    Diary Style is how I roll.

    Didn't you feel the "buzz" of the beer on the first sip after 44 days?

    Here we go, February:
    Feb 1-2 - AF
    Feb 3-5 - stuck with 2 drink limit
    Feb 6-7 AF The AF days are sometimes easier than sticking to the 2 drink limit!

    Can't wait! You are teasing us : - )

    @MissMay
    Definitely that did not wreck your streak. You intentionally went to the place that you knew had 00
    The bottles look so similar.

    Hope that the ear drops are helping.

    Hi all, just catching up with February, in addition to opening up a 4 week pile of mail and going through 450 emails. Covid in January knocked me for such a loop that I am STILL digging out! But at least I feel better!

    Despite best intentions to be AF this morning, I came home from a long day at work and immediately poured myself a glass of wine. I’m only having one, but I am way off my goal of AF during the week and only one on the weekend. It’s a choice, yes. Discipline went out the window tonight.

    Oh my gosh this is not a fair way to start the new year for you. We wondered where you'd run off to. I hear it is a slow climb back to normal after having covid. Take care 🤗

    Thanks Dawn, it has been an issue that keeps reappearing just when I think it is finally cleared up. Need some sunshine and maybe some white sand as a cure.😉

    Good afternoon everyone,
    I’m excited to say that my first week went well on the AF days, without feeling deprived or any cravings. Well, I did eat too many graham crackers vs. eating chocolate, I’m thinking my chocolate habit isn’t as bad as I originally thought…one dove dark promise is 42calories and the sleeve of the graham cracker stacker is 250cals….so I might stick with the one piece of chocolate per night 😄
    I started Monday 1/31
    AF days: 6
    A days: 1

    Have a great day everyone!🙋🏻‍♀️

    So upbeat and positive, love it. And I agree probably the chocolate is a far better choice. Thanks for checking in.

    @MissMay One more vote for continuing your streak. Unless you have to report to a parole officer, I would not even count one unintentional drink. The important thing is your mindset!

    OK..........you made me spit coffee out of my nose with the parole officer comment.
    Thanks ~ needed that!🤣
