Am dying. Stayed up like an idiot til 3.45am and decided espresso martini was a good shout, following red wine and champagne.

Dry January here we come.

Send bacon.

I'm doing dry January because I've been teetotal for years. I was fed up of hangovers and never knowing what I'd done or said.

Monkeytapper · 01/01/2021 11:58

I’m tea total too, 4 years. So nice to wake up fresh and not have beer fear anymore.

Monkeytapper · 01/01/2021 11:58

Whoops, tee-total

Sstarlight · 01/01/2021 12:03

I am very jealous of your lack of hangovers today.

Me. I thought margaritas were a good idea after g&t, wine and Prosecco! Did it last year and it was great...helped kick start loosing 2 stone too which is a bonus.

Sstarlight · 01/01/2021 12:13

I absolutely need the weight loss. I need to get rid of a stone minimum.

Good god I am so very rough today.

Rough as fuck today. I gave up alcohol for the November lockdown and it was so nice being hangover free but it crept back in.

I need to lose weight and sort out my skin and sleep better and just fix myself.

Dry Jan will be a start.

Didn't have any alcohol yesterday evening, couldn't be bothered.
I am now having champagne with my lunch, though :-)

GinasGirl · 01/01/2021 12:34

I am so ill. Fizz followed by shots with no dinner was not my best idea. Was sick. Have headache. I'm now just flailing around whinging. Dry January for me for sure.

theotherfossilsister · 01/01/2021 12:35

Considering it. We have left over red wine though.

JM10 · 01/01/2021 12:44

I had already planned on doing dry January, which meant I had to finish the prosecco last night. I didn't have to have the gin after though 😬

I've got a headache, but not feeling terrible.

iklboo · 01/01/2021 12:47

We're going to do dry 2021, except for special occasions. We shall see!

Heyahun · 01/01/2021 12:50

I’m super pregnant (32 weeks) haven’t had a drink the whole time - for midnight countdown I thought I’d have a nice glass of champagne and was looking forward to it all week as a treat - couldn’t even drink half of it 😂 husband finished mine and the rest of the bottle - he’s absolutely dying now had to go back to bed

The thoughts of ever having a hangover again fills me with dread tbh - I wonder if il ever go back to my old ways tbh

OrangeGinLemonFanta · 01/01/2021 12:52

Nope. DH is doing a roast duck for dinner and we're cracking open a bottle of champagne. We'll sip not chug, can't face a hangover.

myhobbyisouting · 01/01/2021 12:55

Hmm, can't decide. Did November, might do jan or feb

MrsDThomas · 01/01/2021 12:57

No hangover as i only drank half a bottle of prosecco and I poured the rest down the sink at 10:25 and decided to eat toast and have a cup of tea.

Doing dry January just to get out if the habit if a glass of wine most nights.

Zoinksalot · 01/01/2021 13:18

Shots, double gins that were more like triples and two glasses of champagne...sat on the sofa with my bestfriend (bubbled) with the duvet and Lucozade to help the hangover Grin
