I failed ! After 3 weeks of alcohol abstinence I gave up on project Dry July.
I think I simply got bored in the end. Green tea, black tea, milk with honey, orange juice, you can only drink so much of that stuff really, comes a point where the tastebuds need something more stimulating (that’s the reward system receptors in my brain rationalizing away…).
But it was a good experience, I learned that it is possible to do a week’s worth of housecleaning before 730am. I read a million books, and shed some kilos. Somehow I have a hunch that putting them back on will not be as difficult.
Diet Coke. Not 42; Diet Coke.
Still doing Dry July. On August 1st I will be having a wee drop of Bowmore 12 Year Old Enigma to celebrate a month of abstinence.
You’re obviously made of sterner stuff than me…
After a month on the wagon, this drink tastes really good.
