Don’t you clean on Saturdays?

Yay - well done!

I have decided to continue until my birthday - quite enjoyed the sobriety and feeling great every morning :laugh:

Obviously I reserve the right to change my mind

I'm sort of doing it this year until I go skiing for a few days on the 19th when I'll pause it :hee:

One week down and I am enjoying a Moretti Zero with the football this evening. I never thought I'd do it before but had started cutting down on drinking towards the end of last year anyway so I'm not missing it yet, still early days though

Anyone also have any good recommendations for non alcoholic beers :think: the Moretti is okay but has a bit of a funny aftertaste


I am so naive !!

I honestly thought that this thread was about the weather .. I was just gonna say it’s not stopped raining round our way throughout January

Thanks, you too :love:

I actually have quite enjoyed the sobriety too and it's been good for the beer belly. I will have a pint after work today but will generally try to have more sober days I think now I have discovered the wonderful world of alcohol free beer

It's all just good intentions of course though

Haven't touched a drop of alcohol in years, don't miss it at all, certainly don't miss the horrible hangovers

I'm afraid the challenge is just for people in the UK.

The Irish challenge is no pizza.

I think I'd manage that too, don't eat Pizza very much :p Never shop bought and very very rarely get it as a Take Away because it doesn't agree with Gav.

I've not had a drink in more than 3 weeks now. My energy levels have gone up 10 fold. And i've been a million times more productive.

And yes, those hangovers. So nice to wake up and feel fresh :laugh:

I think the last alcohol I had was a wee mulled wine at Christmas so turns out I've succeeded at this challenge without even knowing it was a challenge! I'm less of an avid teetotaller than I was a few years back, but I still don't drink often at all... just not part of my life these days I guess :shrug:.

Can't do the pancake challenge as my kids would go ham if we didn't do pancake day at the end of feb. And I'm not cooking them if I can't have one :fist:.

I'm also not avoiding pizza for a month - that's utter madness.
