I am an adult. I think I know what I want and not what is best for me… so, if I want to drink 12 cups of coffee a day/or eat pretty much the same thing everyday or whatever, it is my choice. I know you are all well intentioned and I am lucky to have friends… I don’t want busybodies. —I Know What’s Best for Me

OP … ok.
If you drink 12 cups of coffee a day & eat the same thing every day !
You don’t have a clue about what’s best for you.
Wait I want to take that clue comment back, I was told a long time ago it takes 99 klicks to make a clue.
You haven’t got a klick !
I hate to nag, but could you learn to write an intelligible sentence?
You should be thankful people care enough to try to help you. It is very difficult to watch a friend make bad choices, when we know better. We all have our vices, but I bet you have so many it makes people cringe.
Eww, OP is one of THOSE people. The ones that eat the same dinner every single night. It’s one thing to have the same breakfast every day since it doesn’t count as a real meal, but add some variety to your life young grasshopper!
depending on what you eat, you could actually be better off.
you’ll be more regular and assuming you get your nutritional needs…
who the fuck are they to say anything?
hint, the top bodybuilders in the world both past and present ate almost identically every single day, same times a day, and same portions that worked for them.
Hell, ronnie coleman took his bcaa’s with his coffee.
though…he didn’t drink more than 4 cups a day.
Maybe those 12 coffees a day are turning you into an insufferable tweaked out jerk.
If they all have cream and sugar I wouldn’t want to be you a few years from now.
If I had to call it, you’re the type who likes to sit around doing the same shit all the time, probably playing video games drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes and/or weed, and doesn’t see anything wrong with that and gets defensive when others see and point out that there clearly is.
I could be wrong…
It’s no one’s business about what you eat or how many coffees you have.
Enjoy your beige life.
12 cups, is that all? fuck, i do 20 plus easy. and i snack all fucking day. do i weigh a ton, nope, am i hyper, nope, am i sleep disturbed,nope. but am i pissed at idiots who whine about inane bullshit, yepper.
OP sounds like a hairy twat. Ugh, be gone! Fall of the edge of the earth already!
You’d be surprised what a little salt in the coffee water will do to staff. LOL.
finally an excuse for sux….
It’s been a long time wondering.
um….er…….THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH COFFEE!!!!
hahaha zzz too true.
What if you replace coffee with rum and coke. Should OP’s friends just mind their business in that case?
