I know what you mean.  My chocolate latte’s were such treats in the day!

With alcohol, I just stopped drinking at some point and never missed it.  I can see how it’s relaxing to unwind, but it’s a little different for Asians who don’t metabolize alcohol well. 

In general too though, I’m pretty sure alcohol messed with my sleep quality, and it’s extra, non-nutritious calories to consume, and damages/tires out the body.

Coffee took lots more effort to quit (still drink it occasionally).  But, now I like how my overall energy is actually greater, and I don’t feel worn down later in the day after drinking it.  I also don’t miss that jittery/nervous feeling I’d get sometimes.  And of course, if I drank coffee too late in the day, it too would mess with sleep quality.

I think it’s a big difference, especially when one cuts out many of these things, it adds up.  A few years ago, it would’ve been inconceivable to me to quit espresso drinks.  lol.

Are you thinking about quitting anything?  Try it!  :)
