at tesco i bought this bacon for 99p

it is best to wash the excess salt off it under the tap before frying or just biol it in a pot

Literally did the same thing around 3 months ago😂😂

Get well m8, similar story here, if you ever need an ear or shoulder for support DM me - brave lad you'll get past this!

Oh Gareth. I so feel for you because I’m going through the same. I ended up in hospital after collapsing due to a six day, eight bottle of gin binge. That was four months ago and I’ve had to give up completely. I’d absolutely love….LOVE a nice cold cider from my new bar fridge but I know it wouldn’t end there. Your update videos are a real help keeping me straight big man. For me family BBQs are hardest. Grandad, here normally throws on the meat for a HUGE (14 - 20) family and the count of Magners Irish ciders would normally hit around a dozen or so, just for me, by the time everyone was tucking in. Now it’s tomato juice…spicy but just not the same. Stay strong for all of us, your foodie followers, Gareth. Your videos are more important than I can say. Cheers brother

You're doing great! Keep it up! Have you noticed this? 👉If you go back and look at your complexion from when you were drinking to now (in this video), you look less puffy and your complexion looks great! You look so much healthier! You've got this!👊

Hello 👋

I quit drinking but found it almost impossible to sleep. Now drinking again to sleep better. Alcohol seems to control me unfortunately.

Thank you Gareth. I don’t drink anymore but have been struggling to quit smoking cigarettes. It started at the same time because of social anxiety. Your honesty has lit me up:) Signed up for the Stop program offered in Ontario (or the Start healthy living program as I call it) put the patch on and bought 5 bags of Fisherman’s Friends;) Remember to show yourself compassion and take pride in the person you are and what you are accomplishing. You’re an inspiration for so many of us who need to know we’re not alone and we have the strength to succeed and to flourish. Cheers mate and god speed.

Don't get me wrong. I like Just Deano but he has a drinking problem. Left unchecked he will become a hard core alcoholic.

Non alcoholic beers keep the Demon There and alive , Please Go on your own Road And it’s hard.

I have 2 suggestions for you. First, if it's harder on the weekend, maybe self-reflect why? Is it to unwind after a long work week? Anyways, that might have a clue for you. But anyways, perhaps try a new hobby, or further develop a current one. The general idea is to keep your mind busy with something enjoyable to keep your mind off of drinking. Do something productive and fun. Keep yourself from an idle mind that might run a bit rampant where you may not want it to. Maintain focus. Think of your priorities like your family, but don't guilt trip yourself....even if you make a mistake. Any one can make a mistake. One further suggestion that helped me quite a bit in the beginning when I went cold turkey to quit smoking for my son. I figured out what I would save if I didn't smoke for a week. A pack of cigarettes cost $7. $7 for 7 days is $49, roughly 50. So I figured I'd treat myself worth that money if I did so. I did the same for a month, then 3 months....then I didn't really want to continue on that same strategy to reward myself in that way for quitting smoking. I looked to other ways. Then bear in mind that depending on the level of addiction, you will always fight those urges. Even today after about a decade of not smoking it can be hard at times...soothing smelling other peoples cigarettes at times....other times it stinks like a old ashtray. If you fall 6 times....get up 7.

My sister died of a brain tumor when she was just 29. Gareth there are people out there desperately clinging to life. You need to grow up. Be a man and stop the self pity

I am addicted to smoking Pot and immoral sexual practices, I started to feel my mind fleeting and it would be cloudy all the time. Then very suddenly as i was failing again I heard a loud voice say my name. It actually frightened me because i could hear how scared they were for me. It sounded like horror. I can only imagine the sound of your families voices in absolute shock and worry for you.

Hey Gaz. I hope you don't mind me saying Gaz... you can call me Mart. But, yeah. Keep your heads up bruv. Wanna see you chewing soon. No pressure. 😉 How we all doing out here? Fine mate. Thanks. 🌼

All the best mate hope it works out for you just a shame you can't have a couple of beers without getting arseholed

You still might lose everything sober. I'd stick with the drink pal. 👍 (Joke.)

Not a fan of freybentos then

Good for you mate, we're all behind you.

Well done, mate. I find eating properly helps; if you have a big meal, you don't really want another bevvie. Hang in there 👍.

I cannot find these ... in Canada; we have Maple Style and Tomato and Molasses and Pork at 0.98 quid

00:39 Welcome mate. C'mon 👆👆🖕👆 💋👍🌬 "I know you Going through the same thing aren't you?" Man, I never heard anywords said so sincere before. 🤝

Read ‘rational recovery, the new cure for substance addiction’

Pub quiz...'frey bentos' is a port town in south America NE of Argentina.....(Hench the beef?)...Gareth..good to see you be doing more than ok...has your b belly belt notch moved?...not too late to don your mankini this summer?...as for the soup a second runner cross & Blackwell cream roast chicken is fab!...far from gopping.....best to you... x

Like others have said quit the fake stuff as well I quit 20 years ago and going full stop is the only way. it's not easy and even after 20 years I still get a urge now and again, going to say quitting smoking 15 years ago was harder but an asthma attack that nearly killed me made that choice very simple I like being alive

Im struggling with drink and I give myself the odd day off ......but watching your video has reminded me that I have a HUGE problem with booze , I secret drink , to the point of getting so leathered that I can sleep and wake with no hangover at all ....I'm trying but its very hard 😢

My favourite was spam with PanYan pickle. 👍

Thought you said you weren't an alcoholic. You definitely sound like you are one. 16 days off the booze? As someone who really isn't an alcoholic, that's something that is not in any way hard. I can tell you don't want to label yourself and don't want to admit it to yourself and everyone. But I think you need to revaluate.

Well done mate keep at it, your family are the most important thing in your life. You’ve been blessed with them.

Keep going, fella.

it's sad that drinking is normalised

Keep up the good work we all behind you ❤

Can honestly say stopping drinking at 20 yrs of age was needed for me, 51 this year & I wanted to be sober so much so I'd reached my personal gutter, non alcoholic beers will only lead to real beers, 💯 . Take care auld son but If you want to stop then stop. No fake beers just don't lift the first drink you won't get drunk, you've more reasons to stay sober for your kids, no fitba or weekend excuses cos they are no reasons to drink, I won't wish you luck but I will wish you well. No luck involved hard work only

Stay strong life will get better

Stay strong mate you looking good! You can do it.

My goodness mate! Well over 100k. I remember the 500 subscriber time. The drink is a nightmare to stop! I wish you well my man

Just subbed! I have lost ppl, do to alcoholism, and I have helped 1 friend get over it. It will be a struggle and it always is. Remember alcoholism is not the problem its is a side affect. To trauma or ongoing problems, with yourself or someone. But the struggle is sort of like going to the gym. The first times you are sore and its painful but the more you do it the easier it gets. Keep ppl updated for sure. I am just a passer by not interested in food or you, but what your doing deserves some interaction a sub and a like. I hope you stick to your guns, for your lovedone sake!

I’m 50 - Hearing your story sounded so like mine I’ve been dry since September 2020 - I made a big mistake and that stopped me in my tracks - I never wanted a drink again - It was the easiest thing I’ve ever done Stay strong mate - You’re not giving up anything Quite the opposite - You can do this !

Not sure why this video popped up on my feed You can do it Try try and try again

hi its good to see your of the beer i used to go on the beer for 7 weeks at a time and drink till i was very sick and very drunk now i am off it 16 years and now my life is easy no more black eyes and cuts and blood the first year is the hardest and after that time gos in fast and life gets better i could say more things but i dont want to sound like a know it all but fair play to you for stoping and i wish you happiness i was 15 when i started and now i am 44 so keep up the good work and if you have a slip dont worry just pull your self back up and keep going

Can we have a few Harrods food offerings? …. No one knows you in Knightsbridge Gareth, you can have a few cheeky pints in the ale house whilst youse shopping xx

Take your time. you'll get there. I'm sure your viewers are all behind you. Hopefully you'll be back to your wonderful food vids soon.

We all get a wakeup call where our health is concerned at some point in our lives. My was a heart attack at 58 because of smoking. That was 9 years ago and I've not touched a cigarette since. I crave, of course I do, but those craving are minimal now. I can even sit with others who smoke and it doesn't bother me. I quite like the smell to be honest. But... I drink alcohol very rarely because I know I could easily give in and smoke when I've had a bevvy or two. My advice is to get the non alcohol ic stuff out of the house. It will always be a reminder of booze. Tip it down the sink and have a decent coffee instead. All the best. Xx

best of luck mate
