There is so much I can say about this subject and I have written about it before here.  I have a love/hate relationship with alcohol.  There is nothing like a glass of wine when you get home from a stressful day.  Nothing like a martini when out with friends.

But it’s all stopped and I’m glad.

I now have an ‘excuse’ not to drink.  It’s really quite amazing how uncomfortable people are when you’re not drinking and they are.  At the moment I don’t put myself in social situations where I am expected to drink.

I don’t feel bloated when I wake up, nor do I have a hangover from the night before and I know it’s the reason a major contributing factor of why I have lost weight since starting this program.

So watch me drink my ‘fake’ G&T’s (soda, lime and loads of ice) as I make my way through the silly season.
