It was difficult driving past the pub on the way home from the gym tonight, but I managed not to pop in. I'm determined to last until Friday 6th. But I could really murder a pint of real ale right now! :blush:

Like you both, I also want to still drink, but not as much. The 'hard Tuesday' example sounds just like me. My plan is to not drink this weekend, even though some of my friends who also abstained for January are calling it a day on Saturday, and not drink next week in the work day evenings. Then I'm going out on a birthday…

^^ this. As a rule of thumb, I try not to eat back more than half of the calories that MFP credits me for exercise, to allow a margin for error.

100 mins in the gym. Cross trainer, weights then stationary bike.

Another weekend gone, and still dry. I was moaning to my cycling partner that I didn't feel any different fitness wise, and he was just chuckling away. Eventually, he said 'you do realise we've done the last 15 miles 19 mins faster than last time we did this route (which was just after I had started dry january)? So, what…

lol, that is class. Wish I had thought of that, I might have to steal your idea! :smiley:

Day 18 for me, and my third Friday. Still getting my mates texting me photo's of the guest beer at my local pub, but I'm not tempted. I don't think I've been this long without any beer whatsoever since I started drinking the stuff ~ I've had periods where I've cut down to a few pints a week, but never total abstinence. I'm…

I like Lidl's Green tea with lemon, if I want a little caffeine perk, otherwise its Lidl's Lemon & Ginger or Aldi's Reviving Peppermint. I picked up a carton of Taylors Camomile & Vanilla today for a bit of variety, but I've no idea if I'll like it. I'm hoping it will be nice and relaxing.

Yep, went to the gym after work, and left about 8pm. I do this every MOn, Wed and Fri. Tuesday is a running (outside) day, and I run between 4 - 5k, depending on which route I take. Thursday should be a rest day, but if I'm feeling strong I'll do a run like Tuesday. Saturday and Sunday are reserved for my biggest passion,…

I don't use milk hardly at all,but I like it in my coffee. Living on my own, I would find that the milk would go off before I'd used it, so started drinking green tea becasue it meant I didn't need to keep milk in stock. As my palate has changed, I know prefer green tea to coffee or black tea, but I can't honestly say I've…

Well, had my weigh in today I've lost more than I would have expected. Not sure if its that I'm staying off the booze, or the fact that I'm not in the pub so I go to the gym / for a run / bike ride, but either way I'm happy. :smiley:

For me, when I say that I like to try and avoid 'processed' foods, I mean ones that have been subjected to some process in their manufacture that you couldn't / wouldn't replicate in the home kitchen OR foods that have an ingredient in them that I consider 'iffy', which are also usually ones that you wouldn't use at home.…

Last January, it was very obvious, but this time, not so much., which is great. Last year, you couldn't get on a treadmill in the bury 'after work' couple of hours, but it hasn't been like that this January. So I'm not moaning :smiley: However, as has been said, everyone has a right to give it a go if they pay their fees,…

Working till late last night, out of bed at the crack of dawn today, 170 mile drive, couple of hours work and 170 miles home. Boy was I GASPING for a beer when I got home today. Usually, I would go to the gym to take my mind off it (was nearly closed, not worth it) or go for a bike ride / run (howling wind and rain. No…

I now log every day (since 5th Jan) because the last time I used MFP is worked..... until I started slacking in logging. I find constant logging not only makes me think more about how much I eat and drink, but also what I eat and drink, i.e. I eat more healthily. It also spurs me on to exercise more, which is my main goal…

I've got my last 9lbs to go, so happy to support anyone. FR sent.
