I am going to do it this year and might extend till my birthday in March. I only drink at weekends but going to knock that on the head for a bit. I don't sleep well and rarely sleep past 6am so hoping if I have an alcohol detox it may help.

Anyone else doing it or maybe Veganuary?

Might do a couple of weeks, half dry January? just a Christmas detox

[Cherie]

Can I do dry second half of Jan, I am away going away on Monday until the 11th, I am back on plan on Slimming world as dont want to come back to having put lbs back on so any alcohol will be very on plan so I suppose its more or less dry Jan tbf

[Cherie]

oh snap with me and Neem on second half dry Jan we could start a new trend

[GoldHeart]

I rarely drink anyway, only at special occasions like Christmas etc.

Dry day

[Swan]

Yeah i am. Been drinking way too much recently. Alright at the time, but such a massive downer otherwise.

Im doing 6 months sober (gonna try my hardest). Last year, i got my 6 pack back, good eating (1 cheat day a week), lots of walking and working out.

Im gonna start a "lets go" thread in the new year. Eat well, drink non, walk, lift weights, move etc. A thread where we can encourage, give tips, will each other on.

That sounds like a great idea.

I don't often drink, but when I do there is normally some sort of calamity.

I went out for a Christmas brunch in Birmingham and somehow ended in Manchester with no idea how I got there. No other trains back and hotels full so it cost me £370 in a taxi to get home which was 113 miles away

It doesn't bother me to not drink, it makes me feel quite down afterwards anyway.

Looking forward to getting back into a healthy routine where I'm eating better and exercising

I went there 7 years ago, I didn't sit down for the meetings but I went to get weighed every week, kept me motivated

The meetings can be handy with tips on what to eat to stay on plan if going out for dinner

I didn't stick to it that rigidly, if I went out to dinner I ate what I wanted, it still worked really well though (obviously I wasn't eating out loads)

[Nicky91]

Slimming World?

Paying money for someone to tell you to stop shoveling food in your mouth.

I'll tell you for free.

My birthday’s in January, so no.

Giving up coffee would be hard!
