After about 3 years of drinking 8-10 beers per night, I’ve decided to give it a go…
Wish me luck, one night down and another one tonight!
Congrats and good luck!
I’ve decided to make 2012 a year without alcohol. It helps that I’m currently pregnant, but once the baby comes in July, I’m still going to stay off the stuff. 
Rewriting history? 
Thanks smaje1! Did you mean 2013 as a year without alcohol?
I wish you all the luck in the world, as I do for anyone who is trying to improve themselves and their lives.
Godspeed!
It’s 2013 already? That was a hell of a bender!
Hahahahah! Obviously, I’ve already broken my resolution and have been boozing it up since early morning.
Yes, I meant 2013.
I largely gave up drinking about a year ago. I still have a couple of beers every once in a while, say once a month. One thing that genuinely surprised me once I had given up was how expensive it was to have a drink at a club or pub. It hadn’t sudden;y got more expensive, I guess I just stopped blocking out the cost. When I started to think about it I certainly wasn’t getting several dollars worth of enjoyment out of every beer I drank. After a few, some only provided a few cents worth of pleasure. Interesting or should I say sobering?
Mazel tov!
good luck!
Thanks for the wishes everyone - 2 nights down now and it was easier last night than the night before!
Yeah, I’m looking at what I’m spending and I’m going to save at least $140 per month. The money as well as the weight aspects have me motivated!
I’m giving up alcohol to lose weight as well - or at least help with the process - so good luck to you!
you can do it. I drank more than that and I quit. I feel soooo much better. Thinner too!
Just don’t start up again by picking up the gin … serious mistake here!
