After Hours' Dry January?

Hector Bellend · 12-01-2017 05:22PM

i'm off the drink for 9 days.

Thats a record

whoopsadoodles · 12-01-2017 05:28PM

I'm in London and the hotel have free beer in the room

Dr Crayfish · 12-01-2017 05:28PM

Gave up giving up. But I've been dry nearly every day.

Winterlong · 12-01-2017 05:31PM

If we can get thru this weekend we will be home and dry.

If.

Jrop · 12-01-2017 05:33PM

Winterlong Yes we can

Have not drank this much in months. No doubt I'll get to February and will no longer have any interest in it. The same reason I am usually dying for a drink on good Friday, the one day I can't have one.

I'm doing it- so far have only had the temptation twice. Have a 30th on the 21st Jan, so will prob have 2-3 drinks that night and draw the line.
Wouldn't be a heavy drinker by any means, but could do with cutting out the calories.

Went out last night, one of the best nights in recent memory, who would have thought sober nights could actually be decent

Hector Bellend · 15-01-2017 02:28PM

I cracked and went for pints on friday

Saipanne · 15-01-2017 02:30PM

If anything, my alcohol consumption is accelerating in 2017.

Dr Crayfish · 15-01-2017 03:01PM

Right well I'm not having a dry Jan. But I am eating better and exercising more. Also dry 5 or 6 nights a week. So if I can keep this up in the long term I'll have a better 2017. Keep it up folks.

Winterlong · 15-01-2017 03:54PM

Still clean for 2017. But my tipsy wife beat me at scrabble last night.
Feeling well dumb now.

Much easier to eat well and exercise when there's no hangover! Well done on cutting down

I cracked on Saturday and had wine

back on the dry again.

I nearly cracked. Was in the pub yesterday and had a Paulander no alcohol beer. It was like having a nice dinner that someone had forgotten to season.
Nice, but not hitting the spot.

Jrop · 16-01-2017 10:14AM

Winterlong it wasn't that nice

I hated the fuzzy head I had yesterday too

Aglomerado · 16-01-2017 10:16AM

Weekend no. 2 booze free down. I notice I've got cravings for sh!te food like Doritos now. Which are probably worse for me than beer.

Unintelligent will score you more points in the future

Two thirds of the way there. Payday on Monday too, that'll be one to avoid temptation.

I'm going to a gig tomorrow night and seriously tempted to have a few

eviltwin · 19-01-2017 02:25PM

Well I still haven't touched a drop. I was out at the weekend and thought I'd be tempted but I wasn't and I'm not missing it. I had planned to just stick it out for January but I think I will keep going and see where I end up .

I'm hosting a family do on the 4th Feb, and it's the first day of the 6 Nations (favourite day of the year) so I'm ****ed if I'm not having a few that day. Hopefully, it'll be about 5 weeks since I've had any at that stage, which will be a new record for me in the last decade.

Torturing yourself mate.

Jrop · 19-01-2017 03:18PM

ah Sixmas.

Just 12 days left, start the countdown or continue ???

andekwarhola · 19-01-2017 04:46PM

I've decided to adopt the Roy Keane /Bryan Robson alcohol programme for January.

Just keep drinking but exercise harder to kid myself I'm burning it off.
