Giving up/ Cutting Down Alcohol Thread Part 16

maggiem

Declaring early again so 9/18 for Thursday - yippee half way there!

I know exactly what you mean Maman and Arkers. I'm doing food shopping Thursday afternoons as shops seem relatively quiet but then I do feel as though it should be Friday. I also find it harder on very sunny days as I do enjoy a glass of wine in the garden, almost like being on holiday. I suspect that may be our holiday this year anyway!

14/31 for me please Cathybird
Edited as it just occurred to me that I am also tackling my weight and have lost half a stone. There's probably a connection with being AF, as the last time I was AF I also managed to successfully lose weight. I know alcohol has calories but it isn't just that as I never drank much. But I always managed a bag of crisps with wine and the next day I craved carbs and that craving took at least a week to get back to normal. Then wine again and the cycle continues. Also fewer sod-it moments with food and drink. Strange how I never noticed this before! Doh me

True, it's not just the calories in alcohol but all the fry-ups you've got to eat to get rid of your hangover too Oh well, in my experience anyway

SNAP! I put my shopping off until tomorrow. I may have to queue for hours but it's worth it.

7/10 AFDs please Cathy
