Another 4 Day AF BINGE!

Morning guys, its a beautiful day here so a few hours of hard labour in tackling my jungle of a garden is on the menu. I am quite groggy this morning, no didnt slip, I was on chat till 3am and found it really helpfull. Met some good people on there.
Macca very well done on getting through yesterday in tact. Are you going anywhere nice? In regards to the AF wine and I can only speak personally, I tried that a couple of times in the past and it really didnt work for me. It was like my little demon was saying who are trying to fool.
Sounds like you made a big impression on your date
Keep in touch if you can, enjoy your break and stay safe.

Day 8 here and I am so happy - didn't have wine Friday or Sat on a HOLIDAY WEEKEND! I would make up an excuse to drink for anything! Bad day? Wine! Good Day? Wine! Kids get good grades? Wine! I am so happy that is over. I feel better and I am hoping that this continues. Good luck everyone!

Just a thought, Macca -- maybe AL-free wine will feel like "less than" and only make you feel deprived. Why not try something new and/or different that's good in its own right? I LOVE pineapple juice with sparkling water. Or a coffee with mocha or caramel. I try to drink these new favorites only at special times so they're a treat.

Morning guys hope this finds you all well and healthy. Ron glad to hear your kichen is back in cooking mode, a body can only eat so many take aways. Monday was good for me and today is going to be better even though I have an 8 hr round trip down the country. Feeling really upbeat, this new sobriety is sitting well on my shoulders, long may it continue. Gotta run, check back in tonight.

Hi All!

Hello,
I just wanted to say a quick hello. I was googling a problem I've been haveing with a dull ache in my right side aftyer heavy drinking when I found your site. I've been really impressed with what I've seen so far:goodjob: I think that it's pretty awesome tha you all have something like this as a support network.

Soooo..... with that all said. I will be starting on the journey of (what do you guys call it?) AF. Not exactly sure what that means, but it sounds like it stands for abstinant from. Well whatever it is, it sounds like that's what everyone is striving for.

Ok all, I will stop in at some point and see if anyone responds to this message.

Take care.

Hi guys, this is turning into a cheery little thread last couple of days, great to see everyone doing so well. It really is a case of strength in numbers, lets keep up the positive vibe all.

I am wrecked after a long day out. Hard work but it was good and I seem to be more enthusiastic in general, probably a case of having higher energy levels and generally feeling healther all round. I am suprised at what a couple of dry weeks and trying to live the good life can achieve.

Hi Chywfl37, welcome along, you have found a special place here. I cant help you with any ideas as to what the pain might be but would echo Stashia's comments about maybe getting it checked out. Keep posting.

Keep safe

Good Evening All:

These long weekends are hard on me. I had a heck of a time getting back in the harness today. Course I spent a good part of my weekend here with friends and in my kitchen. I'm on day 21 today and things seem to be going according to the plan. Still hittin' the supp's, CD's, L-Glutamine and AA. I have received the Topamax but I'm a little nervous about the side effects. So, I'll just sit that out for now. I have been coming to this thread since the beginning of this process and have found some wonderful support here.

My best to all,

Blu

Hi everyone,
Sorry im a bit late checking in, but I think i am comming down with something, so I have doesed myself up and at the moment I dont feel to bad, but it is nearly my bedtime so we shall see in the morning!!!!
But apart from that I am doing really well, I think today is the first time that I have'nt thought about drink but I have had other things on my mind, like how crap I feel. But us women have to keep going otherwise the home will collapse!!!!!!!
Keep up the good work everyone, we are half way through this week
