what is it with me?? I just cannot do this. for tthe last 2 nights i have made do with 2 mini bottles of wine and then bed. today i bought a box--yes, a wine box! the intention being to re-fill the 2 sml bottles i had.(a box works out so much cheaper). I buried the box in a bin bag under the lining in the boot of my car.This was not to hide it from my family, but to deter me from having more than those 2 little bottles. To get it I would have to nip from my front door to the drive in my p,j's just feet from my neighbours and anyone walkin by.(I am very shy and my drive is almost on the pavement). well wadaya know I just been out there and brought it in. I am totally an utterly hopeless. I aim to have this extra glass then bed. Is there no hope for me... also, i av posted a reply re kudzo. Think i'm takin the wrong dose.500mg twice daily of kudzo root. think this may not be the same as KUDZO. can anyone advisexxx

Wine box
I too buy boxes...then see how long they last...3 nights max. Tried small 250 bottles too. Works for couple days only. -

Up to 3000mg of Kudzu a day is what's recommened so yes you are a little low. No you are not a hopeless. You have no idea how many times I slipped before I got it right. I just kept coming here and reading and posting and it sunk in.
Best of luck to you"Keep your eyes and heart focused on the end goal at all times, and never settle for less."Comment

Hi,
Determinator recommended an AF wine called Arial by J. Lohr Winery on the General Discussion post. I went online and ordered it. I'm going to give it a try--not the same thing OBVIOUSLY, but maybe it will fulfill the urge to have "wine" at hand in the evening. It's worth a shot. Good luck.

I slipped so many times,but I have now managed 6 whole weeks af
and feel great.I take 3000mg kudzo per day and it certainly helps.
I hid bottles from my family and also from myself (sounds crazy) but
I did.Your not hopeless, just have faith and keep trying.
Take care.xx.Comment

You're not hopeless~you just need to do something different. Have you tried the cd's? The L-glut like simey mentioned? Things that are non-alcoholic like Fan suggested? Nothing will change if you don't change it. Never give up. Small steps. Have faith you can do it.:flower: Change a life; make someone feel important. ................. ........................ ..................... ........................ ................. ....... sigpicComment

Maxi, it's amazing the things we do... I can relate to the buying a box to save money.
It is so hard to give up/moderate so don't be too hard on yourself. In fact be extra gentle and kind to yourself. You're going through a big shift.
