NewWonder

day 6; usually pick up a bottle of wine from grocery store on the way home from work. I can hear the plan baking in my head. Not a stressful day. Don't let me stop before I get home!

Get past this, NewWonder, and you'll wake up guilt-free, and without a hangover on Day 7.

Give in and who knows where you'll wake up!

Stick with it, you know it's what you really want - and we're all here to support you

Well done on recognising the thought process and for posting on here.

It's a 'critical decision' moment. Think it through. Where will a bottle of wine take you? Hangover? Regret? Undoing the good work of the past 5 days.

Drive past. Wake up tomorrow with a clear head and clear conscience. You won't regret it. Rooting for you.

There comes a time when we have to make different decision from the ones we've made for years.

You can do this newwonder

Welcome to SR! I'm glad you joined us. Don't stop at the store on the way home. You know where that will lead and you don't want to go there.

There are times I've felt like that. I deal with the plan baking in my head and get my ass home to a cup of tea. I always wake up the next morning feeling wonderful and think "thank God I didn't drink last night". Day at a time. You can do it!

Doesn't a double grande skinny vanilla latte sound much better?

That's exactly where I have been. Good choice of words "baking in your head". Then I use to be on some automatic pilot almost zombee-like standing at the chechout counter buying what I really don't want or need. But, the AV says that "I'm thirsty and this will hit the spot". Maybe tv commercials pursuade that awful decision. Hey, how many times have we all heard "IT'S MILLER TIME"

NewWonder

Made it home without the bottle. read every post along the way. Thanks for the support.

Great Job! I struggled today too, but we both made it!

Great job! I know from first hand experience how hard that was.

Good job! I also seem to face the autopilot craving in those hours right after work.
