First week of Dry January completed and now on Day 8. Still getting the occasional massive headache and drinking lots of water and tea. I’m managing to go for walks and runs, weather permitting, but the chocolate digestive biscuits are still calling. I’m pleased with how things are going all in all, and it’s great that my…

Agreed @SunnyDays930 ! I don’t think I’ll be giving up the biscuits just yet. My wife and I went for a six mile walk today because the sun finally made an appearance. When we got back, we had a lovely cup of tea, accompanied by Scottish shortbread fingers still left over from Christmas along with other goodies. I think…

Thank you very much for the warm welcome!

Hello everyone and Happy New Year! Thank you for letting me join the group. I am a 66-year-old male from the UK and recently retired. I’m still trying to figure out the retirement thing but am taking the opportunity to reset things slowly. One of these is my relationship with the booze. The relationship with chocolate…

Thank you for the warm welcome @Walela617 and for the link to the sober discussion group. Making myself more publicly accountable would be no bad thing! Best wishes for 2025! Chris

Hello everyone! I would love to join this challenge. I’m a 66-year-old male from the UK hoping to reset in 2025. I do exercise regularly (running, cycling and walking) but this is counteracted by the booze and biscuits! I plan to do Dry January to get on an even keel and see how it goes after that. Looking forward to…

The bad news: this is what my trend weight app had to say this morning: Yes, you read that right…..only 50 more years to go based on how I’ve been doing. I turn 65 in May. 😃 Well your weight app did say “around”. It might be out by a couple of decades, you never know? Onward into 2025!
