Not drinking is fine, more annoying than anything else. I've actually come to the same conclusion about not drinking as I did about not eating meat, last year during my vegetarian phase. It turns out that at home, I don't eat a lot of meat anyway, and it's no problem not to drink at home - but going out, restaurants don't usually have super yummy vegetarian options, and it is completely annoying when everyone else is out and drinking yummy beers or bourbons that I would very much like to try, and I can't. It's two more weeks (from yesterday), so I'll stick it out, but I probably won't be going cold turkey again anytime soon.
Lent.
I gave up pizza for lent, mostly as a healthy decision in the first place. I thought it would be easier than it was. It was fine for a few days, and then last night I ate a bunch of pizza. It was 2 for 1's at Mafioza's, and the torture of not being allowed to drink either just made me sad. I'm still not drinking, but I realized that giving up both my favorite things at the same time was a hard decision. I'm still cutting back, but the binge after a week was apparently unavoidable.
Conclusion? I don't have a whole lot of self control when it comes to food. I like it a lot.
I guess it's better than most other addictions one could have.

Happy Leap Day, by the way. Go take a leap and do something that scares you! I did.

P.S. Could someone please explain pinterest to me? I feel 80 years old, I don't get it.
