Still slightly jetlagged, ie waking up at 5am, having returned from Toronto to Mumbai a week ago. But despite the lack of sleep, I'm relatively energetic in the mornings, thanks, no doubt, to the absence of alcohol in my veins.
I had another brief beer pang at the airport yesterday returning from Delhi. Airports, and particularly lounges, are definitely a trigger, especially at the end of a long day of work and travel. But it wasn't particularly hard to resist.
I'm still not finding it hard to stay off the booze, at all. I guess because I'm just so used to Dry January now ... maybe my body has just adjusted to the annual drought. I think it will be more challenging down the line, when I fall back into that "oh one wouldn't hurt" mindset. Which then turns into 3, 4, 5 and more.
Actually I'm more interested in the lack of food rather than the lack of booze at the moment. Doing 4:3 intermittent fasting, which basically means Monday, Wednesday, Friday no food all day ... and normal eating the rest of the week. I started on Monday ... was tough but not impossibly so. And this is Day 2 of the fasting, which began with my last meal on the plane last night. There are many benefits of fasting, allegedly, but of course I am shallow and doing it for the weightloss. I have 8-10 kilos to lose, to fit into my lovely new clothes!!
Weight - not sure
Eyebags - not great thanks to all the dehydration from travelling. Oh and Delhi's vile pollution.
Quit Lit - interested to check out Dry Hard which just popped up in an Amazon promotion mail (those guys are too good).
