I've passed the 2 week mark!
badger257, hope you are still with us. You can do it. We are all doing it together.
SueDenim, maybe a cup of tea will help?
Behappy1, hope you are feeling better today.
Trees39, looks like you and I started our new lives on the same day.
Sober369-----agree, I too can NOT stop watching the news!
nexttime---I am avoiding my drinking buddies like the plague. I know from past experience that I will let them persuade me that I can cut down instead of quit, but now I know that I am NOT capable of moderation. It is truly freedom not to have to torture myself with bargaining, etc. about cutting down. So much easier to quit---it just becomes a non issue.
Good luck to us all today.
