Review for the December challenge

If you want to reflect the December challenge, you just found the right thread!

(btw: do you say "review of the challenge" or "review for the challenge"? Sorry, my English isn't that good :))

So, this is my summary for December 2007:

Cut down on alcohol (drink if at all on special occasions) (continued report from November):
December is kind of a tough month as there are many parties. I reduced the amount I drank (most evenings it was one glass of beer, sparkling wine, whatever). Nonetheless it is "shocking" that there were 8 evenings I drank alcohol. It clearly is part of the social get-together. (Remember, I never drink alone or at home.)
I want to reduce this further, so I continue my report in January.
Cut down on sweets (cheat day is Saturday) (continued report from November):
This went really well. I used my four cheat days and failed only once although Christmas season is sweets season. I don't think I need to continue reporting here.
Keep a personal diary to learn more about yourself and improve the self-awareness. I don't need to write every day, but will write at least once a week, if nothing bothers me during the week:
I really loved writing the personal diary and definitely will continue this. I wrote more often than once a week (whenever I felt like it) and helped clear out my mind with this. You can learn really much about yourself this way! Improving self-awareness and self-confidence is my January challenge and this will be a part of it.
