Day One - The half can strongbow test

The woman posting this photo has earned her Strongbow Time

Ok. This week I have ingested 3734 calories of alcohol which has cost me £32 (one may think that is rather cheap, I did get some of these drinks bought for me).

New start! I will lose the stone I've been wanting to lose for a long long time while thus proving to myself that I am not as addicted to alcohol as I fear. Although this addiction may be betrayed by the very fact I need to start a blog on it just to take my mind off the idea of nipping down to the bar, having a nice cold one, watching the golden stream of lager fall into my glass with a frothy finish....in short, I need a place to wine, I mean whine.

First day is gone. A friend of mine (Jess) came round and left half a can of strongbow on my desk. I picked it up and poured it down the sink after a couple of seconds of thinking about drinking it and starting this tomorrow.

That wasn't that difficult. I'm assuming it will get harder.

PS Jess is now worried she is going to look like an enabler, she may well be. No, I will not resent my friends for drinking around me, all I ask is that they don't encourage me to drink/offer to buy me a drink/ask me out for a drink etc.
