I’ve heard people say when you give up drinking you can’t (shouldn’t) have zero alcohol drinks. Something to do with breaking the habit. I didn’t find that. I decided to give up when I gave up smoking. I didn’t know if it would be forever. I wanted to feel healthier. Suzy didn’t like me smoking. Ever. She couldn’t stop worrying about me. I suppose I started worrying about myself instead. I didn’t do it for her. An important distinction. I did it for myself. It wasn’t easy but two years later I drink zero alcohol beer and don’t even think about it.
I started on Becks Blue and sometimes had a Heineken O.O I like both and honestly you can’t tell the difference in the taste. Even my friends have said the same when they’ve picked up a zero alcohol beer out of the cooler at parties by mistake.
Stella Artois have done a great one I buy. Love a pint of Stella. But my new favourite of all is Corona Zero now in a can.
I couldn’t believe it when I saw these little beauties next to the sandwiches in the meal deal for £1.95 a piece.
I’d normally have a coke or red bull with my sandwich and crisps, this time we had Corona zero icy cold in a can, drank them in the park, felt like we’d had a bit of a party and then went back to work, completely sober.
It was a more expensive way to enjoy a cold one, when you can get four bottle for under £5 but it made a weekday lunch time supermarket lunch I have to say a little bit special.
Love these little beauties. For anyone looking to consume less alcohol they are a great choice, you feel like you are having a pint but not. For me that’s a win win.
Changing your habits for your health isn’t easy but it is a very empowering achievement something you won’t understand until you have done it for yourself. It is a mindset. Deciding is the start but old habits do die hard. Having something available that tastes really good like Corona Zero I find makes it easier in the beginning. Now I choose zero alcohol automatically and have no good reason to change back.

I met a girl a long time ago way before I met Suzy who told me one day she’d be a tech billionaire and I believed her. She was very beautiful and gave me social capital…. Look it up. We stayed friends

I’m a lone wolf with a woman who is not my wife, accepting, partners in life by my side who I adore. I know she’s stronger than me, more compassionate than me, wiser than me and kinder than me. I love time to myself to fish, to smoke, to dabble in tech and to go off into the woods and be alone when I need to Bear Grylls it. Used to be a bad man now I’m a better man
