That's great! Just think how you'll feel in a few more days
I slept like *kitten* last night and I think it is because I had a drink every day since the 21st December until the 1st Jan. I think I've forgotten how to go to sleep without it. It should only last a few days though with any luck.

Actually, you've made me think, Laurence. I've put lime or lemon in it before, but I could experiment with other fruit, and maybe even herbs (mint and raspberry?) and spices (ginger?).
Now its starting to sound like a cold version of those weird teas you can get, which I have yet to develop a taste for lol

This is not true because I have not had a drink for over 11 years. It will not cause you to binge. If you really want to stop then stop and do not start back up. I know it will be hard to do but it will be the best for your health. YOU have my full support to stop! Don't look back always look forward!0 -
Doing fine so far. Despite the husband drinking wine - my problem not his! Have a 1.5L bottle that I fill with a bit of squash/cordial and the rest water and just refill it. Use different flavours each time so don't get bored.0

Im in ☺
Had my last drink on the 1st of Jan. I find i drink out of boredom. Once the kids are in bed and im stuck in front of the tv, night after night, thats when i reach for a glass of wine. Problem is one drink turns into 2,3,4 etc. And then i start snacking on junk0 -
I'm in. Longest I've been since I was 16 years old is probably 5-6 days. So this is going to be very interesting! Good luck all0

Welcome everyone
I had a family meal tonight and the wine was flowing and I didn't touch a drop I took a bottle of sparkling apple juice with me and I didn't even miss it after the first drink.0 -
I've been doing this for a few years now...I'm in until Superbowl. Then it's beer, bread, cheese...The Trifecta of goodness I will have done without for a month.0
-
I started December 28th as well but it will extend into March...will have a nice glass of red on my bday.0
-
I started on the 31st. Was doing it anyways but happy to join. Alcohol really kills muscle growth so if that is what you are trying to do then this is the best way to go.0

Day 3
Walking, riding my bike and golfing. Hopefully, I will be able to get to sleep better tonight. Not even a sip of wine since the second. Went to a football party last night and saw a friend who has lost and maintained quite a bit of weight" she is holding steady at 126 and looks absolutely fabulous. Having an inspirational friend who has done this and is looking so very good is a real treat.
Making new goals and keeping with it till the finish line!!0 -
Day 3 here done as well, OH is sick of making me cups of tea though lol0
