herbs helped beat a craving

[workinprogress]

I finally had the patience to let them get into my system. I was either craving or habitually wanting a beer, and told myself if I still want one an hour after taking the stuff, I could have one. After a short time, I didn't want it anymore. I mixed powdered GABA, 5-HTP, L-glutamine, kudzu, milk thistle, and powdered green algae into some v-8. It took a while to drink, because it's so thick and everything, and by the time I finished it, the craving was gone. I also exercised, re-read the book, and re-listened to the Clearing cd. Hopefully I've finally turned a corner...I've been doing this program sort of half-assed for about a month, but I'm starting over properly. I'm going to see how it goes without Topa, etc., for now though.

Thanks everyone for your encouragement...:thanks:

Thanks! And then the next day I blew it again. But today is another day. I let frustration get the better of me sometimes and lose my motivation. Must keep goal in mind at all times...

So, I had my v-8 concoction again, and besides the craving thing, it also seemed to help soothe my cough. More motivation...

I could have had it yesterday but instead I impulsively had a beer, and then continued. Not as bad as it could have been, I guess, but bad enough.
