Sorry about your struggle.

Limit to one or two drink a day? Sounds like it would be much easier to just give up completely. And a lot less painful and healthier.

Why not make this your final stand?

Were you completely honest with her about your drinking history and that you are an alcoholic?

Hi Tonib77, if you are like most of us, 1-2 a day is a waste of time. I agree withthepatman, probably easier just to quit. That's why I'm here.

Why risk that one more drink that will throw your lover over the edge of no return??

Hard to say why your doctor would tell you to limit your drinking; my guess is that she doesn't know much about addiction and alcoholism - but YOU do and that is all that is important.

Protect those vital organs at all cost.
