I ate THREE Mars bars :upset:

Picture, if you will...

Mr. Wonderful is away for the night. I legitimately have to go to the store late afternoon. I couldn't have set it up better if I'd tried. And sure enough... there is that 'thought'. Why? Why now? Why today? When I'm actually feeling very good and confident and in tune with my sobriety?

I feel sick to my stomach. I guess 3 chocolate bars and a big glass of milk will do that to ya. Thankfully, I won't wake up at 3am with fuzzy slippers in my mouth and a pounding head ache. I may feel some regret when I step on the scale in the morning but it could have been much worse.

Seems like one of the very few things I never did was wake up with fuzzy slippers in my mouth.

I have awakened on a grass lawn with the police dragging me up and taking me to a hotel. I have awakened with a brand new bottle of vodka under my arms, which meant I had DRIVEN to the "closest" Liquor store, which resides on a very dangerous highway. I have awakened in motel rooms wondering what freaking day it was and oh, where am I?

But, I have not truly awakened yet.

Good on you for the Mars bars. I am sure they were Heavenly.

I am actually quite proud and happy for you Sunnibutt.

Love,
Cindi

Oh, and I truly do realize the fuzzy slippers thing was a metaphor. Right??

:H BUT - think about the empty calories a bucket full of booze would have been!! Three mars bars was a pretty good effort though.....what a girl. It reminds me of a plaque my PA has on her desk which says "I'd give up chocolate, but I'm no quitter!"

Seriously, well done on NOT giving in to the head game of drinking!!

Great alternative

Candy bars? Yeah! Beats the heck out of
alcohol!
As time goes on coping methods expand.
I'm trying to make mine exercise, but tonight
coconut pecan cookies.
So wonderful to be straight and clear!

With Halloween just passed, we have more than our share of candy at our house. It has actually helped me - not my big ass, but I'm certainly not drinking!

Totally understand the mars bars!
When I am tired or stressed, sugar and/or caffiene spring to mind. Depends on how I am feeling as to whether I 'go there'. Just had a little pot of drinking chocolate and honey mixed together - to eat! Not good, but not alcohol!
