    Slippery slope

    I made it 5 days AF, 1 day "moderating", blew it last night. Feeling the effects today.
    Now I get what the "senior" members mean when they say to go AF for 30 days.
    So, here is my new day 1. I have vowed that I will not buy wine for the house, as that is what slips me up. I do have some social events coming up, but know that I can have a glass or 2 in a restaurant and stop; the problem is if there is wine at home after 2 glasses at the restaurant. Then I slide down that slippery slope.
    Goal: 30 days no wine in house = 30 days moderating = 30 days feeling a hell of a lot better about myself. Why did I give up that great feeling that was building?!! I hadn't felt so positive and optimistic for such a long time! Looking forward to getting that back. Wish me luck.

    Good luck to you! You have a plan and that is important. See how it works out for you and adjust from there.

                4MyHealth - Good luck and stay strong! My downfall in the past was having AL in the house. I did not drink a lot at social events, but would come home afterwards and polish off a bottle of wine. Wishing you lot's of success and we are here to support you!

                  Farm Girl can relate to that bottle when I get home Mr Q and I do that all the time.
