    Can't believe there's still wine in the bottle!

    Had to share this with those moderating like myself. It was actually amazing for me to open a bottle of wine and have wine left in the bottle the next day. With my drinking history there has never been an unfinished bottle - believe me!

    Hubby and I made a nice dinner and decided to have a nice glass of red with the meal. Sipped slowly and was determined to not finish off that bottle although I kept eyeing what was left in it. When dinner was done he asked me to cork the bottle and I have to admit that I did top off my glass just a little (about 1/4 glass). But it was such an improvement for me because in the past I would have easily had a 2nd and then gone on for a 3rd...

    My ongoing challenge ofcourse will be if I can really moderate like this or if I will slowly or eventually slip back to my old ways.

    Love the support here. Feels good to be able to share this with someone!

          I know that feeling too Eve. I have actually stared at my open bottle in the fridge in shock and then patted myself on the back! Good job! Think of how good you feel today next time you think you want to overindulge.

            Congrats Eve,
            I remember the first time that happened to me. I just stared and smiled. It's such a great feeling!
            Thanks for sharing

              Well Done Eve,

              You know what is really interesting, is that when you are in the right frame of mind looking at the wine left in the bottle in the morning actually feels better than drinking it the night before would make you feel .....

              Does that make sense???

                  Congrats Eve and Sammys! I look forward to the day when I can just relax and simply have a drink with dinner.

                    I actually had only one drink yesterday myself...and I didn't really want it. It was weird. A nice weird though.
                    Good for you Eve!
