Me Too!!

It's Christmas Day and I will not have any alcohol today. My first AF day in awhile but I know I can do it. I have a plan in place:

lots of L-Glut and 5HTP, eating right, listening to a hypnosis tape around 3:30 pm to relax me, and deep breathing when I feel uptight.

got some cravings on Christmas eve but I listened to some music and was ok after that. Today has been fine so far. Having a very nice Christmas here with no alcohol. Love not feeling sad and over emotional from drinking.

No drinking today

Merry Christmas! No drinking here, for sure. My big holiday drinking was always on Christmas Eve anyway, so Christmas was a day for recovery.

This afternoon I'm going to a movie by myself, which is no big deal to me. I heard from my daughter in the Navy,she's soon to be in Thailand. I've stopped feeling sorry for myself and feel grateful instead. It's nice!

Have a happy sober day!

No drinking here, either. Was up at 4:30am and probably won't get to sleep until late with little ones+Christmas candy after dinner. Yikes!

I will not drink today, feels good to be AF for all this time! , I do not miss the bloated face, bloated feet, bloated stomach, ect... I do not miss the sever headache the next morning, the rapid heart beat, the very high blood pressure, the red pasty skin, the hot and cold flashes when I am trying to sleep. I do not miss the feeling of being lazy because the aches and pains in the joints and all over tell me to stay still. I dont miss the bright lights and having the TV on very low just because even my ear lobes hurt. Sooo glad that I am on my way to AF New Years Day! Wishing everyone a AF Day!

I'm not going to drink today. I'm exhausted from the holidaze, and have no desire to make it worse.

Looking forward to normalcy, whatever that is.

None for me today - not going to compromise -- today is day 42 AF for me.

I'm not drinking today. Come Jan 1, my goal/plan is to put my kids first before me and hubby which includes grabbing a drink to make things less stressful but it ALWAYS turns out worse than anything. I exercise a couple days a week but will increase those days and when a craving hits, well I just have to put something in its place. AA may not be a bad thing. For New Years Eve, I bought a bottle of Martinelli's and will sip it with the kiddos. I'm so looking forward to having AL off my mind and out of my body.

I am not going to drink today because it will not help this cold that I have.

I am not going to drink today. I have promised myself a sober holiday season.

I am also painting doors and walls. Drinking would be a serious detriment to the outcome. :-)
