    Made it a week...then slipped

    well, i guess now is the time i get back up and dust myself off and begin again. i was doing great. i made it a week and then something crazy posessed me to drink. i was really pissed at myself afterward too. all i can do is keep trying...right?

          Ditto.
          Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life... And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

            Red, Don't beat yourself up. It happens to all of us. I was sailing smoothly along on my 11th day AF last week when I had overpowering urges. They blindsided me and I succumbed. I'm now starting day 3 AF and am determined this time to keep the beast at bay. Come on, we can do it.

                      It doesn`t matter how many times you slip, just as long as you get back up again to fight with renewed strength and total commitment.

                      Nothing truly worth having ever comes easy.

                      Love and strength to you all.

                            I can't tell you how many times I've slipped. One of these days, you're just going to totally decide to stop. Good luck. Mary (51 AF days)
