[New Day]

Good Day all ---- I've been watching for my favourite thread to start .... I'm not sure where everyone is, so thought I'd start it up to see if others were sitting on the sidelines like I was!

I'm only on day 2, but feeling good. I was extremely tired last night and went to bed at 9:30 pm ..... and had a terrific night's sleep .... 10 hours! It's tonight that will probably be more difficult from past experience of staying AF.

Wishing you all a great AF day!

Hey New Day,

I'm going to be AF today, too. Had a little too much last night and that's afer a sober New Year's Eve! What a dummy I am.

I'm working in my office today so will be on quite a bit but I have a LOT of paperwork to do. End of year crap. I hate this stuff so I want to get it over with.

Happy day, ODATers!

Be --- I totally understand where you're coming from .... you stayed AF for New Year's, and then it was probably your mind saying ... "well, you had a great achievement ... that was a toughie ... reward yourself for doing so well!" .... I've had that little head conversation many, many times!

Good luck with the paperwork, Be.

Barely drank yesterday - ok, well, 2 glasses of wine.

Now I have to wait for a phone interview... and I'm kind of freaking out. I've already had about 3-4 glasses of wine. I figure I can eat/sleep it off before they call in two hours!

I'm pretty sure I have some sort of anxiety disorder. Damn.

And also some sort of "kick myself in the stomach" disorder. WTH is up w/that? Why don't I ALLOW myself to do well...?

Do I really hate myself that much?

I self-sabotage. I don't allow myself success. I "want"?? myself to fail? WHY?

So then I can drink in despair. ??

OK, that is worse than pitiful.

Other than that, all's well!

Good Afternoon All, doing well today, found my lost diamond earing that I thought for sure was gone for good. Did some yoga with my daughter, then sit-ups - yuck and just finished running on the treadmill, I am determined to loose this weight. Won't be on here long my boy child is waiting for the computer and my father-in-law just walked in and everyone is standing around me. Hope everyone is doing well and has a great day. Day 7 for me again, but when I step back and think about it I only drank twice since Nov. 10th so I think that is pretty damn good.

Greetings all
that is absolutly the way to look at it TwoSox, I dont beleive that you lose all the AF day's you stack up if you slip up, you still own them, As I can say to myself I've had 2 glasses of wine in 31 days, compared to 1 bottle of wine a almost every night previously, I feel I have made progress. anyway good luck today ODATer's

Hello everyone.

I completed day 5, no worries, no cravings. I agree twosox, I have drunk twice since mid December. I feel better for it, but those 2 days really stuffed me up. My goal is to do 30.
