Aiming for 7 days AF

[poppy]

After a really stressful couple of months, I am ready now to start really concentrating on my alcohol consumption. Am going to start with 7 days which will be the most I have managed in years!
I really want to know what it will feel like to not have that poison in my system. I smoke too whenI drink, so I wont be doing that either.
So, here goes.... if anyone fancies joining me that would be great.

I wanted to do that too Poppy - your mail came a day too late - but last night I had a glass of wine. Only one mind you but with it went my 7 days AF. I'm waiting for my kudzu to arrive then I'd like to give it a bash. Will contact you then - maybe you'll feel like doing another 7 days

Good luck to you. If you've made your mind up it should be easy. It's when we're uncertain that we fail. That's my experience anyway.

Thanks Rolo,
You did well to only have the one glass of wine and you still have 6 days AF so dontt beat yourself up!

I suppose my experience in the past after a slip was too feel like I had failed and that I might as well give up trying etc..The thing is that was my downfall. Slips are going to be ok for me from now on and I am not going top use them as an "excuse" to give up.

Am going to start on the topomax today :h

Hi Poppy, there with you, the very best of irish luck.
Good idea, 7 days, and then another 7, and again, you can do it. Rooting for you here

Hi Poppy,

Can I join you? I'm desperate to completely stop again and I'm having trouble. Don't feel at all bright this morning and want my peace back again. I keep stopping and starting but a good 7 day stint would be great which I'd like to continue . . . . . So today is Day 1 . . . . . (again). I'm going to keep logging on every day without fail like I did the last time because it did seem to work. Everybody speaks such good sense and they know what you're going through . . . . .

Hi Poppy --- I'll join you ... I'm in day 2 now, after a weekend at the cottage. I just received the MWO book in the mail yesterday, so will finish reading it today. Haven't got the topomax or kudzu, but do have the L-Glutamine and some other supps.

Hi Poppy,

Great goal, I'm in. I'm brand new and yeterday was supposed to be day one but I slipped and had 2 glasses of wine. But I'm determined. It's good to have support. Good Luck
