I’ve been on this forum for a few years on and off, trying to lose weight, again on and off. So, another tactic.
This has been 4 weeks today, since I had a drink. Thank you TabbyCat for your support. It’s been really helpful. Although I had a glass of wine or 2 most days, it must have had an overall affect on losing weight.
When I get to 40 days, I’m going to concentrate on the sweets and food again. But at this moment I don’t want to overdo myself 🤣. One step at a time.
Best wishes everyone.
Woohoo, Cockneyblue! WTG you! 
Hi moreless I’m still around on this forum. 🤣🤣
A true diehard!
Whoopie! Well done Cockneyblue! You've had family celebrations, Easter and even a party for the Grand National that's a lot of potential drinking in one month, you'll smash the 40 days no problem!

Am I in the right bit TC or should I be in Drinkless club?
I’m really pleased with myself, though I can’t say I’ve not been tempted. Bring on 40 days.
You're welcome to post wherever you like, I just took the opportunity for a bit of publicity, 😂 lol.
You're quite right to feel pleased with yourself, lots to be proud of.
Thanks again. 12 days more. Then it’s losing weight time 👍
Go Cockneyblue what a star!!
Well done you.💪 I used to have one glass of wine every night and despite only eating 1400 calories, I couldn't lose weight. My Google searches told me that as the body views alcohol as a toxin, it must 'deal' with the alcohol first. This apparently delays its ability to process food into useful energy, but store more of it as fat. Alarmed, I switched to Nozeco and I've lost 14 lbs in 6 weeks 😀
Wow, well done you. I am/was similar to you. A drink every evening with my meal, usually red wine. Then, sometimes, g&t. Thank you for the information. That’s another thing to think about. Thank you.
Go beyond the 40 days. I gave up for a month in January 2020 and am still dry. Think of the other benefits apart from weight loss; you’ll sleep better, have more energy, your liver will thank you as will your doctor and your wallet.
Thank you. I am sleeping better but my scales have no battery, at the moment, so I’m not sure what’s happening. If I’ve gained, I might be tempted to have a drink, so I’m leaving it until the 40 days TheTabbyCat said about. It gives me something to aim for. My bp is down so fingers crossed.
Congratulations... Your plan is great.. Good luck
