I successfully completed Dry January! It has been a great month abstaining from alcohol! I enjoyed trying out the different mocktails, soft drinks (opting for the low calorie options) and maintaining my love for tea!
I feel better for participating; I have more energy in general; coped better with the demands thrown at me especially with the busy time at work and felt generally more positive with my lot in life.
I would be very happy to continue with my life without alcohol...apart from an occasional glass of wine or bubbly! I do yearn to a cocktail but I certainly more attracted to mocktails these days! My likely place now to socialise would be in a gelato cafe than a pub! As well as being 'dry' I want to pursue more physical activity. I've signed up for the local 'Cycle for Health' programme and planning to do a charity swim-marathon in spring!
Dryingly upwards and onwards!
