You will be surrounded by wine drinkers then! But seriously, resisting that nice cold golden bitter-sweet beverage with that tender white foamy crown is not easy esp. in the summer time. Must ... resist! alc-free or Shandy ftw but then again it's not the real deal.

I prefer the mixed drinks and the occasional wine cooler. As for health regimens I'd love to go on a cleanse. But I've not been good and ready for one. And I need to be those things first before any commitments. Actually, I've been really noncommittal to anything (except for work) since I've been back on island.

You sound like my Hubby. He only drinks it now on our only day of the week, "cheat day" We can eat whatever we want that day. He drinks beer but instead drinks the "light" beer like April mentioned. It's ok to have a beer or two here and there but not more than that. And have the light beer to cut your craving. Good Luck! You're doing good though. ps. You changed layouts again! I like the ones before. This one's too plain for me. That's just me though.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('7446','Bonita in Pink'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('7446','Bonita in Pink','Ha!

I occasionally go nuts with shots, but I dont like the dehydration afterwards. The next day always sucks for me with shots. I can drink beer as much as I want, get drunk, and wake up feeling perfectly normal the next day. haha.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('7439','trench'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('7439','trench','Im a beer drinker.

If you go completely cold turkey, you might end up binging. If you do want to go cold turkey though, make sure you get a lot of support from your wife (I bet I'm preaching to the choir) and drink lots of green tea. Green tea will boost your metabolism and you'll lose the weight and retain muscle much quicker.
