Giving Up/Cutting Down Alcohol Thread Part 17

10/15 please for today Wednesday- took me a minute or so to think of the day today! Happy hump day everyone. 

Yes I could have chocolate or cheese or some tasty nibbles - sensation lime poppadoms anyone - after some of these team meetings too Wanna bee. Not sure I recall one where I left energised! Still it is getting lighter and hopefully some brighter days to come - I loathe these grey drizzly days! Good excuse to curl up with a book though.

First smiley for me today. 😊

Glad it's not just me that is finding this lockdown harder than previous ones. It seems to help knowing that I'm not alone. I think it's the sheer monotony that's getting to me. Usually I go out  dancing a couple of nights a week, and  I'm driving, so no temptation to drink.  Or I have a planned drink during the week with a meal out  but this is all so predictable. But I'm plodding on. 😉

7/10 AFDs please Cathy

Exactly this for me. The things I like to do involve not being at home!

Predictable just sums it up Maman. I’m really struggling this week, with everything, can hardly motivate myself to do anything but sleep. Feel like I’m mentally exhausted. Of course food and drink have gone to pot. Good thing is I no it will pass so I’m just treading water for now.

Good evening everyone.  I hope you're all ok 😀
I was very tempted tonight after work to have a glass of wine, but knew it wouldn't stop at one.  So the bottle stayed in the fridge!

3/20 please Cathybird 😀😀😀

It's the not being able to make plans that I am finding hard. I think if I could book a holiday knowing it is more likely to happen I could accept the isolation but for me, booking something now would just be another stress, will it go ahead or not. I'm back to trying to lose weight and normally second week in  I am ok but this time not opening a bottle of wine is really hard some nights. I'm very impressed pixnmix that you resisted even with a bottle of wine in the fridge. 

As you said Maman I'll keep plodding so 12/15 please Cathybird,
