i'll post for ya lol
Fitness friendly cure: Drink as much water as you can before you go to bed (if your not violently throwing up) so that you can flush the alcohol out of your system and then you won't be dehydrated in the morning.
If that doesn't work, I'll open a beer, drink half of it, and pour the other half out in respect for the "homies." IDK what it is, but if you drink half a beer in the morning, it helps. and yes i know it sounds retarded
(my favorite, but don't do as much now
) Non Fitness friendly: Next morning, go buy the greasiest burger you can find and eat it with a coke. Your hangover will be cured before you finish your burger lol.

True, but it really takes the fun out of drinking.
Yes.....
When referring to excessive drinking: Throwing up, being severely dehydrated, having a headache, an over all feeling like utter crap, and shifting your liver into unhealthy overdrive, is whole lot of post-drinking fun.
Makes the previous night of alcohol induced behavior modifications worth it.
Of all the calls for service I had went on when I was police officer, alcohol induced behavior modifications without question, was the number #1 problem child, which was only enhanced with the "type" of personality behind the consumption.
One enters a completely different world when a police officer, that isn't "really" transparent to the public, though Mr. and Mrs. Public will claim to know it, they really don't have a friggen clue.
Dealing with it face to face, and walking the steps making decisions on-the-fly while knee deep in sh^t, is far different then Mr. and Mrs. Public being an arm-chair quarterback with an opinion seeing something on the news or what they may read; the vast majority isn't even in the newspapers or news.
I have no problem with responsible drinking of alcohol, its the part where the person "thinks" prior to the consumption that they can control their behavior modification, when in fact they cannot and they hurt themselves or someone else, that I have a problem with--that they would not have otherwise have done, if they had not drank alcohol.
Some may go a time and be just fine. But, it only takes one life changing event no matter how many times you think you had controlled it in the past. Most decisions thinking one can handle it are made prior to the drug's influence; however, when the drug kicks in (as when they start drinking) for some they lose this control, and never quite correlate difference between the two or simply don't care cause' they want that "feeling" back despite the negative aspects of the hang-over.
Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
Three words of persons whom consume alcohol--in excess.
1. Wash
Lets go have a great time, and drink passed the point of fun, leading to the GREAT DOWNER period!
Hell YEA!
2. Rinse
Oh, I am sick, I am never going to drink again. Throwing up in toilet, headaches, dehydration, shaking, and feeling like utter crap. Doesn't train, and could even lead to over-eating/under-eating.
3. Repeat.
Irony-eventually becomes detached from the rinse period, and ready to wash, rinse, and repeat again.
This will be repeated as often as necessary until a full internal commitment is reached within to solve one's puzzle-of--appropriate frequency and application in life, unless.....there is a life changing event during the alcohol consumption period.
I have worked many vehicle accidents when I was a police officer, and many involved "intoxicated" drivers, with body parts in and outside the respected vehicles. And, you can always "tell" which vehicle had a person that had been drinking alcohol---just by the smell.
Not by the spilled containers (there isn't ANY--in the scenario I am giving), BUT BY THE SPILLED STENCH of the blood. It can smell like PURE alcohol (and thus PART of the reason the breath of the person is laced with the smell)
I remember going to autopsies on a few of the driver/passengers, and some haven't had alcohol (according to the finding of the examiner) at least 3 to 4 hours PRIOR to the accident.
It may sound like I am against alcohol consumption. I am actually not against it, necessarily. I have just walked among the public for 12 years, and have experienced the variables of it, that others form an opinion on reading on the Internet, TV, and other media.
When my children were growing up, and became old enough, I made the decision to be pro-active on this subject; however, I left them the "choice" as I felt stuffing their throat with it would just simply lead to rebellion (over simplifying here). In there teens (and though I was not regularly active, I was still a reserve officer time to time), I took them on patrols with me while I was answering calls for service, and we had many educated talks on this subject matter over the years. Along the way, it was their "choice" not to drink, and to this very day, where the "degree" of responsibilities to this subject has left me as a father (because the eldest is on his own and an adult), they still do not drink, and I never had a problem with them when minors. Believe me, I am not naive. They made educated decision based on the brain, and not based on "feeling", and have far more inside them than most at their age bracket, and enjoy life to its fullest potential.
If you can do it responsibly. Fine. If you can't, get rid of it, before it hands you an ass whooping.

Thanks Chillin, but by hang over I don't necessarily mean bed ridden, spewing and
shaking, I just mean having that dehydrated, sickly feeling one gets after a couple to many.
I have to agree with many of your statements.
I kind of started this thread as a bit of a joke, but I am interested to hear what ppl have to say on the matter!
I don't know why the fish cake works, but it does.

Drinking a lot of water before bed is your first step and rehydrating further the next day is the other step. Sweating out the remaining alcohol helps and the foods you eat will offer some relief.
Of course the best cure is to not get drunk enough to be hungover in the first place.

I dont do this often, but i know it makes me feel MUCH better.
Like people have said, drink plenty of water before going to bed,
Eat Clean the next day,
Plenty of sleep,
Go for a run or something that gets you working.
BUT, personally i usually.
Dont drink much water before bed when drunk,
Eat mcdonalds all day,
Not much sleep,
Lay around all day feeling sh1t.

Hahahahah, x2.
LOL.
Though its been what seems like an eternity since I even had a drink with dinner, I can be quite the goof-ball (joking, and what-not) with a few extra "drinks" in me. I seem to be one of "those" happy drunks when I have a few too many, and not a quite-riot when alcohol is in my diet.

Im telling you, a multivitamin and a bottle of gatorade before bed and you will feel amazing in the morning. I recently graduated from college and i was very sad that i figured this little trick out my last semester of my senior year.....all those horrible mornings freshman year could have been avoided. BLAST!!!
Seriously though this is the trick for no hang over.

yup, i agree. take a multivitamin before bed and drink water, sleep, and tylenol the next day....LOL!
I saw a program were they tested diffrent methods. Hydrateing before bed made little difference, drinking water between drinks was the most effective and super effective was an Asprin, and hydrating between drinks.
My super recipe is as follows (I finished Univeristy year, so I have plent of practice, smoothing it out as I enter the real world)
Drink lots of water between drinks (never happens)
# note, two glasses of water is ideal, and it also makes you feel bloated so you drink less
Take multi vitamins before you sleep
Eat some greasy food next day (as it soaks up the remaining alcohol, but warning this food will stored as fat!)
Drink Gatorade type drinks
Eat fruit salad
Eat two pates of roast like I did yesterday
If you smoke, all effects are about 40% worse.

I've felt like crap the next day, but never suffered from the horrible-ness some people do. Never had a headache....but even that, even with some of the most retarded of nights, is a rarity.
After vomiting in the toilet one night (I never vomit post-drinking), I swore I would never get to that point ever again. That was over 5 years ago. I get a good buzz and stop or sip the rest of the night to maintain that buzz. But getting sloshed is just stupid and too expensive.
Oddly enough, since I'm such a cheapass when it comes to some things, I don't like going out to bars much and prefer doing other things with my money. Being a cheapass has kept me from doing drugs and being an alcoholic...so I thank my mom for instilling that curse/blessing onto me, lol. But then, I'll go out and buy a $3K record player the same night....so it only applies to somethings, haha.

My favorite cure is to not drink. I admit I never understood people who complained all the time about the hangovers they got, then would repeat the same thing every time they went out, over & over & sound like a broken record. It did seem to help them if they stopped at the greasy food hangout afterwards & wolfed down a big plate of it.
I used to drink but later quit due to meds & health problems, but I never got hangovers! Honestly, I didn't, except once. I mixed a bunch of different alcohols, drinking in excess w/ all of them one New Year's Eve, ranging from different wines w/ a huge dinner, drinks, shots, then champagne at the top of the hour~~~needless to say I got sick. :drooling1: I mean really sick. :action14: And the next day, and night, and you get the idea. I never drank like that again during my drinking days.
P.S. Could feeling bad in any way after drinking might be your body telling you it doesn't want you to do that anymore?
