Day 7 AF for me after 10 years of nightly drinking, managed to taper off and have been off work on leave to make this first week easier for me. Quit the smokes at the same time also, hope i can keep this up.

This forum has been a great source of help for me, been reading alot of stuff on here, aiming for 3 months AF and then reevaluate my situation.

Just checking in this morning to say that I'm jumpin' through June! Day 11 for me. A few strong cravings this weekend but I overcame them and stuck to my guns. Reassuring myself that I am committed to 30 days AF come hell or high water is helping. I don't want to break a promise to myself, it would be devasting. Onwards and upwards...we're almost half way there!

1hr 45mins to go and my first week is done, every night my sleep improves, have done alot of walking and exercise this week to keep my mind off al, just got back from a walk in the rain a few hours ago, really helps to keep me from being too agitated.

Showered up, house is the cleanest it's been in ages, nice finish to the week, its amazing how much more i want to do things when i am AF, just silly little things like cleaning round the house, sorting things out.
Stay strong everyone, you deserve the life you desire.

2 weeks today. And today I am envious of those who only have off licences where AL is sold! I used to feel sorry for them, but no more! I went to Target today (sells pretty much everything) needed to mend leaky toilet, broken sprinkler and buy sun screen - put wine in basket, walked around and took it out, walked around and put it back in, walked around and took it out - and ran out of store! Very close and i have regretted not buying as much as I am proud of not getting it - this has been almost the toughest yet - so weird!
I do wish AL wasn't everywhere - and I mean everywhere - books, TV, every store, posters on freeway - everywhere I look!
Really aim to get 30 days befor egoing home to Eng for holiday - will moderate there - I know I will not manage to do AF, so plan to mod and therefore not feel as if I have failed - and if not successful will start back on day 1 on return - yup, making a plan again - wise words from all and plans do work!
Happy Sunday all and hangover free Monday on its way!

How do you know that staying off al won't work on your vacation? Why don't you give it a shot. I am on vacation right now and I am af and loving it. Ether way, at least you have a plan and go for it!

I went fishing after church and although didn't catch anything, had a great time. Mom bought me some na beers to finish out on our first fishing experience since before the 2008 floods.

3 weeks ago I had my final drink and final hangover. I am not going back for anything.

Hi June Bugs!

Day 12 for me! Glad to see some new members here and those who have been here all month, well done! We are almost halfway there! Hi to everyone, have a great Monday!

OK, I messed up. Had a couple of glasses of wine last night but it didn't taste very good and it wasn't really fun. I feel fine today, but am back on board for the rest of the month. I don't feel too bad though as this is the longest period of AF I have had in years regardless of last night. Have a great day everyone!!!

Well done Tap Dancer for jumping right back on the AF bandwagon. Anything else would have been counter-productive. Keep reporting your journey. You should be very proud of yourself.

Day 13 for me and I have tried this dozens of times before with no success. Something is different this time. Booze is all around me ALL the time and I don't feel more than a mild temptation. I have had two very close calls though; one where I actually ordered a Mike's Hard Lemonade at a Biker bar where we had stopped on a motorcycle rally run. They had none so I ordered a gingerale. I figured the fact that they had none was a sign... so close to going off my path but still on track.

Thanks for the encouragement Tips and good for you!! No hard lemonade was a sign. I am definitely hanging in there for the rest of the month, and then depending on how I feel, I may try to moderate. Maybe just a reasonable amount of wine on the weekend - period!! Take care.
