Getting behind again.
I did not drink yesterday.
Nor the day before.
Strength to you FT. Keep checking in when tempted.
I find the sweets/crazies monsters come calling during the new/full moon phase. Being conscious is half the battle. Set yourself up with healthy sweet alternatives instead of feeling deprived and fighting it.

I am constantly battling the sweets thing as well. I need to try taking the l-glutamine consistently to see if that helps. Have a good day everyone.

I did not drink yesterday. Again. And tonight, for the first time, I got all the way through the day & dinner without a glass of wine even crossing my mind. Yay! 16 days & counting. But wishing I was in a place where the number of days no longer mattered.

You will get there Quakegirl, just keep on doing what you're doing and it will become your new normal.

I haven't had a drink for 28 days and feel bloody brilliant, but mainly I feel real peace, I intend to guard my quit with ferocious determination this year.

I didn't drink any yesterday. My liver doesn't like it when I drink.

I didn't drink any yesterday. Alcohol and my liver don't get along very well any more

i didnt drink yesterday,but temptation was high because of anxiety

I know what you mean, Paulywogg.

Anxiety is a real trigger for me, too, along with going at the speed of sound at work all day, and getting home and feeling like I need to drink to slow myself down and change gears.

I did not drink yesterday, and I am so excited to be able to come here for another day, and say that. And because I want to be able to come back here and say that again tomorrow, I won't give in to all the wine around me at the airline lounge I'm sitting in right now.

Quake girl: it must be tough to be there around that area... Grab a good book to read... That would be where I would spend 2000 calories on a super yummy juicy non-alcoholic drink if I didn't have l glut w me... I even took l- glut to Taiwan w me last time I traveled!

Great job you two. Dealing with anxiety or anger or loss without the booze is a whole learning process and it's really what the journey to sobriety is all about. We have to find new mechanisms to handle all that life brings to us.

Indeed. Just like booze we can chose our emotions. Anxiety is a state of mind chosen. While I don't discount events that can induce anxiety(as I am currently in such extreme situation)we CAN mount our horses with confidence and no fear. Know thyself but more important know thy enemy.

Keep thine enemy close me thinks......

I have not had a drink on any of the days since my last visit here! Yeeeee haaaaawwww me also thinks!!

Even though cravings are hitting me (my favorite hangout is closing and my AL mind keeps telling me to have a few beers on closing day which I know won't be just a few) but didn't drink last night and not drinking tonight ether. ODAAT works!

I felt great this morning and I know if I were to drink now, 20 months would be gone and I would have to start back at day 1. They are not as strong as cravings in the early days, but they are still there as a reminder to never let my guard down when it comes to alcohol.
