Well I'm not doing well at all!! 🤦♀️ I've drunk every day BUT I have changed my drink from brandy and cola (full fat) to white wine and diet lemonade so although it's still a daily thing I've gone from half a litre of brandy a day to half a bottle of wine - not great but I'm counting it as progress! 😉DNF: £708.92/£1000
