Congrats sunshine and sri you are both well on the way now and the insomnia. I put it down to us having to re-train our bodies to fall asleep again instead of just passing out. I'm 86 days AF and still not sleeping so good. Hang in there guy's one step at a time, anything is possible. I couldn't do more than 20 hours AF for over 15 years 8 months ago until i found this site. This programe and all these fantastic people have helped me change my life and are still helping me, small steps, anything is possible. Great work guys. Us Aussie are pretty strange hey, love the scarf babe, love the scarf. Kim

Thank you everyone for all your support and great job to all who continue to be AF :goodjob:
I made it through another night in spite of the fact I got home from work, logged on my computer, and found I had no internet access

I was on the phone with the cable company for an hour and a half, almost two hours, and they couldn't figure out what was wrong. So frustrating!! All I could think of was (no, not a drink amazingly) I had to get it fixed today, (Friday, a work day), since I can't be without this board on my first AF weekend. So I went to bed totally frustrated, but totally sober. Took 2 Calms Forte, but still couldn't sleep. I'm tired, but not hungover; I like tired better

So I get up this morning, check my computer and lo and behold, I'm up and running, no problems! Must have been the winter storm we were getting. Yippy, I'm all set for the weekend, can't be AF without you!

Chalk up day two, a milestone for me, :thanks:

Sunshinegirl, good for you!!:good job:

I can completely understand the drink after work. It gets easier with each day AF. It's a struggle but well worth it. Today I am 30 days AF for the first time in a long time, thanks to this forum,th program, and these people.

Sleepy is way better than hungover!!!!!!!!!

And sups do help!

Great Job all of you!! WOW!!

Sleep does get easier. AF gets easier. Sorry about your internet service Sunshine Girl.

Totally understand the drink right after work. Started changing my cooking routine for a few months and popped things into the oven rather than Chinese meals so instead of chopping and drinking, I was riding my bike to replace the drinks.

KitKat is right, supps help a LOT!!

Going home in a few minutes. Friday night, my favorite drinking night. I just keep telling myself how great I am going to feel tomorrow AF and how much I can get done around the house without a terrible hangover. I think of all those Saturdays and Sundays watching Lifetime movies on the couch because I was too hungover to do anything else. What a waste ~

Well, I did have a small setback last evening. I went to a friends Oscar party. I did break down and had 2 glasses of wine. But that was it, after that I drank water. So it wasn't a complete breakdown. I used to drink 2 bottles on a Sunday afternoon, so I'm not beating myself up over 2 glasses. I still felt great this morning and plan on staying AF this week. Now that I know I can do it
