Great to have you back here, Acorn! You are not the only one who has relapsed since joining (ahem....) Don't beat yourself up, just jump back on board! Let go of the guilt. It doesn't do you any good at all.
I have to say that on Day 4 I feel really, really good. So good, in fact, that I recognize this as a trigger. It's such a cycle. I drink, feel like crap, decide to stop, stop for a few days, feel better each day to the point where I feel so good that I don't know what to do with myself, then decide to celebrate "feeling good" with a nice cold glass of white wine. The twisted reasoning is: I feel so good right now -- I bet I can feel EVEN BETTER with a nice glass of wine! Insanity, really.
So even though I feel good, I'm not going to "celebrate" it. That will just kill it. I'm going to keep going.
Oh, and I'm going to the grocery store soon and will buy fresh limes and lemons. They always make soft drinks taste so much better
