The first week of January: back to work, christmas decorations come down, jeans are all tight, and it’s bloody freezing!
It’s odd. When I look at my posts from this time last year, I am talking alot about breaking the habit, and learning to do things differently. So, here’s the thing; not drinking has become the habit, and I don’t want that to change. What I do want is to be able to have the occasional drink, and really enjoy it.
Last Friday, New Years Day, I woke up without a hangover, and had a lovely day. Then we opened a bottle of really nice red. We both had a glass, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It took me 3 hours to drink it, and I had no urge to drink any more. We had another small glass from the same bottle on Thursday, and now the rest has gone down the sink.
Last night I had a couple of fake beers, as usual on a Friday! So far, the mindful relationship I wanted with alcohol appears to be working!
As for this year’s challenge, (oneyear400kg) there will be an update later! Have a lovely weekend everyone. X
One year: No booze, no takeaways
