My god are there ever a lot of alcohol-dependent people here...
(Not those who say they enjoy a drink here and there, and have no desire to give it up. the ones who say they can't possibly imagine giving it up for a month. That's a substance dependency, people...)
Impressive.0 -
There are far too many Fridays and Saturdays in September. I am giving up shaving, though.
This really made me laugh out loud, how I would LOVE to not have to shave!! Anyway, I only have a beer or two on weekends anyway and hockey season doesn't start until October so I AM IN!!0 -

Sounds very hard. I'd be down seeing as alcohol is my big issue but I know it would last till the weekend.0

Moderate alcohol consumption (no more than 1-2 drinks a day) is actually very healthy and good for weight loss. Barring an addiction, there's no good reason to give it up.
Any other alcohol, and any alcohol in women is certainly no problem in moderation, but doesn't do you any benefits.
If you enjoy it, I'm not saying there's any reason you have to give it up. But don't kid yourself on benefits.0 -

What I don't understand is why that sort of addiction is considered so acceptable.0 -

Making that ridiculously callous claim in this thread insults and disrespects the millions of people around the world suffering and recovering from alcoholism.0 -

If I started a "Starbucks free September" thread. People WOULD chime in and say they couldn't give it up. Some would even say they were addicted....0 -

I live in Wisconsin. That'd be considered blasphemy and I would be barred from the state. Especially in FOOTBALL season?! :P0

Well, I hardly ever drink anyway, so if the hubby buys a bottle of wine for our anniversary in September, who am I to refuse?0
