Hi Lianna. Please send me the link for the Mediterranean Diet. It's a way of eating that I think I would enjoy. Thanks
Sorry for being so late with my reply. We are traveling and I must have missed your post.
Here is the email address for support at med cookbook. Ask them for link. EBook costs A$9.95 and it is fabulous.
How was the alcohol intake this weekend? Did you manage to cut back?
Good luck with everything.
Cheers!
Lianna
It helps if I get you the email address: support@mediterraneanbook.com

Thanks Lianna. I will definitely contact them. Thanks too, for all your support on this forum. My week was good, but the week-end was a disaster - and boy, does it show on the scale :sad:0

Monday mornings it is back to a week ago, if no further. This has to stop and only I can do it: no-one forces me to drink, everyone is happy if I drink tomato juice but no, I ask for or pour alcoholic drinks. Silly girl.
It is going to be better though, with you, with me, with all of us. Give it a few weekends to get your head around it and you'll find your habits are changing.
Stay in touch.
Cheers!

I guess it's all the socialising that happens over week-ends and we live at the beach so every Friday if it's a good evening we join people for sundowners at the beach. It kicks off the week-end in a really relaxing way. Not a bad thing to do but then I am going to try and only have drinks on one of the other days in the week-end, not both, That will cut my consumption by half. Easier said than done but really worth trying as the results will speak for themselves0

On the other hand, if you exercise enough and you don't drink during the week, two drinks Friday and two drinks Saturday should not harm. Exercise to say "no" and people will admire you because deep down inside all our friends would like to (and need to) cut back.
Try it, you'll see this is true.
Stay in touch.
Cheers!

The holiday is now a memory in pictures, Easter was a lovely and very long weekend.
Today is Tuesday after Easter, finally!
No excuses, no sidetracking, just going for goal. 254 days to Christmas.
Good Luck everyone - cut back the booze, ultimately we will feel so much better if we drank less.
Cheers!

I am trying really hard to cut back on my drinking and this group is great!
My auntie introduced me to elderflower cordial with fizzy water as an alternative which I am coming round to (slowly). However, she said the most important thing is to use a nice glass like you would for your alcoholic drink so it still feels special rather than punishing.
Not sure if that will help anyone but thought I would pass it on0 -

Also, drinking from a nice glass, ice cubes and a slice of lime/lemon makes non-alcoholic beverage so much easier to drink.
Welcome to the group!

I am 6 days into my diet of no (little) carbs and no drinks. So far, so good...I was so hungry today at Walmart that I had to buy an apple and eat it while I was waiting for my husband's prescription! So far, not wanting a drink!
