Fair enough. But is the bit where people go - "I am really struggling now" - Like its self inflicted no ones making them do it.

Yeah but sometimes you want to do stuff that you will struggle with or not enjoy for the greater good of your body. Like going for a run for example.
at the weekend……ish!
I switched my phone off, I was very close to going out but didn’t buckle.

3 weeks in and 8 and a bit lbs of the kite in all honesty not missed it get up and go for a run on a Sunday instead of lingering in my pit like I said before each to their own I need to get fitter and one of the things for me is not drinking at the moment

All comes to an end at around 9am Saturday for meNearly there , tomorrow is the first pay day this year so may crack the weekend
sounds daft but I’m picking and choosing when to be a pisshead this year.I’d of been out most weekends and this Saturday last year. Baby steps!!
28 days later and dry January will soon be over as out for birthday later.
Longest I've gone without drinking for two decades. Actually wasn't as hard as I thought it would be, even opening bottles of wine and making cocktails for the Mrs didn't bother me after week one.
Realised that there are some non alcohol beers that you can stomach. Lost weight, slept better. Will lead to long term reduced drinking. However very dull and I'm looking forward to indulging later.
To all those going to the 31st. Nearly there!

Definitely not as many people done dry January this year, our pub has been steady away for most of the month. First 10 days were shite but after that it seems everyone has fell off the wagon and we’ve been busier than most of December and miles better than previous Januarys. Hopefully other places have experienced a similar pattern.

I think a lot of people went without the pub for long enough over the last few years and want to make up for lost time.
I did have visions of us turning over Bolton and turning out with my mates that went down, serves me right for expecting something from Sunderland in fairness.
I’m on a stag on the 18th Feb, my Mrs is on about having a few drinks the weekend before as well so the 13th will be the end for me I think.
