    Day 1

    Good morning, everyone. I just found this site last night and hope that I will find the support that I am looking for here. I must be nuts to start this on a Friday!

    I am planning to pick up some kudzu on my way home from work today. I think that the store I am goin to carries the Plantary brand. I'd love to hear from those of you who have experience with Kudzu.

    Does it work???

    Any information that you can share would be great.

    Thanks.

    Day 1

    I know that kudzu works for some people and not others, for me it seems to have some effect, the cravings aren't as bad and certain beverages don't taste as good, e.g. coffee tastes awful, fizzy drinks taste deathly sweet and AL tastes boring (wish it made it taste awful like the coffee). The brand I have is from our local Holland & Barretts store and is the 'Good 'n' Natural' brand... Not used the MWO Kudzu yet as still waiting for it to come in the post...

      Day 1

      Welcome Wannastop ---- I'm a newbie too .... found this site a couple of weeks ago out of desperation ... couldn't seem to go more than 1 day AF, and that was only because I felt like crap from having too much the day before. Even then, sometimes, I'd start to drink just to make myself feel a little better ... you know the pattern! I had some starts and stops the first week, but today I'm on my 6th day AF! I never thought I could do it. I've been visiting this site regularly since then to gather support and it has helped tremendously. I've ordered the MWO book, but it hasn't arrived yet.
      Keep visiting here and you'll be amazed at the feeling of strength you get. I've not admitted to family what I'm doing, but I'm sure hubby has noticed my not drinking. He hasn't said anything, but I feel so much better during the day. The only supps I'm taking (besides my regular vitamins) is Melatonin and Valerian to help me get to sleep. Gather strength here and stay strong!

          Day 1

          Hi wannastop-

          I'm new here, too. I just went to the doctor yesterday and was totally honest. He was really nice and helpful. He said to ease off the alcohol over about a week. He said take the time I need but to do this as swiftly as possible b/c if I don't I may never do it. This would help lessen any side effects and then he said when I get to one or two glasses of wine a night to start taking the Campral so that it will be in my system when I go AF. Now, I don't know how long I'll be AF that's why I like the ODAT thread.
          Will download book today and work on getting the supps.

          This forum is so great! I've learned so much and am getting excited about getting the alcohol out of my system...and being available to paint my 7 year olds nails when my 2 little ones go to bed rather than telling her, "Not tonight, it's time for bed". This is my standard answer to her requests, of course only after vino #4. What a great mother!

            Day 1

            Welcome wannastop! This is a great place for information and the support we all need.

            I'm still in the midst of the battle, but taking baby steps and actually had a few AF days after YEARS of heavy drinking. I really thinkthe Kudzu helps me and well as the the L-Glutine. If you can, I would buy one of the starter kits here as I think the AllOne is important as well. You'll understand more once you read the book ... fantastic book!

            Best of luck on your journey. You'll find some amazing inspiration here!
