Hi there,

On day 13 of my own personal 30 day challenge. Calorie controlled day, about 1700 daily, this means NO alcohol.

Damn, I realised this morning, I have not gone 14 days totally alcohol free since I was 18!!!

Feel good though, only drawback is my 55 year old body is creaking a bit at my exercise regime, might have to back it down a touch.

    Why does 1700 calories have to mean no alcohol when a glass of cava fr'instance is only 95 calories and a pint of lager is 180? What I mean is if you really want a drink have one, just make it work. If you don't don't

    Creaking .. LOL

    Thanks for the replies both!

    The alcohol thing is personal. I always get tempted to eat crap when I drink, and usually one turns to four, so easier for me to say no.

    Like the 27 Jon, kind of looking forward to it!

    Cheers, Ray
