I need to loose some weight so i have stopped drinking alcohol for a month.
5 days in and I feel great!
I might keep this up for good.....

 

[Gildster]

Yeah, ilaid of the booze when i started to lose weight - that was February last year! I've had a couple of nights out since then, but everytime i come back i feel like crap.

Over the last 18 months i've filled my body with so much goodness (fruit, veg etc) that having a night of debauchery on alcohol and crap food sends me into some kind of toxic shock - my body needs to flush the crap out. (either that or laying off lager turned me into a right lightweight!)

I can live without alcohol, so for me it was easy to drop from my diet.

 

[steepler]

Nearly two weeks in now and I feel so much better for it.
Might help me lose some of this weight too!

Well done on giving up during the World Cup!

 

[stupot]

Wow!
You are an inspiration!!
I tried it this week. Lasted 2 nights ended up drinking 3 glass of red last nite!

 

[Dave]

Stop drinking beer. Scary thougth !!!!!!!
Think i`ll give that idea a miss.

 

[steepler]

You wanna get faster, you gotta get light!
Booze is dead calories!

 

[steepler]

4 weeks yesterday since I last had an alcholic drink!
Now going to follow it through to 24th September after the Berlin Marathon!

 

[steepler]

No more Booze till 24th September!

Gonna lay off until the Berlin Marathon.
Celebrate or cry into a cold one depending on finishing time!:d

 

[Dave]

You must have cracked by now. Please tell me you have.

I thought I done well giving up smoking,but giving up drinking for this long, I raise my hat to you.

 

[Steve]

Still dry Steepler?

 

[Dave]

Can`t be, it`s just not normal.

 

[Steve]

He isn't...have you seen his PBs?!

 

[steepler]

Just to let you all know I am still off the booze.
Last alcoholic drink that passed my lips was on the 18th of June! So now over 3 months of 'straight edge'.
I really have NOT missed it at all.

 

[Steve]

So have you picked up some other "addiction" to take the place of the ale?

 

[tenkplus]

So Steepler, how did your Berlin race go?

 

[tenkplus]

Saw the outcome elsewhere, so no need to repeat it here.

 

[steepler]

Still off the booze though.
Nearly 4 months now.
Lost a lot of weight!

 

[mike84]

[mike84]
