7/15 AFD's for me so far - not sure about tonight - supposed to be having a homemade chicken madras and I find that it doesn't taste the same without a bottle of Cobra to go with it :eek: - we shall see how it goes

Have a good day all

Ohwhatamess

I knew this would be hard, but didn't realise quite how much. Seeing it written down, I'm halfway through the month and have only managed 4 days without a drink looks terrible in black and white. However it's still better than the zero I did for years. I don't know who I was kidding the other night, once upon a time I'd force myself to have a drink no matter how ill I was, sad that eh?

Ohwhatamess as you say it's 4 more than if you had just carried on as before. As you said yourself this is a habit that you have built up over years, so it will take a bit more than a couple of weeks to break the old habits and start some new healthier ones:o

Find out your trigger times and avoid them for me it's between 6pm and 8pm dinner/preparing dinner and getting past 9pm after that I seem to lose the notion for a drink.

Last night as soon as oh came in just after 6 I said there is pizza in the freezer and headed off to meet some friends for a walk - we walked 5 miles I came home had a very light meal and by this time was almost 9pm and thought well no point having one now

You are doing great :j
