The giving up/cutting down alcohol support thread!

Hi Shoppy just you & me today! Well done to be on day 4.
I am a day behind you, day 3 (duh!). No withdrawal symptoms, am finding it harder to stick to diet-food-plan than keep off the wine. I know, though, that if i started.......
Think I'll be OK today - made it round Sainsburys without even thinking about buying any wine (!!!!!!) so would have to make a special trip out now.
Everyone seems to be doing pretty well at the mo - I think 3 days at least equals the most I did in the whole of August & I'm not sure i even managed this much last month.
Elantan you are conspicuous by your absence - hope all OK.
Good luck all.

I had a glass of red with my dinner last night and this led to Malibu's afterwards. Its the evenings I find most difficult. I just love to sit in front of the tv relaxing with a nice glass of cold malibu and lemonade. I replace it with nice cold coke or dandelion and burdock or a cup of decaff tea usually but it isn't quite the same!

Morning

Another day under my belt :beer: this is day 5:T

Not had any major cravings yet and palps and sweats have gone but I must say I am really dreading my weekend I know this is really really sad but I cannot bear the thought of not having any all weekend - what the hell is wrong with me? Any advice on getting through it AF? I know this prob sounds petty but OH is really not being very supportive about my not drinking, the fact that I have now done 4 consecutive days is brilliant in my book and yet it has not even warranted a mention from him - am I being silly expecting praise?

Welcome back lurky!

Well done Winebox - we can crack this!!
