If you tend to fool yourself with faulty logic in order to indulge, you'll notice the negative consequences of your denial showing up on your body in the form of fat. Any nutritionist will tell you that in the quest to stay in fighting-fit shape, a good diet is half the battle, so you're only sabotaging yourself when you make excuses in order to give in to your cravings. That said, every now and again as part of a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise, you can feel free to treat yourself to a burger or other favorite junk foods -- just be realistic about how often you do it and how much physical activity you're getting. <img src="http://images.askmen.com/grooming/appearance/1273018565_top-10-habits-that-ruin-your-appearance_4.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> No.4 - Drinking too much Alcohol has both short- and long-term effects on your appearance. Because it's a diuretic, alcohol is dehydrating, so engaging in binge drinking (five or more drinks on one occasion) even on one night will make fine lines appear much more pronounced the following day. What's more, swigging back a couple of brewskis every evening is the equivalent of adding several hundred calories to your daily energy intake, which can quickly lead to a beer gut. Over time, regularly consuming more than two drinks a day will leave your skin blotchy and your body haggard -- physical qualities that aren't exactly enticing to the opposite sex. <img src="http://images.askmen.com/grooming/appearance/1273018757_top-10-habits-that-ruin-your-appearance_3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> No.3 - Snacking on processed foods Chowing down on processed foods has repercussions for your entire body. Not only will you pack on pounds, thereby nullifying any effort you put into working out, but you might also have a breakout if your skin is sensitive to processed products. The rule of thumb to follow here is that white colored foods should be avoided, meaning you should steer clear of anything that contains flour, sugar, margarine, or ingredients that have weird chemical names. Snack instead on raw vegetables dipped in hummus, fresh fruit or a couple of handfuls of nuts to keep the munchies at bay. <img src="http://images.askmen.com/grooming/appearance/1273018927_top-10-habits-that-ruin-your-appearance_2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> No.2 - Suntanning without sunscreen The majority of skin damage associated with aging occurs via overexposure to the sun. This fact means that skipping out on sunscreen followed by spending significant time outdoors will put you on the fast-track to leathery, wrinkled skin or worse, melanoma. To protect your skin and slow the formation of future wrinkles, avoid the sun when it's at its hottest around midday. Also, slather on sunscreen every morning in the summer and reapply often if you know you'll be outside for a prolonged period. <img src="http://images.askmen.com/grooming/appearance/1273019129_top-10-habits-that-ruin-your-appearance_1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> No.1 - Smoking As a result of the 4,000-plus chemicals cigarettes contain, 51 of which are known carcinogens, you're literally killing yourself every time you take a drag. When you smoke, free radicals form in your body and these destructive molecules damage your DNA, leading to pale skin with lots of deep lines. Of course, you already knew all that. What you may not know is that you can quit. Begin by weighing the pros and cons of smoking, being truthful about what you enjoy about it. Then try to figure out ways you could get the same benefits without smoking. As well, learn from any past attempts you've made at quitting by examining what you found useful and what you didn't. It's a hard process and you have to find what works for you, but if you persist, even if you relapse, you will eventually succeed.</blockquote>
