Me again...
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to let you know, that I'm back at day 1 again.
Well, I went 10 days without a beer...better than the every other day or every 2 days routine.
I'm not going to beat myself up and I'm not going to promise that it will never happen again. I just won't do it today or the next few days.
Cutting back is really my goal anyway.
Just wanted to fill you in on what's going on.
Thanks for reading this and take care.
Lot's and lot's of hugs. :ghug
XOXO

Congrats on NOT beating yourself up!!!
"Just for today, I will not take a drink"........... That's what I've got to tell myself each morning and sometimes throughout the day. If I project on into the future, it makes my head spin and I start getting overwhelmed.
I'm glad you're here and posted this! A great reminder of just how vulnerable we are to this stinkin' disease!
Hugs! :ghug

I think maybe you need to do some hard thinking. To me, if you can't do more than 10 days? Cutting back is probably not an option.
And to be honest? no beer for 10 days is probably not better than every other day or two - not if you're binging.
Sounds to me like you're doing this on the fly.
A good plan never hurts, ya know.
Not beating yourself up is great. Not being honest with yourself and examining exactly where you went wrong would be tragic.
Work out what you want - what you really want - and go for it. If we don't, we're just fooling ourselves.

Hello again,
To tell myself that I will never do it again is overwhelming and unrealistic.
Because I know that each time I "think" I'm not going to do it again...time goes by and it happens again.
Maybe I'm just not ready to give it up completely...so cutting back is the way for me at this point. I'm sorry if I have disappointed anyone, I just wanted to be honest and come in here and let you know how things were going.
