Josh- that's always been an issue for me because I liked to have a nice glass of wine or two with dinner, but I also know that if I start there then next I'll make it ok to drink if I have company over, and then if I'm with the girls out, etc.... It's hard not to drink like normal people can, but we can't. I order sparkling water and once I get it and start drinking I'm good. There is a sense of accomplishment and I feel good by the time dinner is over. It's not what I really want, but it's my reality and it's bothering me less and less as time goes by! So it's on to the next hurdle!
