A week off booze

[chris71]

Going to have real go at staying off it till tonight. Wish me luck.

[RobbieOR]

Ive said this before and I'll say it again. I enjoy it way too much to give it up.

[Pony Princess]

Off it now 'til friday. Been drinking 9 nights on the bounce. Got some bananas and sugary treats here for the shakes.

[JMARKH]

I don't drink in the week or anything and can sometimes go weeks without it and like to go running, go to a boxing club to stay fit but when I do drink I go to town on it, sometimes till about 8 or 9 in the morning, I'm your classic binge drinker, but its a new year and a new start.

[chris71]

Didn't last, had a bottle of Miller at a mates house. Ah well,gave it a good go.

[Joe Le Taxi]

I don't know mate really. Just open my mouth and pour it in. It's not as if I drink that much very often though, at least not recently. Most I've had recently was about 18 pints when I did the Pennine ale trail but that was spread over around ten hours. It certainly takes me longer to recover these days; took me two days to recover from the ale trail. I reckon I'm happy to stay off the drink during the week. I think nothing of having a full bottle of wine on a week night but equally having no booze at all has not bothered me at all this week.

 

Mine is 15 on the Otley Run. Absolutely killed me, especially when we hit the clubs about half 11.

After this week I'll be off booze Sunday to Thursday and not going over the top on a weekend. Some new work commitments will need me sober and I'm committing to losing 2 stone before the Spring. Need to get ouut running too, dreading that.

Yeah that's what I do usually. No drinks on a work night. I used to get so bored on sober nights but now I just go for a jog, do some weights and watch TV box-sets. It has worked well with weight loss.

 

Sometimes though, if work has been a cunt, I'll cheat and have a few beers on the way home on a Thursday.

[manwiththestick]

I have two cans of Grolsch in the fridge, I will have those tonight and that's it for as long as I can. Back on the bike looking to shift a stone and half. Cutting out crisps, pastries and as much other junk as possible.

[TheBitch]

I'm off the booze for... oh who am I kidding, I'm going the pub in 10 to watch the darts.

[lifetime fan]

Gave up beer in the summer.

 

I have a load of ice pops in the freezer at home though and will munch through these of an evening instead of having a beer.

[Carvalho Diablo]

I have about 40 bottles of wine in the back living room, a (nother) bottle of Polish Bison Grass vodka in the freezer, about a litre of Scrumpy Jack and about the same amount of Old Rosie, a couple of small bottles of Jack, a small bottle of Jim Beam (which I detest), a load of Stella, San Miguel, Pironi and various other cans of assorted lager's and ciders knocking about in the kitchen fridge and the loft fridge.

 

Over the festive period I have knocked back enough booze to sink a fucking battleship.

 

Since I stopped drinking (doctors orders) and then subsequently started again (in the spring) I just do not get hangovers anymore...but my 42 year old liver is feeling fucked beyond belief.

 

Gonna take a few days off, but back out on Friday night for my best mates birthday, he's the nutter that used to drink Blue Stratos btw, so things might get a bit blurry.

I can't do the couple of beers and home thing, it's either all or nothing with me, I'm off it now though untill February after taking my inspiration from the 'not boozing' thread

I know how you feel mate, my liver is glad I'm back to work tomorrow.
