False sense of security ?
I guess I thought that if I got Friday and Saturday nights out of the way, it would be 'plain sailing'. What a wake up call. Feeling really restless and ..well..irritable I guess you could call it.
NO WAY am I going to act upon any cravings - absolutely not. No way, am I going through withdrawals again for anyone or anything.
Just wanted to get my thoughts out there.
Thanks for being there x

Thanks Hypohondriac I actually just got on the bathroom scales and after all that hot chocolate and icecream yesterday it's showing a gain of 3 lbs, so that's more than enough reason to drink nothing other than black tea/coffee today. It's weird, the craving went as fast as it came.
Never in a million years do I ever want to go through withdrawals again and I've messed about way too much over the past 4 years. This time it's for good xx

That's very normal to feel like that early on Zoe. Maybe use it as a good opportunity for you to deal with and overcome cravings. I got hit with cravings unexpectedly at 6 weeks,had no idea how to handle so drank
ALso, do something you enjoy,relax,treat yourself. If it's chocolate/ice cream you want have it. Anything to stop you drinking. Healthy eating etc can be dealt with when you've got more sober time
Congrats on your 10 days-you're doing great

Thanks Hayley, I will - my stop date would have been my mums bday, so not going to wreck that x
Readyatlast - Yes, I will. As you say, what's a couple of pounds in the grand scheme of things, can soon walk that off later. Just had a long soak in the bath with loads of bubbles. Extra bonus being, my hair takes forever to dry (it's the thick irish variety), so no way could I go out now, even if I wanted to
Thanks again for your support x x x
