Smoking!

gave up a few years ago, started again when my son died. I'll never stop now.

Monthly kebabs and the weekly icecream van that sells warm brownies with proper Mr whippy icecream with warm chocolate sauce in a huge tray and parks opposite my house every Sunday around 7pm 😁

Hold up! That isn't an ice cream van, it's flaming heaven. Wow. 😋licks lips

Wine

Caffeine and ‘bad’ foods- love a McDonald’s, chocolate, crisps etc etc. also second Coca Cola and fizzy drinks!

I’ve never smoked or vaped and could quite happily never drink alcohol again though.

Raves.
Kissing men in their early 20s (I’m 34).
Pain au raisin.

I want your life!

for me it’s white wine

Chocolate( Lindt milk hazelnut)
Coke Zero

EnergyEmoji · 11/08/2024 16:10

It's either wine or chocolate.
I wouldn't give up either without a fight.
I do (usually) manage to restrict them to weekends though.

Pepsi..!! Ice cold full fat Pepsi.

blackrabbitwhiterabbit · 11/08/2024 16:12

Vaping

Liv999 · 11/08/2024 16:13

Coca Cola for me too, can't beat a glass with lots of ice on a hot day

The Sun ( in the sky , not the tabloid )

Pineapple Fanta

Highly Addictive and full of High Fructose Corn Syrup

Sugar
I know 'everything's fine in moderation' but I am not moderate Grin

Even moderation should be applied in moderation!

ArabellaFishwife · 11/08/2024 16:37

Crisps, one hundred per cent.
There are many others. But I can substitute fizzy drinks with super cold water, sack off chocolate and alcohol if I had to. Even swearing off fizzy sweets would be a walk in the park compared to giving up crisps. They are so very, very bad. And so very, very good.

Cake

HouseofHolbein · 11/08/2024 16:48

Alcohol. Mind you I really enjoy it and can go weeks without but generally I don't 🤣🤣

itwillnotopen · 11/08/2024 16:50

Coffee. I can't drink it without a generous spoonful of sugar either so that doesn't help!

HelterSkelter224 · 11/08/2024 16:51

Salt and vinegar crisps. Could just live on them.

catlovingdoctor · 11/08/2024 17:12

Sunbathing and alcohol for me!

Sitting in the sun… not full day baking, but just the sun on me makes me feel better
