Well A Little Better...
Hi everyone,
I think I made myself so sick drinking that that's the only reason I'm doing better. I haven't stopped, my husband told me long ago I didn't have to quit, I just had to control it and with his help, I think I am doing so pretty well. It used to be (meaning like two weeks ago) that I would make up excuses to leave the house or get him out of the house so I could drink, but I drank so much so fast, I would get soooo sick...and couldn't drink, my body, it seems, is invariable weaning me off of beer. Thank GOSH! I still do things every once in a while, but it's not two three times a day like it was.
I know a lot of people are going to disagree with what I've said above, but you know, I thrive on positive reinforcement (not that you need to) and it validates me to keep going. I know not everyone, or hardly anyone, is like me, and everyone deals with things differently, but for right now, I feel pretty good. I look forward to going home, to spending time with my husband, son, and certainly my doggies, I'm not fiending for my next drink, Dean and I are making weekend plans for the second week in a row that we think we'll acutally want to do together...

Keep heading in the right direction and you'll continue to feel better and better. I'm trying the same appoach as you (I think) to keep reducing to a comfortable level and maybe end up with a comfort level of zero.
