30 day alcohol free challenge!

Zena1973 · 16/05/2016 21:24

Hi everyone! Newbie on here. I'm 42 single mum of 3. I have decided it's time I strated looking after myself for a change. I have started slimming world although doing it at home myself as changing work shift patterns mean I can't commit to weekly meetings. And online membership is out of my price range. Anyways! The diet I think I will just about be ok with as it's a healthier lifestyle I'm trying to achieve. Its the missing glass of wine or 3 at the weekend I'm going to struggle with but I have set myself a 30 day wine free (the only alcohol I like) challenge! It's day one and I'm already wobbling about Friday night without my glass of wine arghhhh. I know I stand a much greater chance of losing weight if the wine goes temporarily at least! Anyone care to join me in this challenge? Or buddy up if your starting slimming world? I'm going to need support and would like to share the journey with like minded people. Xx

Hi Zena - we have a Slimming World topic. Would you like us to move your thread over there?

Wish you all the luck with this. By wine o'clock (any time after 8pm) I am usually in need of a glass each evening. Anything in moderation they say.

Wishing you well Zena I don't drink at all except for special celebrations. In a way I wish I did drink then I could give it up to be more healthy.
I have already given up chocolate / crisps so I have no more life enhancing things that I can give up Sad

If you go to the group, there's an option on the membership form for shift workers...so you don't have to pay for weeks you miss because of work.

Just figured it might be useful to know.
