Giving Up/Cutting Down Alcohol Thread Part 17

Oh. Forgot to add if you wear a fitbit check your bpm heart rate. Mine has dropped from 71 to 62 in just six days of no alcohol.

Up to 2 days for June. Back in uk now. 

Getting additional help for my addiction so won’t be on here that much this month but hopefully will be updating for time to time with some good totals. 

Need to do it this time for my family and for myself also. Have to beat it now and really have had enough.

All the best @alt80. Hope all goes well. 🤞

Hi everyone, I used to contribute to this thread many years ago (although possibly under a different name prior to the site revamp??), and after an indulgent but enjoyable half-term definitely need to get back on the wagon! 

Partly because I am currently paying £14.95 a month to WW - I lost a stone and a half with them last year, but have basically ignored it for the last few months and that glass or two of wine per evening certainly adds up! Have put roughly half a stone back on, which isn’t that bad but am determined to get rid. 

Been trying to decide on my target for June, think I’m going to go for 20 as that gives me some leeway (ideally I’d go for 30 but we’ll see). I only have one ‘drinking’ event planned for this month but I’m planning to drive as it’s tricky to get there by public transport. 

So 2/20 for June so far, thank you.

Hi again, been a bit absent. I have decided to not drink at all in June to try and hit my weight loss goals.

Up to 6 days so far

Good luck all.

Went out for a meal with DD1 and her partner,GD1 and her husband and their 20 month old twins,who actually behaved quite well. Lovely time,and DD1s partner set a glass of whiskey before me. Only one unit,and with loads of ice,which I loathe,I like my spirits straight. I sipped it slowly over the hour we were there,and left about a quarter of the now diluted stuff. All I could think of was not that I wanted it badly or wanted more, but that it spoiled my 55 days in a row  and I wont get a gold star this month!

Fortunately I put a 25 day target,so I hope I can get my icecream,barbecue and kite!

so put me down for 4/25
