TGIF. Another week gone by but a weekend full of temptations ahead. Thankfully i'm busy (son's birthday party and church on Sunday).
Just wanted to pick up on the conversation in yestarday's ODAT thread on sipping alchol inadvertantly but not going on a bender, etc. mollyka's comment being the last.
I think it's all in the mindset. When you take that sip by mistake you havn't given up. You havn't compromised. You are still in control of the situation. While when you made the consicous decision you are more prone to feelings such as: well it's all lost now in anycase, etc.
Having said that I think it also depends on your state of mind. If you have been going through a tough bit of your AF stint with lots of cravings, etc. that sip could just be the trigger, while when you're going strong it might not phase you. Would also be different from person to person. Just saying that because I think we should do everything in our power when we're AF, that a mistake like this doesn't happen. You'll never know what'll happen ?!
Have a great AF day and weekend.
