Leaving out smoking and drinking, do you have a habit that you feel is affecting your life negatively?

I definitely have a pop habit that I keep trying to quit. Three to four sodas a day. I will go thirsty for hours if I can't get to have my favorite, Orange Crush.It doesn't matter the weather and even if there is something else readily available.

I will drive out of my way to get one. I have my special places in town and I know where the cheapest ones are. I will leave home and drive into(20 minutes one way) town just to get one and on the weekends I make sure I am stocked.

I feel this impacts my life in a negative way 1. On my pocket book, and 2.My health with so much sugar and not enough hydration. I also realize that I have a very addictive personality (I am thinking compliments of an alcoholic father) and try to control it by making my addictions pretty innocuous.

Still, it bugs me.

Yes, I do have such a habit and while it does not include smoking or drinking, I think it could in the long run negatively affect my health if I do not make certain changes. My weakness is tasty foods and sweets. I have a very demanding palate and I thoroughly enjoy flavorful meals.

Of course, most of us could make similar claims, but having this habit, I think could lead to the formation of poor eating habits, since most flavorful foods are often laden with salts, fats, and sugars. I also love sweet foods, such as chocolates and ice creams. I used to workout almost every day for 1 to 2 hours to maintain somewhat of a balance between what I intake and how active I am.

However, in the past 4 years, my activity level slowly decreased ( due to a number of factors, including full-time schooling, decreased availability of fitness activities/equipment, and so on) and I have not failed to notice the result of this: I ended up gaining almost 30 pounds more over the stretch of 4 – 5 years. I am a bit more active today, however, I find myself slipping into cycles, during which I am very motivated for a certain period of time to eat right and exercise, and others during which I fail to care whether I peel myself off the couch or not.

My diet is probably not as good as it should be. I've been making a conscious effort to change the way I eat here lately and improving my son's and husband's diet also. I've never been really into sweets but ooey, gooey, rich, or cheesy is my downfall.

I too am a horrible house keeper, I also don't like to cook though I'm good at it. Over all it makes me feel sort of like a bad wife as the house is generally messy and my husband cooks dinner 90% of the time.. but he got laid off and hasn't found work yet so.. I figure I have until he goes bad to work to enjoy the private chef and break my laziness habit.

I have the same problem with housework. I've been embarrassed when people unexpectedly show up at the door and I pretend they've disturbed me from my nap so I don't have to let them in. But then, when I go visit others, I find that there are varying degrees of clean and tidy, and maybe I judge myself too harshly.

Maybe my bad habit isn't not doing housework, but procrastination. It just seems bad when you procrastinate cleaning out the litter box or taking out the garbage.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
