Not to be too Disney about it but getting sober is cool as hell, that shit is hard to do
Also I can’t understand how it would make you fat, either. “I stopped drinking alcohol and all this water is making me tubby!”
If you abused any stims that make you lose weight a lot, dropping them usually pushes your bodyweight in the other direction. Know a few people like this. They always relapse
Alcohol is not usually considered a drug.
That is cultural. It’s poison you take to change your mind state and small enough amounts are usually tolerable enough to not cause too much of a problem. I have a drink from time to time but to say otherwise is incorrect.
That said, I’m not sure where I said that it was.
I’m not sure where I said that it was [drugs].
You didn’t say it, the meme said it.
Ok now put it in context to this conversation. The post said he gained weight after he became sober from “drug abuse”. You said it is unlikely to gain weight when you quit abusing alcohol. So therefore… He was not abusing alcohol but some other drug that has a side effect of weight loss. You’re welcome, now you can continue not using your brain.
Oh I just read them as separate things, that’s all.
A drug is literally any substance one consumes for its effects, rather than for sustenance.
Meth is a drug
Ibuprofen is a drug
Marijuana is a drug
Caffeine is a drug
Ketamine is a drug
Alcohol is a drug
not to forget nicotine…
the amount of rehab places that allow for nicotine is nuts
Not disney at all… hardcore af. Also being sober has its own trippiness
I like to be sober on shrooms
And think of all the cool shit you’ve always wanted to do but couldn’t because you were too broke and too high that you can now start.
I’m just not fat yet, and not sober either
It’ll come in time, believe me.
*that
you’re not that fat yet.
I’m just skin and bones man
You could learn a thing or two from me then, my blood pressure is cholesterol
Heaviest I’d ever been was years back when I was deep in the sauce. It really shows in old photos.
I’m packing it back on because I’m old now, but empty alcohol calories were the worst.
I put on like 30+ lbs when I first got sober. I used food to fill the void instead of drugs. But through perseverance and dedication to improve my life I gained 5 more lbs the next year. With hard work and commitment you too can become an undatable adult at 36 years old, it’s never too late
This is all the people from hs who rocked the cookie monster hat.
This hits a little too close to home.
Oh don’t worry, bud… You weren’t cool.
Same, but it was a woman instead of drugs.
love is a helluva drug
Fat from getting sober? Is that a thing?
I’ve heard that some people end up using food as a substitute.
Can confirm, while not drugs I used to smoke like a ton, then when I quit I gained a ton of weight cause i can’t stop eating.
I hate everything about this post
I never thought Harley Race was that young once

But so youthful looking. Gotta be happy about that!
