Cutting Down Alcohol Thread

I've not had a chance to be on here much at all this week, I'm covering a site in Aberdeen and it's been frantic. Back to my normal site for a few weeks from Monday then moving home permanently at the end of June
Hopefully we won't get back into any bad habits with the move home. Mrs fatrab wants to lose weight and money will be a bit tighter as I will lose my subsistence allowance, so we'll be living frugally for a while until we get into a routine.
8/30 for today please You can have results or excuses, but not both.Challenge - be 14 Stone BY XMAS!

This thread has made so much difference to me over time. I will be drinking on holiday but I know I won't be drinking to excess. So no more embarrassing behaviour or hangovers.:D What's more is I know I'll be able to slip back into my AF routine when I get back.:D
