Summary

Counting alcohol-free days can be a very motivating tool when reducing alcohol consumption... seeing those numbers creep up keeps many people on track, and there are several apps on the market that display the linked benefits of calories and money saved. But does counting the days mean that it's still a conscious struggle to live alcohol-free? In this episode, Jane and Clare discuss why some people may find it a pointless or demotivating task: how does it take account of slips? Should the tally always return to zero, even if it's one day of drinking after several months? Is day-counting more of an online thing to be shared? And... when do you STOP counting - consciously, and in days? We'd love to know your thoughts! Find Fizz Free on most streaming platforms, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram and X. Hosted on Acast.
