Dry January is done! I thought I'd wait until tonight to have a drink but I just couldn't resist last night. I'd been to the gym, came home and jumped in the bath... With an Aperol spritz. I had it in Austria last year and it was delicious. I have to say I was a bit disappointed last night. Not as nice as I remember! C'est la vie.
Funnily enough my magazine last month had an article about three readers being dry for a month (I'm not talking incontinence). But the magazine gave them blood tests and scans before and after. Their liver fat decreased for all three. Something about their blood test improved and two of them lost weight. They all had some other type of improvement too. Either they had more energy, or their skin was glowing or their hair was shinier. I gave up alcohol for a month and I saw no difference at all!! Obviously had I been offered the tests and scans then I dare say I'd show the same sort of improvements as the women in the magazine, but we'll never know. Now, I have lost weight - but then I've been trying very hard with my diet and exercise. Hum...I don't think I'll go back to drinking as much as before (as it wasn't very difficult). But if my weight loss slows down or stops now I'm back on the booze, I will give it up again!
I was so chuffed this week when my boss said she could see I'd lost weight!!! It won't be long (fingers crossed) before I'm posting another knicker shot for you all to see some weight loss! Whoop whoop. I'm so excited!
Junk food you've craved for an hour? Or the body you've craved for a lifetime?
PS sugar free February!?
