    But I DO want to drink... :D That's the problem!

    I'm actually going to do Dry July (not sure if that's a thing everywhere or just in Australia - I had never heard of it until I moved here...) this year. So I'll not drink for the month of July and hopefully raise a bit of money for charity at the same time.

    I hope you see the results I got when I went dry for April because it will inspire you to keep at it. I lost weight, gained restful sleep, and my temperament was more stable. It lead to me cutting way back now with just 5-6 a week total - used to be 2-4 a NIGHT!

    That's great!

    I'm actually a bit of a binge drinker. I don't drink on weeknights (or Friday) because I work for an American company and have to get up very early to start work to fit in better with that timezone (and USA Friday is Australian Saturday :'( ). So if I do drink it's a fair bit on a Saturday night. Getting older though, the hangovers are just SO MUCH worse than they used to be and I'm finding that really tempers the amount I allow myself. This is definitely one of the reasons my weight goes up over the weekend.

    I'm definitely looking forward to not drinking for a month to see what difference it makes in weight loss - those booze calories are just too much!
