drink less

Yeah, I am drinking less because my social group/ dynamic has changed a bit and I must say it feels kinda good. I feel a little more balanced. Also has to do with winter coming, slowing down the social engagements, not so much its-a-sunny-day-let’s-drink-beer.

Christmas season, that will be a challenge though!

A friend moved away, which has changed my social life dynamics a bit. I am drinking far less now.

I just enjoy drinking a lot. But I guess I probably “use” it a bit too much. Like, to fog away my problems, to be more social, as a painkiller. Those kind of things.

I just need to keep an eye on me, and keep healthier.

I am going to do a bit of a “detox” for the next week or two. No booze, also no junk food, white flour, etc.

Wish me luck!

Ha. this has been a joke. drank every day for the past week, til last night. I need to get a handle on this, can’t be good for ye olde liver, ye olde braine, etc.

Drank 6 beers last night

2 cans with supper and in the sunny yard with my BF.
2 cans at a friend’s place, getting ready to “go out”
2 pints at this fundraiser event we went to.

Hungover a little. Eep. And it is so sunny and warm again…!

we are having a bit of a heat wave, which is rare and it has been such a crappy summer up until now, and has meant I’ve had exactly 3 beers with friends each eve on fri, sat, sun, and mon. Actually on Saturday I had 4 or 5.

Jeepers. I guess that is too much. But you know, beer in the sun is so NICE.

Didn’t drink anything last night.

Was invited to dinner – drank probably a little over half a bottle of wine with the homemade mac and cheese. Yum. Also about 1.5 beer beforehand and a gin and tonic at the end of the night.

I should have turned down the g and t, probably.

Last night drank 3 beers – one while making BBQ food, one while eating it, and one at a backyard concert. Not too crazy. Not for everyday either, but you know.

Two days no drinking, but then tonight it is actually sunny and summery so we are having a BBQ, so I bought a few beers. No biggie. Just recording my consumption so I can get a handle on how much do I drink and when/how, etc.

I proabably drink a little too much. It is summer – and some of our friends love to drink. We have so much fun with them but it just feels a bit rough on the system.

I want to be healthier and you know, I would be happy to lose about 8 pounds or something, I bet that booze is the culprit, partly, there.

I am going to calculate my weekly consumption here to give me a sense.

So far I had 4 beers yesterday (neighbourhod party and then supper with friends).
