I did it. 40 days

yay. I’m not alcohol dependent. I won’t know until Thursday if there’s any weight loss. I suspect not, as I love sweets. But after next weekend and my daughters 40th little do, I’m going to try another challenge of ‘no sweets’. Oh dear that will be hard. But I thought the alcohol was impossible and I did it. Thanks to the lovely people on here. Thank you all again. 👍👍

Hello Cockneyblue, cracking job, excellent, you must be chuffed to bits. One step at a time does work. I am so proud of you. Onwards to Thursday but the scales say what they say then we just deal with it, all together, we are not on our own. Take care and I send you a congratulatory hug. Xx

Hello Cockneyblue, no not yet unfortunately, but when I do get it done the consultant should be pleased with my weight loss, he said I could do with losing a bit so three stone should be OK. Take care xxxx

thank you Wine but only 40 days as I had a wine or 2 last night, with friends but that’s ok as I won’t be drinking again until Saturday on my daughters 40th. I, hopefully, have now broken the every evening habit.

Thank you again. 👍

Well done Cockneyblue, you're doing really well.

Good luck with your next challenge, no sweets. Do you mean sweets as in mints or as in desserts? I stopped eating chocolate last June and apart from a couple of kitkats I still don't eat it. I was getting through ½ Kg every month, just 1 square at a time :o

I mean sweet sweets. Love hearts, I love. Refreshers. All the kiddies type sweets. Not so much chocolate. I also love liquorice Allsorts. They will be a mega thing to give up.

So, any ideas for an alternative will be good.

Once again, thank you for your support. 👍
