On The Wagon For January

[Deleted User]

Going out for dinner tonight and always have atleast 5 pints of Cobra......

Will i change it for diet coke or water...

:-{

Maddy.

I think you should try, the more you do it the easier it wil get SH :O)

[Deleted User]

Maddy - your correct but just one........


PLEASE

Maddy.

Only you know if you will stop at one - only you can set your targets and you have nothing to prove to anyone but yourself.

Its your choice - this thread will support you but you have to be honest with yourself

[Deleted User]

ok.....

Water it is, how are you finding it..?

Maddy.

Not too bad but TBH I do it every year two weeks is my critical time and if I am bored - struggling with chocolate and crisps more, and I have to lose weight

My friends are now trained in the fact I don't drink in january - took a few years though :O)

Maddy.

J2O in a pint glass topped up with soda water

lime and soda water - refreshing

bitter lemon and soda - goes down a little slower

coke - small quantities

Lots of alternatives

X-KKD

You can go without tonight Scottish. Go on - we have faith in you!



(Even though we don't really know you ;-))

X-KKD

Some good suggestions Maddy.

I've been having G&T without the G when I go out. Get some ice and lemon and no-one knows any different! (Except me unfortunately!)

Maddy.

Scottish you wouldn't have started the thread if you didn't mean to do something about you drinking whether we know each other or not its a very public declaration

M..o.use

I really enjoy a pint of grapefruit and soda, quite tart but very nice.

[Deleted User]

Nothing for Me or Mr H so far. But as I don`t actually drink that much, maybe it is not such a big deal.

( I felt I was really overdoing it at nights out over Christmas when I drank a whole bottle of wine )

[Deleted User]

YES,

yous are correct no drink for me tonight..


KKD - how do you not know me i have been here for years...

Maddy.

I can imagine grapefruit and soda would be good one because if its tart it won't go down as fast as some of the sweeter ones

[Deleted User]

Good luck tonight SH, although it sounds like you are really committed if you managed a trip to the golf club and didn`t drink.

X-KKD

Mouse, grapefruit and soda sounds like you - quite a tart but very nice! :-p

(Runs for cover, or rather hobbles for cover!!)


Scottish, although we talk to peps on here all the time I still feel like I don't really know people all that well. I suppose most of us are a little different in 'real life' than on here. Did you do the NB today?

M..o.use

Bloody cheek!

[Deleted User]

KKD - i know what you are saying, I never ran today as the golf was a better option..

I will be running next week for deff...

What about you...?

[Deleted User]

bloody cheek what..?

JARS( she )

Still four wheels on the JARS wagon...I would have loved a glass of wine last night

..but I held out as did Mr J.

X-KKD

Wuv ya really Mouse! x

I should be running if a) OH hasn't forgotten, b) I can shift this throat infection (week 3 now!)

Kencing Terus

I've had no booze, no caffeine and no chocolate. Instead of feeling great I feel tired and grouchy. But I think I can hold out from all of them until Paris Mara.

Maddy.

It will get better Kencing Terus - your body just has to adapt

KT - typical signs that your body is detoxing. it will pass don't worry.
im on the retox diet

running caz

Its crazy the affects it has. I've been really irritable even though I'm still drinking. However, I'm drinking at least a quarter of what I was last year and about an eigth of the amount I was during the second half of december. Even the cutdown has affects on mood!!

...... seem to cheer up oncealcohol passes the lips though .... funnt that!! ;-)

Kencing Terus

Thanks. I hope that means my clothes will become looser and my legs will run faster. I'm doing Regents park 10k tomorrow so will see if I'm faster than NYD 10km after a week free of everything nice.

Sweetest Thing

Evening.

Day 6 going okay. Sadly, I seem to be compensating by eating lots of chocolate! Almost got through all the Christmas chocs now.

Doing the ironing helped pass the time earlier this evening..... :-)
