Dry July 09

[white.grant]

So, is anyone up for dry july this year?

I've started training for a long bike ride later in the year so will be swearing off for most of the month (with the likely exception of the 24th - NSW case swap day). Am aiming to lose 5 kg.

cheers

Was thinking of doing something like a dry month when the Feb thread was in full swing.

I am now doing two sets of dry days a week ie: 4 days no drinkiepoos a week, spread apart and 2 days in a row.

Better all round for mind, body and beer stocks.

Go hard - just my way of doing it Where you riding from and to?

Dont think I could honestly do a dry july Grant but I could do a weight loss July. Let say we put down a start weight and a projected weight and see how we go. I need to loose a few KG but could not give up. But I could reduce consumption and exercise a bit if there was a goal/competition. Who else is up for a healthy July!!

Dry July ,
I would love to comply,
but I may have one on the Sly,
even in a rush on the Fly,
being a new age Guy,
I can understand why,
My beer is in low supply,
It will cut into the sponsers apple pie ,
let me ask my liver with a sigh,
will one schooey a nigh,
be OKai

I am going from the 5th (to accomodate the 4th at the Taphouse) to the 5th of Aug. I need to do a little regen project on my body and try to get it in a bit better shape for the other half.

I've been dry for 1/2 an hour, whilst eating my dinner.....in a few minutes, I'll visit the throne room, so will be dry for 1/2 hour more.

That's more than enough for me.

No way , sorry.
But I have made a decision to exercise more.
Yesterday got up a sweat cutting down a dead tree and digging holes for more trees , and its the first time I have felt tired due to work, for a long time. It felt good

Usually I'd be in like Flynn. But this next little period brings with it some challenges that only alcohol will help me thru.
The best I can offer is a severely reduced intake. Weight loss may or may not be involved as well.
So I'll join you in spirit, if not in true adoption of the concept.

I will exercise more and drink less before the trip with weight loss as the goal.

But dry, with a week in Queenstown coming up... no chance.

 

[Barramundi]

im also planning on having a dry july , and probably half of august, trying to lose a kilo or two and also give the insides a bit of a detox ...

 

[bradsbrew]

I will look towards losing at least 5 KG during July. For no other reason than I need to. Will cut slightly on consumption but will lift activity heaps. Will take weight on 1 July and 31 july.
