Dry January
 

Are you doing it? Have you ever done it?

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

:joker:

I did make plans to stay dry until the first game of rugby in the 6 nations.

But my local team had a big game today to stay top of div 2.

The wheels are off...:dance::dance:

No. January (after my birthday) is a depressing-enough month as it is.

No to dry Jan

I’ve never not been dry

I'm doing dry Jan.....was considering veganuary too but decided against that. I've not bothered with non alcoholic substitutes....just been drinling loads of water. No plans this weekend though....might be different when I'm out next weekend

Might be less depressing if you're healthier at the end of it :hee:

Good stuff :clap2:

Veganuary is certainly one bridge I would not cross, although I am trying to have less red meat

Depending on how you drink it can take up to 10 days to flush out your system

maybe 14 for annie

My son was definitely not having it and too much hassle to cook 2 different meals every night so we are just healthy eating

Good luck with it :love:

:fist: :joker:

I have been massively cutting down on drink for over a year or so now anyway, I don't completely avoid it . But when I drink .... it's just occasionally .

“In a study, scientists report that drinking beer can be good for the liver. I’m sorry, did I
say ‘scientists’? I meant Scottish people.”

It's wet January for me.

I just can't handle all my Christmas alcohol sitting there starring at me saying "drink me"

Lucky you having your own.

I've been peering through windows all week at bottle after bottle, each one saying, "just smash the window and save me"

Nearly did it twice...but stayed proffesional.

I’m healthy enough as it is. To hell with dry January.

That is a hard temptation. I have loads left over. Have hidden it all in cupboards but I know its there :laugh:

i get a lot of good booze Chrimbo, great pressies and as is my nature i like to drink it all, when its done i will have a month off to let my liver regenerate..its not a January but its close

I realise I didn't have a drink over the holidays, my OH only had a couple of beers, as I recall. I might have January off the Ketamine.

Would normally go to the pub for a couple Sunday afternoon - today I have cleaned by bathroom and rearranged my cupboard of excess carrier bags :skull:

Least I am now rewarding myself with a can of Lucky Saint which is a very nice alcohol free beer

A very productive day indeed :laugh:

Don’t you clean on Saturdays?

doesnt look like the mucky pup does no..:hehe:

I was out most of yesterday so nah, should I clean on Saturdays?

I’m disgusted.

It's over!!! :dance: :cheer: :colour: :dance2: :cheer2:

What time is the pub open?

:dance::dance:

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 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

Lies spotted

Tea only for me m8

This months challenge is, can you go the entire month without having pancakes?
