I'm not an alcoholic, but my father, aunt, grandfather and grandmother (on the other side) all were. I have spent long periods of my adult life too fit and healthy to consider drinking, but in the last few years started to develop the habit of a few drinks a week, which grew....
So a few weeks ago after polishing off 10 drinks in one afternoon on my own, I decided that this habit had grown far enough - and I stopped. I know that alcoholism can be genetic, and I figure mine suck in that regard, so better to be safe than sorry.
I'm now up to day 16, my boyfriend is trying too - but slipped up after 7 days. It isn't making any difference to my weight yet, but it's about more than that - isn't it!
