@thehumanpickle Getting on the wagon for ttc too, and too many other reasons to mention. Good luck getting healthy. I want to lose 25ish pounds by June and start ttc then.

@mainelylisa TTC is trying to conceive And I think NAFL is non-alcohol fatty liver.

1 week AF today 🙌 Only craving was at wine'o clock (cooking dinner) made myself a mocktail in a wine glass. It helped a little.
-
AF day 6 here. Almost a whole week. Husband and I dumped out everything last night and have plans to give away the good wine to a few people. This is hard. Can't say I'm thrilled with this process, but I know it's what needs to happen.
-
@MissMay Congratulations on 3 years! Pretty awesome. I didn't realize I was part of it when it was so new in 2018. Thanks for keeping this going for all of us.
-
Thanks so much for all of that. It really resonates with me. I'm getting help. I think I'm going to need a very long break from alcohol (years maybe) before I can consider letting it back into my life. I know I have regulated it before, but currently I can't. Having support helps, I have been a closet drinker in a world of…

4 days AF in a row. 12 AF out of 24 so far this month. I really messed things up on Wednesday, so I'm not sure I'll ever be allowed to drink again.
-
Hey I'm back. Day 3 AF in a row. Rolling total of 11 out of 23 days. I found a friend to confide in and she is helping to hold me accountable. I haven't cought up on the thread yet, but hope to get a chance later today. Thank you for the ongoing support I have found here.

I have been struggling lately. Not staying AF. I have been plagued with headaches and migraines for the past few months and and have found having a glass of wine or two does wonders for it. I can only take tylenol for pain as I'm severely allergic to other pain meds. We have evening plans tonight that do not involve…

Totally fell off the wagon the last 2 days. Feeling really depressed and defeated about it. I also have gone crazy with the eating and carbs. I wish I had a middle ground. It's either all or nothing 😭
-
It's more for dressing conservatively for personal reasons. I'm not worried about guys looking, thats their own issue. I did find some cute looking leggings/skirt combos on Amazon. I'll start with those before I'm willing so spend more money.
-
That was a thought. But wanted to see if there were other things out there
-
@Womona several years ago I had a night like that. Felt no urge to drink in the least (not like me) we were also camping at the beach, so party drinking atmosphere. Anyways that evening I got a call from a local sheriff that my mom had fallen and I needed to go meet her at the hospital. I was so thankful that I was totally…
-
Well I didn't make it AF last night. I ended up making myself an old fashioned after husband went to bed. So 1 drink. We plan to each have a drink together tonight. 8 out of 10 days AF
-
Personal post *trigger warning* Day 9 AF here. I think getting off the bottle has really helped me get my head above water. I lost a pregnancy in September and I have been in a depressed rut. Today I did really fun makeup again, I love makeup, but I have only done it like 3 times since September ( I also packed on an extra…
-
Day 8 done. 8/8 days AF I was aiming for the whole month, but husband and I are planning a home date and will have a drink. If I only drink when he does it will be a huge accomplishment.
-
Day 7 staying AF Having some mad wine cravings today. I'm going into town today by myself and I'm so tempted to buy wine but I will not, I'll only buy the eggs I need and get out of the store.
-
6 days out of 6 AF, onward to 7
-
5 of 5 days down. Feels good
-
@Tesha231 I totally relate with #5 I have a high tolerance and always have had a high one. I like to blame my scottish genes, but who knows. I can totally drink my husband under the table and he is a tall guy. Oddly I find that endearing about him :) Today went well. Got up early and got in a whole hour of book…

For me personally not being on any hormonal anything. I find the week before my period I don't lose any weight, but once it starts I see the numbers move.
-
Rough morning here. Husband came home in tears (healthcare) Covid sucks I'm so over it and my husband fighting it, but we have no choice, that's what our life is right now. I can't believe the ugly bloody things he sees every night. I feel so bad for him. He even poured himself a drink (he's not much of a drinker) I did my…
-
@MissMay yes I was probably on the thread back in 2018. I have had an on again, off again love affair with drinking for a long time. I got pregnant that year, so that easily cured me for a while. It's been seducing me lately so I really want to do a dry January. Many back and forth years of doing well with control and not.…
-
I'm back. I need 0 drinking days this month. Wish me luck.
-
Failed again last night. More wine, weekends are hard. Husband is working alot and I miss him. Him working night has always been difficult for me. He still has several more nights before his week is over and is already talking about working extras because they are short. @CMB44512 I'm sorry about the difficult situation…
-
Didn't make it last night. Remembered there was a leftover bottle of red from Thanksgiving that I knew husband wouldn't miss. Drank the whole thing before dinner was even done. Ended up with a migraine a few hours later. Karma I guess.
-
@AR10at50 thank you for sharing all of that. So much that I can relate to. @globalhiker I have that same little wine devil and a vodka devil running around in my head. Both are screaming at me to get a drink, but I really want to make my 21 days AF. Today is day 4. It's also going to be a long lonely week for me. Husband…

Day 3 done 3 days af/goal 21
-
Day 2 down! Lots of triggers today. Working with my father in law making sasuage links. Love that man but he's an *kitten*. Cooking dinner always calls for me to want to drink wine. And my cranky teenager. But I made it. My goal is 21 AF days in a row. Hopefully my husband will be willing to join me with some wine for my…

Day 1 down. Just put in my grocery order for pick up and didn't add any alcohol. Big moment for me. Keeping it out of the house. And husband drank the only beer in the house so there is literally nothing.
