I consider my drinking still to be moderate and I’m happy that my drinking habit is quite stable. When I’m at home, I tend to drink one or two glasses of wine at a time. In September, I think I was drinking more often though and to address this, I’ve decided to cut out alcohol for October. It’s also partially because when I cut out alcohol in March, I felt really good (but I had also started exercising at that time too) and I’m curious to see whether this will happen again.
It also feels different this time, as it doesn’t feel so
much like a challenge. In January, I
drunk like my old self and March was only a short time after that, so it felt
like something I must do. This time, it
feels quite easy not to drink. Well, it’s
only been four days so far.
I have one exception for drinking in October and that is, if
my friend from Taiwan comes over, I’ll have a beer with him. This exception is in place because the last
time he came over was in March and I think he was a little disappointed that I
didn’t share a beer with him.
