Alcohol, hints, tips, advice etc.

I’ve had to put some effort back in again this week and not drink for the last few days, kicked in healthy eating and hitting gym every day as well (sometimes twice a day too) as just through circumstance found I’d drank far too much last week and through the bank holiday weekend, probably circa 50 pints consumed last week.

It’s just too easy to drink too much.

Fifty pints @ £4 a pint = £200 for a week.

£800 a month.

That's over £10,000 a year.
 
When rocked up in hospital, I was often grilled by the pros about all my habits. I was told 14 units of alcohol was now the recommended weekly limit. That’s 7 pints of average strength beer.
 
Yep, well aware of the costs mate. Fortunately, or unfortunately, depending on which way you look at it, not a big issue for me.
I’ve not had a drink since Monday and that’s only because I was at Swansea v West Brom and we watched the later matches. I’m not working at the moment and have managed to get so much done. I’ve money in the bank and time on my hands.

There’s so much more to life than getting pissed up, Rammy.
 
Day 31, happy to be here. Passing tests all the time. I'm not in a position where alcohol needs to be banned in the house, the mrs likes a glass of wine and visitors might enjoy a beer. I can ignore it and let people do as they like. Day by day, bit by bit. I just have to remind myself how it ends and I saw a pic of a bottle of Hennessy on another thread on here earlier......turned my gut as that was the last drink I had.

It's a while off but I predict a stern test to be the next time I am out with my friends back home. They won't peer pressure me, they've seen what I'm like. But these are lads I've been friends with for 20+ years since high school, and seeing them brings out my inner rogue...

Good man. Keep going and keep posting. Glad to hear it.
 
Paulaner Weissbier 0.0% is my favourite non-alcoholic beer. I agree entirely with your sentiments.
I usually have Erdinger blue which is a bit gassy, I haven't seen the Paulaner weissbier. I would like to try it to compare.
Where can I find it?
