    I work at the craft beer store, but we have sodas etc. so it's easy to buy one, I used to buy me at least one sparkling soda per day when I got thirsty. I got really addicted to energy drinks last year, basically my morning was like that: wake up, bathroom, coffee, way to work and first thing at work was me drinking energy drink before I did anything smh. I decided to quit cause wtf, YOLO.

    Before making my own meals there was a fast food place near by my work place, they have pizzas, hamburgers and all that good stuff and it's cheap so... My wife used to make meals, but she's as busy as me, so I don't want to make her responsible for my diet at all.

    I'm surprised I'm so skinny, but I started to feel bad, mostly tired, so it was my wake up call.

    I'm only 2 weeks deep into completely different lifestyle so pray for me lol. Cooking stuff is taking a lot of time, but ngl, s--- tastes better!

    Yeah it being so easy to get is a b---- lol... I work at an office, government building so we can get free cold water and coffee.. really helps a lot tbh. And no s-----y drinks around except at the company restaurant.

    Does ur wife cook meals for herself or? Or you dont eat together? Since u ate mostly fastfood just curious what she ate and eats.

    Yeah time is a b----. I love to experiment w food but when I'm home at like 18.00 I dont have time or in the mood to spend so much time on diner lol. I barely eat meat though, as in, I mostly eat chicken or fish. Less calories and I also like it a lot more. Not that I cant enjoy a juicy burger every once in a while tho.

    Damnit I'm getting hungry lmfao

    If we're talking pilsner, Jupiler is probably my beer of choice. I enjoy Hertog Jan as well. And if I have to, I'll drink Bavaria.
    Then there is Palm, which is one of my favourites, but is not a pilsner of course.

    I like the darker beers too, especially when autumn kicks in. Grolsch Herfsbok is great, one of the best Bok-beers available (unlike their pilsner, lol). La Trappe and Leffe are widely available over here and have some great (darker) beers!

    I had Brand Dubbel Bock today, but it's a little too hoppy for my taste (I guess that's what Brand is known for).

    I'm looking for more ambitious job now, so I hope it'll help me even more to get in shape (no pun intended). Free water and coffee would help a lot lol.

    Me and my wife cook together on weekends, mostly Sundays. I'm usually making some chicken or pork, fish more often, some veggies etc. She adds some of these looks-and-taste-like-meat-but-thats-not-meat things vegetarian people eat and she adds it to her meal. We both work different hours so it's hard to eat together besides dinners, that's why I ate fast foods - I have a discount in that little place next to my store, so why not lol.

    But when she's home earlier she cooks some bomb a--- meals, thank God she's not one of those maniac vegans trying to force other people to "save animals".

    Cooking is a b----, like you said, this is taking too much time smh

    I'm still working in that beer shop, but I'm trying to move into IT, that's what I was aiming for since high school, but welp, I started working in a bar, then this store. I have an offer to work in one office, but I'm still thinking about it. I also want to go to the university next year, so yeah, still planning.

    Spot on with that fish, supermarket ones taste like mud mostly, yuck.

    I def don't drink it for the taste. It's a tool. But smoother than Grolsch so not the worst!
