Pub Crawl - Please help!

Tip the bartender to fill your shots with water instead? lol. If you don't think your family and friends are going to let you not drink, then maybe it would be best to not go.

If your heart is really into it though, you could always exercise twice as much for the rest of the week? I am also doing T25! You could do the workouts twice or maybe add some other exercise.

A few suggestions;

Keep a non-alcoholic drink in your hand, so you don't look like you need a drink. Soda water and a slice of lime is delicious.

Alternate an alcoholic beverage with a non-alcoholic beverage. There's no reason why you should miss out just because you're trying to lose weight. Just do your research and make good choices. Everything in moderation.

Make the calorie goal a weekly goal this week. Work hard, keep a good deficit monday through friday, and use the surplus on the weekend. Or make the week a maintenance week.

Or just have a day off. Alot of people do that once a month or similar.

A trick I learned: if you want to go out and have fun but you don't want to drink, the best solution is to always have a drink in your hand! Seriously. Order a diet coke (discretly) and then whenever someone asks you if you need a drink say "no thanks I am good" and take a drink. They will move on They will simply assume there's rum or something in the glass.

I am not a big drinker, but I love to socialize. I used this method many times in university and it always worked I know some people will disapprove of this method and say it is dishonest (because I guess it isn't) however it is a great way to avoid the peer pressure and awkward "well why won't you drink?" conversations.
