Giving up alcohol for a month

I have decided to give up alcohol for a month.

I am in dire financial straights and seem to spend a fortune in the pub. I also need to lose my wine belly and I think I rely on it too much to have a good time.

Has anyone else done this or are they thinking of doing this?

I am also writing a blog about it if you want to read it http://sobernovember.blogspot.com/
