I don't think you can blame it all on people not taking personal responsibility ... a virus is unpredictable ... especially when you can get it and have no visible health affects ... I still believe that a very high percentage of people are good ... no one ( in my mind ) wants to pass on a deadly virus to another Maybe I am being stupid thinking that ... but, I still have faith in my fellow man ... I mean .. really do people go to the hospital for every cough , sneeze or a runny nose .. NO .. they just think everything will go away ... no big deal ... I certainly don't run to a Doctor for every cough , sneeze or runny nose ... the last thing in the world I want to do to another is pass some bullshit onto a another person Edited February 24, 2021 by code_slayer_bkk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people just couldn't give a f**k about anyone else but themselves, knowing the virus was unpredictable. Indeed even boasting about doing what they wanted and not giving a f**k about anyone else.

boydeste Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Was quite tired all day yeaterday after my chip implant and didn't move out of the chair. I slept for 9 hours straight and didn't really want to wake up then, but I needed a pee. I love today that my arm doesn't ache anymore and the sun is shining. Hopefully feel up for a walk to get some fresh air later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boydeste Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Waking up feeling fresh without a hangover. Completed my planned 2 weeks off the booze. I don't drink midweek so it will be nearly 3 before I treat myself to a nice bottle of red next weekend. Hopefully I can resume drinking alot less quantities than before. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do really enjoy a few beers or some wine, but I had got to a point where I was getting hammered at the weekend and then feeling shite in the morning. My blood pressure and weight was suffering because of it. The latter was the main reason for doing it. I have a review with the doctor today, so we will see where I am with it all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always been a binge drinker but can go for weeks without ... however when I do drink , the hangovers last a few days now ... last lockdown I was drinking almost every day , so this one decided to give it a miss , losing a bit of weight as well 👍 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maipenrai Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I seldom have more than one drink a day at home but have been hitting the pub too much lately - it's an awkward time of year when we know spring is coming but last week was the snowfall week from hell with five separate events - this winter has the most snow on the ground since 1972 and we're all getting sick of it; it'll be quite the mess when it all starts to melt.

Bet you feel so much better for it though. What are your targets regarding your drinking?. The main driver for reducing my intake is for my general health. After a few years of stress due to family bereavement, I had put on loads of weight and got diagnosed with a heart condition. My blood pressure was high too! My alcohol intake was around 200 units a week. My doctor had never had anyone admit to drinking that much before! Given my honesty, I convinced the doctor to give me a year to loose some weight and recuce my drinking down to recommended levels as the situation wasn't normal for me! A year or so later I have now lost 2 stone and only drink at the weekends, my blood pressure has come down to normal for my age, but the lower value tends to be a bit higher than ideal. With monitoring it every day I found that after 3 days of heavy drinking it would rise quite a bit and take another 3 to 4 days to come back down again. Not to mention feeling so crap in the mornings with a hangover. The amount I was drinking was gradually getting more and more too. So, I was due for a review by the doctor, he wanted BP taken morning and night every day for a week, this I did and the average came out as high normal. He was happy with my progress and agreed not to put me on meds as long as I reduced my drinking and hopefully loose some more weight after we come out of lockdown. This coincided with an appointment to get my Jab. Quite a few friends have had a reaction to the jab so I decided that to give my body the best chance I would stop drinking for 2 weeks and also I would get an idea how my BP would be effected. My 2 weeks finished on Monday, so naturally with no booze midweek I am close to 3 weeks now! The last few days my BP has started to come down some more and now I am getting low normal values for my age. This surprised me, as well as pleased me, also any mild liver damage due to booze is proven to totally recover within 4 weeks so the decision is made to go a whole month now. Long term aim is to loose some more weight and drink moderately at the weekend and hopefully keep that BP in the normal range to stay off the meds. If I can manage the drink, eat heathy and exercise the weight should take care of itself. I just realised I have waffled on a bit, sorry for that. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
