If you think you have a problem with alchohol, you probably do...just saying.
And what was the point of that exactly? I think the OP made it clear that this is not that kind of group. I'd like to do it because not drinking makes it easier to hit my fat loss and fitness goals; plus I was already thinking about doing it anyway, and it's always more fun with a group!0 -
I really need to do it so it will be a huge challenge for me! I moved to Maputo 5 mths ago and need a glass of red wine every night!0

Nice thread! I've cut back alot this year, no more mid-week drinks. I would love to challenge myself to have a completely dry month. I'm in0

Not to be argumentative, but the OP stated this was a "challenge." If someone doesn't drink anyway, doesn't seem like much of a challenge to me. That's like me saying I won't smoke a cigarette for the next 30 days. I don't smoke so I can guarantee you that won't happen. Just an observation. Carry on.
I had that thought as well...
Oh heck....can't I still support you guys, even if I'm not a drinker?0 -

Just because someone drinks and wants to cut back a bit doesn't mean they have a problem with alcohol. Alcohol = empty calories, empty delicious calories but empty all the same. I'm cutting back on alcohol to help reach my body composition goals0 -
can you guys plz call it OCSOBER when it starts.
I don't want to join though. There are too many birthdays, I'm moving into a new house, and ofc halloween. I just wanted to suggest the name for it.0 -

OCSOBER? That is absolutely genius, I am in. My bf and I have planned a fun weekend in the middle of October but I think this will be good for me. And I've thought about only drinking water for a month as a challenge so this is my chance!0

I'm in! I really need to cut down, and this is a good time of year to do it - after the summer (when most drinking occurs) and before the holidays. I blame alcohol for getting me off track my goals and causing me to regain 20 of the 30 pounds I originally lost with MFP 2 years ago, and also for changing my body composition
I haven't had a drink in 5 nights...can I count that??0 -
Out.0

Seeing as how the last time I consumed any alcohol was December last year, do I win by default?
Oct 23, 2011, so, I guess not. but good job on not drinking!0 -
I'm drinking right now.0
-
I'm in. I'm not supposed to be drinking alcohol anyway due to the antidepressant I'm on. (Gotta love anxiety and depression... not).
Feel free to add me as a friend on here!0 -
It's up! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/16684-oct-sober-2013
Just started classes again this week, so schedule was a bit hectic0 -
Should be "easy" for me since the only beer I have is ginger beer :happy:0
-
I will get on board, I have been thinking the past few days to challenge myself to drink only water and juices (fresh not fake sugary ones) and cut out diet sodas, carbonated waters, and wine so this could help in the motivation area.0

i think this needs to be done after football season...Roll Tide. starting in Janurary, its almost 8 months of no drinking.0

Lol. No problem. I haven't had a drink since 1/3/91. Getting through October should be a breeze!0
