RE: 30-Day No Alcohol Challenge!
I stopped drinking almost entirely a few years back, for several reasons:
- Alcohol tends to give me migraines, which is SO the opposite feeling of what you want to get in the end...
- When I tried getting pregnant I gave up alcohol, and that took longer than expected - and then pregnancy, and then there's a baby... In short, my alcohol tolerance crashed to zero, I currently get "happy-drunk" from a half glass of wine.
- I realized that alcohol makes me less productive in my work, and as I'm a freelancer who work from home, I have no regular hours and shifts, and I tend to work in bits from morning to midnight. Drinking didn't help there.
- Apparently, when you hit 30, you lose some of your edge, and things you eat and drink affect you much more seriously, and never for the better, so it appears.
However, I won't accept the challenge, for the sole reason that my birthday is coming up, and I've earned that champagne glass (plus, I haven't drank alcohol in over a month now, so did I automatically win?). But I wish best of luck to all of you who do choose to take this challenge!
