I won the battle this evening. I ate pasta, drank pink lemonade, went to my Welsh class, had a bath, sorted two online food orders and DID NOT have the glass of wine I really wanted. :j
16/23 for me I think please Shaggy0 -
Evening all
I messed up a bit the other night and wanted to have as much as I wanted, but had just under 4 units when I measured the next day. But because of that and the last mistake a few days before a whole bottle of wine has gone
I'm not used to using up part of my store lately but I think I'm more unsettled about my diagnosis than I was at first. It's like I want to enjoy myself in case I get iller and it has to be with with booze because I don't know any other way. It feels a bit like I'm rebelling against something.
I did redeem myself and had another AFD yesterday, but I want to drink tonight. It's becoming a bit of a quandrary when I was doing so well before.
Maybe now I've reached my target and passed it I could go back to every other day for a bit. Or is that a cop out?
I do feel miles better when I don't drink, but I forget about that when it gets to the evening and the want to have fun thing takes over.
17/15 AFD please shaggy
Keep going Piggles
I couldn't stop drinking without being miserable about it, and kept wanting to drink.
I had to change myself, not just my drinking.
After doing that (and continuing to do that) then the desire to drink left me. That's when it does seem easy.0 -
Morning :hello:
1 more ALD for yesterday.
ShaggyxWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -
