The first week ...

ELAPSED 8 / 358 REMAINING

That's one week now that I've gone without any alcohol, and to be honest it hasn't been as bad as I first thought it would. Okay, I've had the odd pang of "I could just do with a beer right now!" but I have managed to overcome ...

So again last night I tried some Cobra 0.0% "lager" and ended up having a throbbing headache this morning. So I've reverted back to the peppermint and green teas.

I have followed another teetotaller-for-a-year's excellent blog, where she has talked about "mocktails", which I gather are alcohol-free cocktails. Now, I'm not one for cocktails, never have been, but I'm willing to give them a try as a replacement for my beloved beer!

Let's see what week 2 brings!

  1. Congratulations on completing your first week of teetotaldom! Mocktails are a great way of fooling yourself into believing that you are consuming something alcoholic, I say it's all in the glass! Sarah x

    I shall have to give some of those mocktails a go ...
