  • Hi,
    I would like to join this January drink free challenge. I had a four-day session from Hogmanay to 3rd January and feel it's now time to address my drinking and a good start would be dry free days for the remaining days of January.
    So please can you add me to the list, at 2/28....

    Hello all, happy Friday! I'm calling 6/31 for today as will be out from 6 this evening at work so no chance of a cheeky glass/glasses of wine for me! I've noticed I'm sleeping better already which can only be a good thing!

    Me too with the sleeping [Deleted User] or at least if I wake up I can go back off pretty quickly. Although did have an episode of night sweats last night - coming up to menopausal age so guessing it's that!
    6/31 for tonight please. Start of the first AF weekend in ages. OH isn't looking forward to it :rotfl:

  • 4/22 please

    Thank you.

    Drinks today and tommorow then mon-thur AF next week. Probably Friday too and sat and sun next week.

    Well done to everyone doing dry January. I imagine that to be quite tough to put it mildly. You have my upmost respect.

    But also the cutting down is brilliant as well. Thanks everyone for posting. xxx

    6/31 for me please. Found yesterday slightly harder, kept thinking I would really like a glass of wine; it's Friday. However onward and upward I hope. Still waking frequently in the night so hoping sleep will improve soon.
