Right after the drinking too much thread, I'd looked at my expanding waistline and decided I'd better go on a diet. On balance I enjoy my food even more than my beer, so it's the beer that's going to have to be taken out of the equation if I'm to lose my gut.

So I'm hopping on the wagon for 3m until 20th Sept. Plenty of room on board if anyone else would care to join me?

I anticipiate a rather difficult first couple of weeks at this!

I've done this already and the weight literally just fell off in a few weeks. Unfortunately I didn't measure progress which, with hindsight, would have been interesting reading to share with others.

Perhaps you could provide a few progress reports along the way?

Good luck!
yes

I'm going to. I'm going to buy some scales at lunchtime. I'm actually quite panicked at the thought of not having a nice pint of cold beer later on. hehe

OK so last night wasn't an unqualified success, I did contain things to 2 500ml cans of lager and a small bottle of lager though.

I'll try again tonight.

Have some alcohol free beers to hand for when you're tempted. Bavaria do two types, a hoppy lager beer and a weissbeer - both very good as alcohol free drinks.
I think I'd better go and get some.

The problem is I tend to drink beer after doing manual work. First night I'd mown the lawn so got thirsty. Last night I put the topper on the tractor and did some field mowing, then fixed a broken pump on our well, then cooked tonights supper after which before really thinking about it I'd cracked open a can of beer I found in the fridge.

Oh well I'll try again tonight. I'm not very good at the Wagon it seems.
