I made it 30 days

[disapprovingcat]

Thank you to everyone here who absolutely 110% made me realize that I wasn't alone in the struggle.

I had no intention of going 30 days (I didn't think I wanted to) when I joined up - 2 weeks seemed like the lowest number to convince myself that I was really OK and in control of my drinking and the highest number that I would want to be AF.

I don't know what's next, but thank you all for helping me. :h

Congratulations! Isn't it great to be on top instead of under your life?!

thank you - and congratulations to you too!

I don't know if I'm on top yet, but it certainly feels less like I'm faking it!

D-Cat,
Well Done!! I hope you keep going!! Most of us start here with some idea about Modding or stopping just for a certain period of time..........and then...........before we know it, we wrap our heads around the thought of simply becoming non-drinkers!!

Again....Congrats!! Yes, what BHOG said....Be Strong!

DaC,

I am so happy for you, feels great too doesn't it!! I am just a couple days further along and I too sometimes wonder what this is all about. Nobody put a gun to my head to force me to go AF, but I am so glad I did and I am getting quite comfortable with the notion of no more AL in my life - it is a good thing!

Congrats on the 30 days!!! Did it sneak up on you or did you notice every day? I always wonder that.

How lovely - thanks very much! It's the positive attitude that you all have that keep me going.

Noelle - I have been counting. When I hit 3 weeks-ish I decided to go 30 days. At the time I looked at my calendar and said - dang that falls mid week, if I'm going to have a go at moderating I'll carry on to the weekend then open a bottle of nice wine.

But at this point I think I'll carry on. I've lost 7 lbs. My body and head are still complaining a little so I think I still have detoxing to do, I'm picking up some vitamins today. But remarkably, my cravings have all but disappeared. I think I'd rather not start up, even though I don't want to say never.

vettech - I'm heading out to lunch with a friend now :h I'm going to a place with chocolate shakes not margaritas :H

really - thanks to all - you're my gang of helpers on my shoulder

Good for you carrying on. I know mods can be done, but for me, it just isn't a possibility.

For some reason I didn't count the days and I'd have to count to find out how many I have right now. But then I don't know why or why not I do the things I do. I'm a goof!

Again, keep going as long as you want Hover!!:happy::disco::dancin:
