Hi
I hope no one minds me joining in this thread, I do really well when there is no Al in the house, but when there is, I have to drink it. I was AF from the 1st to the 11th Jan, then I crashed, but from tomorrow I want to start trying again. So here I go again, wishing you all the best, and I will be trying my hardest along with all of you to be AF.
Take care:l

Hi Elsa and big hugs!
Yes I am the same, if its in the house then I have to drink it! But then I am like that with chocolate too LOL.

Funny thing is, we have wine and other spirits in the house and none of these tempt me at all..but once I start the bourbon & coke...it's like I just can't stop......so I try not to buy the bourbon. If that;'s not around then I don't drink. Hubby drinks beer and is good at moderating,I can't stand beer urgh! or wine now even though I used to drink that a bit. So in some ways its good that my tasts is so specific. Hmm, there's a thought, I wonder if its usual for the addiction to be mainly about one type of drink,not all or anything??? Has anyone else found that?
I'm going for 6 Af days now as of today....hope you all have your diving gear on...
Jump in the water's fine!!!!!!!!

Hi Ladies!!
Good talking to you in chat, Tawny.
Well, I got up this morning feeling like crap warmed-over for yet another time. Excuse the description but that is the only true portrayal of how I feel. Every single day when I drink. I am so tired of feeling tired that I decided that this day will be my new Day One AF. And I am going to do my best to make it stick this time. The on and off stuff is no good. Two days AF one day AL. Just has the same end result. I feel crappy. Since I really don't have a good excuse to reach for the bottle - no excuse at all really, I am going to do this, once and for all. I've read a few old threads about how people came to MWO and what they've gone through in their lives. Lord you would almost think they had to drink to forget about all that stuff and yet here they are, AF and kicking. So, looks like I need to read and re-read their posts and stories whenever I get the urge, and just remember what some others here have gone through and that they are still AF. We can do this ladies. We really can!!!

Divers you rock!

Hi Divers!

Well today has been a trial by fire..aka trying to get trhough a day with a pre-schooler and a toddler who are hell-bent on messing with Mum's brain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Needless to say, they succeeded and I have therefore turned to my usual weakness. But on a bright note, I actually got myself a pearl last night, for the first time in a bout a week!
So not all bad!

I am hoping I can pull back on the reigns tonight before I go too far..have had about 4 so far.

Diving,diving diving!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm treading water right now!

I am so sick of having this problem! Of thinking about it, of fighting it ,of planning my tactics!
I never thought that this would be..the issue of my life! How in heck did this happen?Why did I get like this? Why is it so hard to give up,despite what I know?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It shi*#*s me that it has a hold on me! It really does. I feel so angry about the whole infernal situation.......

Chook (goes diving on the morrow)
