A BRAND NEW 30 DAYS..ANYONE UP 4 IT ?

Hi everyone!

Day 10! Double Digits at last! Give yourselves a pat on the back.

Another long sleep last night, totally overslept and had to really rush to get the kids to school. I'm sure it's my body's way of healing. So far I have been using only will power to go AF, that alone with the support on this site and gallons of water with fresh lemon was enough to do the trick last time I did 30 days. But today I decided to get some supps and see if I notice any differences. So many here are raving about L Glutomine so I thought it might be worth a try. Will let you know in a day or two if I feel and different.

Hi... just happened on this site.. nice to see another Perth person, lol.
I'll have to read up on this and find where to start... on a quick thought wondering re topamax and Campril. I no they suggest campril here at our local alcohol authority... but doesn't it make you sick if you then have any alcohol?
Anyways, I am sick and tired of being sick and tired... and alcohol is making me an imsomniac. I drink a bottle of wine then I try to eat and eat so i won't wake with a hangover... but what gives me the sick and tireds is that I'm awake after 2 hours and spend the rest of the night wide awake and nervy.
This is my first af day for a week and i've been suffering from 4pm... I don't think I could go a weekend without wine???

Haven't had an AF day for a very long time and I don't think this hole that I've dug for myself can go any deeper. I'm in!!!!!!!!

Welcome cup & garlando

You have come to the right place, filled with friends who really 'get it' who have either been there and have lots of advice and motivation or those like me going through it all and probably feeling a lot of things you will be feeling - like a weekend without wine......hard to comprehend. I just started on the 30 day alcohol free thread (or you could try the 4 day AF thread), got connected with a load of people doing the same and have somehow managed to stay off the alcohol for longer than I ever thought I could. Only 11 days but for me thats a record. Keep reading keep posting keep connected and think only of one day at a time

Hello 30 day dudes and dudettes!

Welcome newbies! Hope everyone is doing ok today.

Blue, I definitely think of all the supplements the L-Glutamine is the most important of the non-prescription ones, then the Kudzu would be next in line. It is really not that expensive either, and people I've read on here who are not doing many other supplements swear by the L-Glut at the bare minimum of taking something. Give it a go, I haven't heard of ANY side effects at all from that one.

Mom2, when is the actual move coming up? Glad you sold your house that has to be a big relief in this yucky real estate market.

Taz, you are well into the double digits, look at you go!!! :wow:

Have a good one everybody.

Scrubbly - our move is the end of the month. We are closing on this house July 2nd but it will be empty by July 1st b/c they get possession at closing. I may stay with my mom a few days if the movers come early. The coordinating of it all is driving me the most crazy! We should be able to be in our place out there July 1st or 2nd. A day or so of drive time for the movers so we will see how long it takes them. As soon as I close here I am driving out there to meet my husband! Miss him lots!

Today was another busy, somewhat stressful day but am still off the vino! Day 17 I think I am kind of grumpy today - it is the type of day that would have sent me straight to the wine in the past but I am happy to not be doing that.

Keep up the good work everyone. We will be hitting that 30 day mark before you know it!

Hi 30 Dayers

Still going strong. Scrubbly, I got the supps that MWO recommend on the website, L Glutamine, Kudzo, Milk Thistle, Magnesium and Evening Primrose. Will let you know if I feel different, must say although I only started yesterday I felt more energised and wide awake last night which is unusual for me as I am not an evening person. Might be my blood sugar stabalising with the L Glutamine as I have been so tired since going AF.

Getting excited for day 20 Scrubbly!!!!!!! I am drinking more coffee these days too. Bought some half-calf but it wasn't ground and then realized hubby took the grinder when he moved ahead of us! I think I am going to get some decaf today at the grocery store!

Happy Friday everyone!!!!!!!

OOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo Fabs, you are such my hero for the gym thing. That is my next big effort to tackle. I envy you having the energy to get to the gym. With a VERY full time job and 2 little ones at home, I barely find time to do my posts and take care of basic chores around the house. The thought of dragging out to the gym is overwhelming, but I know that for long term abstaining or modding it's going to be important to get my fanny moving too. You will make it past your record this time! Day 13 is in sight!

And Taz, although you won't see this until your weekend in the city is over, I'm sure you will be coming back with a success story...we are sending good vibes your way!!

Good going everyone! Happy weekend and stay strong....stay busy and we will be ok!!!
