    Alcohol Free October

    Hey nesters, my wife is working nights this my 4th weekend free. I know enough that my drinker's mind is plotting, it has got full victim attitude coming over the wall. It is plotting something for this weekend. I heard b4,"oh I hate my job" "man it is so boring" Blah blah blah.

    Yesterday it talked me into drinking a 1/4 pounder and large fries. You know what I am saying? Please post a little help here.

    I feel better knowing I have a place to come, but you know the other side does not play fair.

    Here is to sooober Octooooober.

      Dryer, stay close to these boards and we'll help you through the weekend. It's up to you to fight that little voice in your head that pushes you towards drinking. We all have one. We are here for you.

          Hi Dryer, post, post, and post. Exercise, exercise, and then drink lots of water. I find when I am exercising the voice can work past the music I am listening to while working out. You can do this.

            How are doing Dryer? Despite family stress I am not tempted to drink. I reviewed the many posts on the "What I loathe about alcohol" thread. Was a great reminder of the perils of alcohol abuse.

                  Hey Dottie I have the NINJA, I tried this morning to dupliate a shake I made the other day. It tasted like a chocalate covered strawberry. I did not have any cherry koolaid and I think thats what is was missing. I will post that in the recipes and let you know when I get it right again.

                  I NINJA almost every morning too. Cool

                    I want to try the pumpkin smoothie recipe that's been posted. So glad to be cheering others on and feeling the love. This thread is going to rock. Look out booze !! I want to choose a reward for myself on the 31st. Will have to think about it. Stay strong fellow Soberoctobies. When you get tempted and you will, just get on here and read some posts in the tools or that one I mentioned earlier. G'nite

                            Dear Gingerspice,
                            My advise is to spend as much time on MWO and post as often as you can. Just telling people you are determined to make this your last quit reinforces your thinking. The more you say it, the more it becomes real. You have done so well, you know you want to keep going.
