giving up the drink

Well done, another day behind you.

Soon you will stop counting the days and it will be second nature for you not to have a drink.

We had a glass or two of wine on Sunday evening after a long and very busy days work, and do you know, for the first time since I stopped, I would have preferred a glass of slimline tonic.

Pat yourself on the back Alfiesmum. You are getting there.

Thanks. Ive decided that when i go out or family and friends are drinking im going to have a Cheeky pineapple juice instead. Still synable obviously but better ones. Or a diet lemonade with lime xx
 
How are you doing ??
 
I'll join you on this one Hun. Can never have just a glass... Always finish the bottle and such a waste of syns! Could be another reason I'm a slow loser. I include it in my syns but have always had better losses if I cut it out altogether. 4 weeks till my holiday so abstaining till then :0)
 
I have already joined :)
Stopped all alcohol when I joined SW. Makes such a difference, feel brighter and better and shed weight on the way.
Not that I was drinking all the time or every day, but when I was I would always have more than the one can/glass.
So, well done all of us. :clap:

Woo hoo - well done alfsmummy11 and everyone else who has joined in!.....and thank you for starting this thread! :D

Last night was a true test for me - Thursday night - what I used to see as the beginnng of the weekend :rolleyes:- always meant a ROUGH Friday at work with minimal work being carried out. I passed the test and today I am bright as a button. :D Not a drop passed my lips and I wasn't even that bothered! Now……the weekend to contend with

Have a good (sober) one everyone xx

:worthy: Aahhh, forgive me diet, for I have sinned.
No, not really, but had a JD and Pepsi Maxx last night, had a terrible day and I still had syns left :eek:
Didn't enjoy it though - gave me heartburn.

Looks like you are doing really well alfsmummy11. Well done!

Alcohol is an odd one for me - I now very very rarely drink at home and don't miss it at all. On some occassions when I have planned to have a glass of wine at the weekend I have ended up realising I didn't really feel like it and having a cup of tea or a glass of coke zero instead!
Going out is a whole other matter. I was very worried going out would be very very boring and I would feel like a party-pooper (this is despite the fact that my husband has never drunk alcohol at all and always seems to have a good time) without drinking but I actually managed to go out last night and drink nothing at all and had a really good time. I was very surprised! Not sure if I will manage a second night out tonight without drinking at all but it now seems more of a possibility than i have ever thought it would be before. :)

You will be amazed at how good you do feel without it. I now drink the slimline tonic without the gin....delish. I still enjoy myself and in fact even today I was asked what I was on because they wanted some too. My reply " Life, I am just on the joy of life ". I think they thought I was a bit of a nut.....do I care .....no not at all.
I am slimmer, happier, and better off financially.

You keep up the good work.........

The better off financially definitely strikes a cord - I only spent £2:20 last night and didn't get in until 3am!
