Okay so anyone else considering going cold turkey before their trip? I am not a heavy drinker, but we usually have a couple of beers or wine each night to unwind from a long day. Just considering not drinking for these next two weeks until we fly out. Thoughts?
I've been eating clean and not drinking for about a month... then a couple days ago at a dinner I had some wine. It gave me a bit of a buzz! My suggestion... if you do go cold for the next few weeks, have a few days before you leave where you do drink a little.
Good job. I thought about doing that a long time ago but didnt stick to it at all. Maybe next year. :icon_frown:
if you go cold turkey watch out... i would say either drink a frozen drink or make sure you go slow on the other mixed drinks. I don't drink much and can get trashed quick down there on vodka/cranberry where as if I drink strawberry daquiris all day I have a nice buzz going. Add shots & oh boy we're in trouble lol
In my opinion it wouldnt be a good idea. If you do that then your alcohol tolerance will be down & then you will get messed up quicker then your used to & might overdo it & miss out on some of the fun.(No fun when ure worshipping the porcelain god or passing out somewhere :wuerg011::ernaehrung023 We don't go till June but we're having fun "practicing" till we get there! Lol Jess
Well right now we both have a pretty high tolerance (not that thats something to be proud of). I certainly do not feel like overdoing it and missing out on all the fun.
We've both been cold turkey for 153 days now... that's when he left for Afghanistan... I support my troop. He can't drink so I don't when he is deployed. as soon as his boots hit the ground in Florida it is time to start. Thankfully we have a few days when he gets here before we leave for TTR to practice!!
Wow! How cool. Well you both will not need much to get buzzzzed pretty good i guess. Nothing wrong with that!
