I am holding myself accounting throughout July. You can read how and why here.
If you are reading this, either July has not yet finished or I failed miserably.
A success. Mostly.
I haven't had any sugar or sweetener in a month. I'm about 9lbs/4kg down which was never the goal but a welcome side-effect. I do not feel beholden to sweetness post-meal or for an afternoon pick me up; something that has cursed me for many years.
I abstained from drinking alcohol for 29 days of the 31 but had a single drink at two separate parties. Such is life.
Doom-scrolling is much improved, 98% of the way there. But it would be false to say I did not mindlessly doomscroll in July.
More. Double down. Five months left in 2024 to make it the best year ever.
