Way to Go, Vida!
I just wrote a long post regarding how I love MWO's counting as opposed to the AA way of counting.
MWO is so much more positive and really tunes in to how much less you are drinking spending, etc. AA seems to want to keep counting until you have 1 drink and then smack on the nose and back to the end of the line.
I don't want to get down on AA, but it seems really counterproductive to be waiting for failure rather than rewarding success.

Anyway, good for you. I remember when you first started coming to this board, sounding bleary eyed and desperate (like me!) and now you sound terrific. I'm so excited for you.

Take care,
Kel

I LOVE your post, Vida!! Loved your idea about visualizing the weekend as well. I am currently using that model!
Hey, it's 7:45 here and I am coherent! Thank you for the wonderful ideas. You seem very instrumental in providing support for this program, and I thank you.

Inspirational Words

I loved all the posts above! I began the program over a year ago and learned how to drink moderately. Like this month, I will occasionally do months of no drinking at all. I like to do that just to keep my system clean and I think it really helps keep me in check and allows me stay on my path of moderation. I still do the hypno even after a year and especially during my no drinking months.

Need to go start dinner!

JUST ONE DRINK/BETTER BE WATER

Hi vida21
I?m new at site matter of fact this my time here. I think that?s Great that you can take one drink without any problems. If it were I, it would like me WAITING around wondering why I have not pass out.&nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp I think if right now I ?had just 1st drink I would end up drinking ? gallons (that?s straight hard liquor). But I?m ready to get started on MWO. So go girl happy 4u.


Congratulations

Re: Drinks this day

I just lost a post into space! 15 min worth! Anyway, a whole mo.? That sounds so llooonnnggg!!! Maybe I can get my Hubby to join me on that. I think that's about the only way I could do it here. It's hard w/ it in the house.
I've been doin pretty good, 2or 3 beers a nite, which for me is amazing.
The timing couldn't be better for me tho. going back to an old waitressing job, that I got fired from 2 or 3 times, ...for showing up drunk! Now he wants me back! Amazing ! I can't blow it this time. I've mentioned this program to him, obviously my problem is no big secret there! I know I can do it. Really don't want to blow it again, they are such nice people, & miss pickin on the public! That's what I get the big bucks for! Hugs Judie
