AF Anyone??

Hi - I'm starting a 30 day stint (my first!) with Cooking Happy so the more the merrier!

[AMELIA]

AF Anyone??

Bessie, Welcome - great to have you here. Hello to Cooking Happy too, looking forward to reading about your progress!!!!!

Hey Prose, I was nearly going to post a 'are you ok' message, but sounds like you are doing really well! I know you said in your last post that dealing with some of the therapists feedback had something to do with you having a drink. I know from experience that it can be very challenging to say the least, going and talking to someone and working through your personal issues. I have recently seen a therapist and sometimes left feeling fantastic and on top of the world and other times walked straight to the bottle shopl. Not and ideal reaction of course, but I do know what you mean.
The thing is though, that ultimately you are making an effort to sort out your situation and it shows in your AF days (Sorry for my under count). Good on you.
Finski, so happy to read that you are on 13 days!! Way to go and I am pleased it hasn't been too awful for you cravings wise. As Cuckoo says you sound so upbeat, it is contagious - Thankyou.

Cuckoo, I am signing off my first AF night for a while so am feeling good (if not 'wide awake') We are all in this together - absolutely and that's what makes the 'down' days bearable.

Wakeupmom, hope you are well and happy and on as fine form as you were at lunch.
I know you said a few times to me that I had to be in the right 'head' space or frame of mind to want to go AF again and, well I have made a day.....lets see how many more I can do.

FJones and Go 2 how are you getting on???

Right I have gotta drag my butt off to bed.

I am away for the next two days, so please don't think I have gone on a bender or anything....

Hi everyone,
good to see the new names!
Sounds like you are all doing well, I think of you all as my "team", which is kind of weird because I never played any sport or anything, but it sure helps to have the support.
Amelia, thanks for your concern, and we will look for you when you get back, are you doing something fun?
Wakeupmom, you sound like you are doing really well, are you af or moderating?
our internet is up and down, so if I don't post that is why, take care everyone! P

Wakeupmom, so good to hear from you. Congrats on the 5 days AF. As someone on another post said those 5 days are yours and can't be taken away from you. So enjoy. Tonight makes it 2 nights AF since the weekend so I'm feeling pretty good. Will try to go to bed early and read. Have a good evening and take care.

This is my first day on the site and day one AF - slipped yesterday and had a bottle of wine last night. I am looking forward to having a hangover free day tomorrow and for many more days to come..........I am definitly in for 30 days - ordered my starter kit today - is it helping you guys?:new:

[cuckoosnest83]

AF Anyone??

:welcome: universal, yes, I ordered the supplements and they are helping me. I also ordered the topamax and found that to be a big help but others have done it without the meds. I tried going AF in October and only made if 4 days so far this month it has been 10 days so I'm already double what I did in November. It might take a few tries but you can do it. A lot of people here willing to help with support and encouragement. This is a great thread too. Same people have been posting for over a month. A very good group of people.

[universal]

AF Anyone??

I ordered the topomax too so we shall see how it goes. I already feel like there is a lot of support just reading all the forum posts. Good to know I'm not alone in how I'm feeling. I'm looking forward to getting my kit and the meds and reading the book. I'll definitly be back on to check everyone's progress as well as update on my own.

Good luck, universal. It seems like you are starting out with a very good attitude and I think that is half the battle.

I'm not doing so good myself wakeupmom - keep checking in - hopefully we can help each other through some of the hard times..........have you used any of the supps? have they worked for you? I am still waiting for mine.

[cuckoosnest83]

AF Anyone??

Well wakeupmom and universal, doesn't 3 win the prize because I'm not doing too good myself.

Hi Universal and Cuckoo!
Well i really want to put 30 days together,its so hard to get the passion to do it,and to maintane it.
Any way here i go again day 1.
Universal i hope your supps come soon.I think they do help,at least you go some way to repair your system.Also the kudzu for me reduced the cravings.I find the phycological pulling the most destructive.Still trying to work on that one-like you said lets do it together.Wishing you well,and congratulations on making the first move xx
Cuckoo.See your on 4 consectutive days probly 5 now.Thats great,just stay close even if your not feeling great xx
Amelia,Let us know how your trip went.Wishing you the best xx
Prose,Hows you?Hope the computor is ok xx
