I am so glad to hear how this group has helped you, it makes me look forward to keeping it up in here again on my part. Its helped me as well, this last week I've…
  • 7/4 - AF 7/5 - bad :( 7/6 - kept to my goal of waiting till night time, however had more than I wanted. But better then the night before so thats good. 7/7 - AF 7/8 - 3 drinks 7/9 - AF - YAY! :) Today's going to be hard. I've been arguing with my husband on and off today over stupid little things and I'm just not in the…
  • @MissMay I love that quote! I'm going to jot that down and stick it on the fridge! Does anyone have any recommendations as to a cleansing/detox? Like for your liver or something. My husband was wanting to do something to help cleanse ourselves while we push for a week of AF.
  • 7/4 - AF 7/5 - bad :( 7/6 - kept to my goal of waiting till night time, however had more than I wanted. But better then the night before so thats good. 7/7 - AF 7/8 - 3 drinks. I am so embarrassed :/ Ugh why!? I did so good all day and was like ya know I think I'll have a drink (which was okay), but one turned into 3. I…
  • 7/4 - AF 7/5 - bad :( 7/6 - kept to my goal of waiting till night time, however had more than I wanted. But better then the night before so thats good. 7/7 - AF Last night I couldn't fall asleep and thought to myself if I had a quick nightcap it would help me fall asleep or get tired. I had a quick internal battle. But it…

  • @WinoGelato aw I love that! I'm totally going to start using that now! I just think of the movie Up when its used as the shame term, I always picture the cute dog Doug lol
  • She has the cone of shame <3
  • Yes! My pups are my kids as well, I dont have children so my dogs are definitely my children lol it's so sad and hard because I have to keep a cone on her now unless I am with her and able to watch her closely. But yes my husband and I are both trying to cut way back and not use drinking as a stress relieving mechanism. I…
  • 7/4 - AF 7/5 - bad :( We came home to my dog with a bald spot on her butt, she chewed into another hotspot and pulled her hair out over it again! My poor girl did the same thing a few weeks ago and it was so bad. Its definitely stress from everything, she's very sensitive. Well needless to say we caved into the stress and…
  • I'm four days late but I'm joining! A little back story for me, the last month and a half I have renovated my home, sold it, lived in it for a few days with nothing but an air mattress, then stayed with family for 3 weeks bouncing around the state, finally my apartment was ready and made the 3 day drive, stopping at hotels…
  • Tonight was a bit of an eye opener for me. Memorial day weekend meant a bbq party. Yeah I had a little to drink, but nothing crazy and ended the night feeling "sober" (meaning yeah I had some earlier but by the end of the night felt totally fine again) since I stopped drinking earlier in the evening AND made sure this time…
  • May 20 - AF May 21 - AF May 22 - had a little to drink, it was our cheat day but looking back I wish I hadn't had any because it really didnt do anything except put a bunch of extra cals into my day and dehydrate me this morning. Wish I knew why I associated casual drinking as a "treat" to myself for not drinking for a…
  • I'm back! Sadly I haven't been checking in due to, well just laziness. And by laziness I mean quite the opposite actually. Selling a house and planning a move on such a tight schedule has just been the most chaotic and stressful thing. Especially when you're told you've got a foundation issue. Needless to say I have been…
  • May 1 - one generous size glass of whiskey in celebration of going into contract with selling our house! May 2 - 1.5 truly hard waters (150 cals) Oh and I took a sip of my husbands whiskey May 3 - AF May 4 - 2 drinks. Not too bad for a party and better than I normally would have done. One mint jelup and one truly 100…

  • May 1 - one generous size glass of whiskey in celebration of going into contract with selling our house! Today so far, opened one Truly 100 calorie hard sparkling water and sipping it. Have been logging in my foods all day and hope to keep it to just the one. Will check in tomorrow though!
  • Ready for the new month! This last week I cut out the liquor and have managed to have just the light 100 calories hard sparkling waters! With the exception of two lime-a-ritas last night in celebration of FINALLY getting our house listed and kicking it off with multiple showings on the first day! My goal for this month -…
  • One mango-rita yesterday, took like two hours to drink it. Went to the store today, husband got beer but we skipped the rum! I much rather drink one drink then have one shot of rum turn into like 6. I have to say it was progress to not buy the rum. To not want it actually!
  • @globalhiker thank you! I just woke up feeling different, I did not want it. And like you said, half a 25$ bottle down the drain and I didn't even care. I felt better tonight not having any. I had ONE mango-rita, it took me over an hour to drink just one 12oz bottle. I didnt even really want it but had it anyways. Thought…
  • I woke up feeling angry and disappointed after drinking yesterday. It's been about a month straight. So for the first time I said "screw it" and dumped half a bottle of rum down the drain just now. Goodbye rum, hello new day! Time to take myself and my goals seriously. (I tried to post a picture but it wont let me)
