    What do you hope to gain?

    Hey PF if i can do it you certainly can. day 10 for me tomorrow. cant remember 10 days without AL in my life, maybe my teenage years.

    tell the AL devil to stick his head up someones arse and leave you alone. keep busy and keep reading on here. I congratulate u on walking past that wine, we dont really want it and def dont need it.

    Not long till u have the 30 days under your belt girl. heading for the winners post as i type.

      I looked over at the GINOURMOUS wines section and saw two of my faves right on the island on sale...

      Scooched that cart past like the devil hisself was after me - because really - he was.

      The supplements are kicking in and I the monkey chatter is dying down to a dull roar. Yay!!!

        I wonder if we could get a "Head up our Arses Club" shirt made? And sold in the store to help ensure the site has all the funding it needs to run effectively?

          Or it could be sold at Cafe Press to keep distribution costs down...

            PF, well done on passing up your favs in the wine store. Question, is there another store you can buy food at that doesn't have the AL in your town? Seems like lots of temptation! But you did it so you are only more the better for it! Well done!

            I had some thoughts of having a glass of wine tonight, I'll admit. But I didn't. It was 4PM and I was wrapping up my day at work...I had to package up some really nice Stilton (among managing the store, I also buy and merchandise a really nice selection of cheeses!) and as I was slicing it from a huge 9 pound wheel, I thought, wow, this would be so nice to sample with a glass of red wine. I fantasized about it a little and even thought of what store I could stop at on my way home from work. Again, I stayed strong and left work and came right home. It's scary that it creeps up on you like that. I was also starving and when I came home I ate right way and having been drowning myself in herbal tea ever since! Phew! Good job on everyone surviving through today AF!

              Now that sounds like a good plan, i'll buy one. actually today being pay day i must join up on this site to get the book etc. maybe now i will even have some spare cash, not that AL cost me much. the bottles i was buying were getting cheaper and cheaper.

              This weekend is my shopping day so will be interesting to see if i am tempted to buy bottles from the GINORMOUS bottle section. we have Dan Murphys in Australia and it is massive, cheap cheap cheap but avoiding that one like the plague

                No - the grocery stores here all sell wine and liquor in them as well as food. So - there is no escape from the temptation. Food is needed -and you just have to pass it.

                      [QUOTE=BlondeAFAmbition;1205189] I have so much energy! I would never had accomplished all this in the early am if I had woken up hungover! Amen to sobriety! The mornings make it trully worthwhile and I have to remember that if I get the cravings for AL on my way home from work. That's when it hits me most.
                      QUOTE]

                      Blondie - snap to all of that!

                      Good morning Heads up their Arses friends. Notice there's a bit about weight today so wanted to share a tip. Was going to start a thread soon about it but wanted to prove it to myself before sharing. Anyway it's working already so thought I'd share.

                      Check out Peter Kelder's - Ancient Secret of the Fountain of Youth. It's 5 Tibetan rites - basically 5 yoga exercises in a certain order. Really easy - takes a few minutes to begin with. Deeply cleanses the body (those Tibetans knew what they were doing!), drops the weight mega quickly and tones in all the right places. Oh, and it gives you a buzz too - and we all know how we like our buzzes. You can just google them if you fancy.

                      I've been doing them a while but never managed to get up to 21 (that's what you work up to gradually - you're meant to go gradually to allow the body to detox) but AL and hangovers always got in the way. Anyway, without them I reckon I would now be the size of a house. Few days in and I think already I can make out my beautiful toned flat tummy beneath that AL flab that used to be such a good friend of mine

                        I had to drop by this thread just to say how brilliant I think the "Heads up their Arses" club is. Believe you me I had mine stuck up there for years and it's so lovely finally getting free.

                        Keep it going, just the name is enough to put a smile on my face in the morning.
                        It could be worse, I could be filing.

                          Good Morning to everyone with a shout out to the "Heads Up our Arses Club" members!

                          Did one of you brew my coffee yet? No? Neither did my cat. FOOEY. I need minions.

                          Shuffles to kitchen... Nope no minions present since my dishes didn't get done either. What is this world coming to when one can find cheap (ie free) invisible minions to do the crap I don't feel like doing?

                          Dang I am perky when I wake up sober and have actually SLEPT.

                          Who is this PF and what have they do with the real me?

                            Hey PF. Come on over. Coffee's on. I always mix mine with a bit of regular and a bit of hazelnut. Mmmmmm. I am so happy you are feeling so chipper. It is great waking up feeling so good, isn't it? Good morning other "Heads up our Arses Club"! Come on over everyone for some yummy coffee.
                            Can't Believe, think I'll check out those moves. Not much for yoga but I'll try it. Sounds interesting.
                            For all of those that are feeling as though they have hit a wall and are under 16 days, just hang on. I truly believe it is a cycle and it will pass. I am on day 18 and feel as if I have gotten over the hump. I know that I will have more tough days ahead but hopefully the worst is over. So please hold on and be patient.
                            I wish you all a beautiful day.

                              Going to kick boxing after work - and Day 14 today... Hoping I am turning a corner. :-)

                              Ordered a bucket load more amino's/glutamine/GABA - as I have been going through that pretty quick.

                              My GF who was a partner in drinking before? I keep giving her GABA to take home before the end of the work day...she said yesterday it is working great and she was going to buy it on her own...

                                Coffee's on and strong over at my corner of the world! I agree with PF about the new "perkiness" and getting a good night's sleep now that AL isn't making it's 3AM wake up call and keeping me awake and anxious for hours.

                                PF, well one on day 14...2 whole weeks! I've got one week under my belt and heading into 2. I am right behind you...lead the way!
