Just found this thread and just to say well done to everyone. I have been doing a dry january for the first time. alch uses too much money and it's not healthy to drink alone lol.

So nearly gave in tonight. Had given myself "permission" for a couple of bottles of beer. Got home and Mrs BHB gave me a good telling off - so didn't go and see MR T !


So 20/31 please Shaggy ..... I know my place LOL!

debjay

13 and 14 for yesterday and today

14/25 here.

I used my last spare day on Friday as I felt like a few beers after work. In the end I had more than a few and felt terrible all day Saturday. That means to hit my target of 25 I need to be AF for the rest of the month. That should be fairly easy as I'm down to digging for money down the back of the sofa as I haven't been paid since the Friday before Xmas and it's not pay day again until the 30th.

16 for Sunday, Monday and this evening.

20/31 please, Shaggy.

I couldn't have kept going for as long as I did doing something this evening without my B3ck$ B1u3 so I am eternally grateful to everyone who's posted about it on this thread.

For those that are doing Dry January, linky below to an episode of Inside Health on Radio 4 this evening about the effects of knocking the boozing on the head for a month. It's about 23 minutes in.

15/18 for me please Shaggy. Thanks.

Everyone is doing really well - the dry January stalwarts are fantastic, and almost on the home straight. This thread is really motivational.
