Because...
Today is day 3 of 20,
and once again, I'm sleeping like a damn LOG!!!
I woke up not walking into walls, trying to get oriented...
I made coffee,I fed the dog, got my wife's lunch together,
made a "chore list" for my daughter, took a shower and then WALKED to work...
I am a whirlwind!
I will not drink today because...
I'm having fun NOT drinking...

I will not drink to day because

its time for me to string some AF days together.
Enough of vacation week already. I need my energy and enthusiasm back and drinking some many days in a row has sapped that from me.

Today I start my healthier eating, biking, racking up some AF days ME.
I'll feel more in control tomorrow.

I will not drink today...

Although I hate to say it;
maybe it's because I'm thirsty right this minute,
but a long, tall cold one sounds REALLY good right now...

I will not drink today because today is day 5 out of 20 and I remember feeling so GREAT this morning.
I can't feel that way after a night of even a LITTLE alcohol...
I just can't.
So I'm going to go have a BIG old glass of something biting cold,
but not alcoholic
and I'll get through this little urge.
I will not drink today because
I still remember how euphorically wonderful I felt in bed this morning
with the wind blowing through the curtains.
I want to feel that way every day!!

I will not drink today because then it will be four days out of the last 7 that I didn't drink and that will be a huge achievement for me.

Because I have just started out on abstinence for thirty days and I want to help myself and my family to be happy. DAY 1

Because I hope I will find help and support from everyone else on here to make it through.

There is no red wine in the house and that is the only drink that calls to me.

I will not drink today because I had 1/ glass of wine last night and frankly I didn't want it. I was only having it to be sociable, BUT it did take away the taboo of no wine.
So although today is Friday and traditionally a big drinking day, I am not planning to drink because:
• I want to enjoy my weekend in perfect health
• my weight loss journey will be shorter if I don't drink today
• alcohol prevents me from being the person I want to be
• I would rather put the $15 for the bottle of wine into other things, like a stylish wardrobe or a pedicure.
• I don't particularly want to feel awful tomorrow morning
• I don't want my body to focus on flushing out toxins when it could be functioning in an optimal way
• alcohol stores fat on the belly and I want a flat tummy
• my wine habit gives me bags and dark circles as well as wrinkles under my eyes and
• drinking wine makes me unhappy overall. Happy at first then morose.

I will not drink to day because:
1. it is Monday
2. My allergies are playing up because I drank a few glasses last night.
3. I am practicing moderation
4. I want to lose a kilo this week and alcohol is fattening - especially around the belly.
5. I want to save money.
6. my liver needs to have lots of water and no alcohol for a few days.
7. My skin is dehydrated and needs TLC
8. I have not reason to other than it being a habit so why bother?

I love this thread - writing down my reasons helps me maintain my resolve.
