Thanks. I do have a fridge at work. I just didn't plan for my work day yesterday outside of the office.

I like your plan of a nice dinner nightly.

Something I did in the first couple weeks was to treat myself to a great meal each evening (carry-out from my favorite restaurants). It gave me something to look forward to each day instead of drinking. I also got myself some great things to drink like those expensive, healthy smoothies. I often drink a little bit throughout the day so I don't get too ravenous. If you don't have a refrigerator at work, maybe you could keep some drinks/snacks in a cooler..... (a good B vitamin also helps).

Remember that the alcoholic voice still wants to be in control, but if we don't feed it, it get weaker and weaker. Hope you have a better day today!
