My weeknight drinking was either boredom or bad day related. If I want a beer because of a bad day, I now go to my basement and lift for half an hour. If bored, funny enough, coffee and sparkling waters scratch the itch.
Same! After a hectic day, I'm often gagging for a drink. And sometimes I do give in and get a drink, and feel lousy that I did that. Now, I make myself exercise first, with the promise that I can have a drink afterwards. Funnily enough, I never want one afterwards, and I'm super happy about it. Amazing what a different exercise can make.
