12 month challenge..

[potsy]

Have been set a challenge for January to cut out chocolate in all forms...
This led me to see if I could do a different one each month throughout the year.

So far I am giving up..

Jan - Chocolate
Feb - Alcohol (should be easy)
March - Coffee
April - Gambling
May - Meat
June
July
August
September
October
November
December - Diets.

Now looking for ideas to fill the rest of the 12 months, needs to be health related in some way..

A month is long enough to see some benefit, but short enough to see the light at the end of the tunnel if its something I really miss

So, give me some more....

June - diets

You could alternate.....
Instead of giving something up, accomplish something.
Walk or cycle x miles, read those books you've always been meaning to, join a club/group, start a foreign language, do a course.......

Good luck

I like @HobbesOnTour's idea. You don't always want to be punishing yourself.

If you give up coffee and are a big drinker, start to cut down now...don't go cold turkey from a high base unless you enjoy pounding headaches!

As said, why not add something doing something positive in for a month rather than just depriving yourself every month!

Yep, behind the back of the eye. Plus brain fog.

All good suggestions, and to be fair a few of those I've already started in the last few weeks

This is maybe a way to cut a few things out, or to at least see if I can live without them or not...
A month is not a long sacrifice.

Have re-started learning a language, joined two walking groups and have plans to do more cycle commutes this year

November - electronic technology (except whatever you use to access cyclechat).

Edit; I know you said "health related", but tech is a constant source of frustration.
