No alcohol pledge

[sunshine]

I am not touching a drop of alcohol for 2 weeks, for a start! See post in weight loss talk.

Good luck, sounds like a great idea! Alcohol is such a pain - I'm the same, can't stop at one. Then, you just start eating while under the influence

Maybe a trip to the gym instead of the bottle shop

You know what's a good idea, well it helped me anyway. When you're wanting a glass of wine, get out your wine glass, and fill it with apple juice (to look like white wine), or cranberry (red), and drink that instead. You can trick your eyes into thinking that you're having a drink... but without the effects on your body

I'm totally on board for this one. I have a ball coming up in September where I plan on drinking lots of lovely wine, but until then, if I want to be able to fit into my lovely dress, I think I'm going to abstain!
