Putting out a challenge
another day down.. Not as hard today. Was so busy I was better able to keep my mind off of it. Looking forward to tomorrow at 6:00 PM that marks a whole week. Might not seem like much but its a lot to me.
well good night all.
well good night all.
Jersey...the sleep thing varies from person to person...I've seen a few days to a couple of weeks.
Keep up the good work guys!
Today is day 12 without alcohol for me, but since I smoked a j Monday night I'm counting this as day 2 sober. Still can't sleep more than 6 hours but still feel much better waking up after 5 or 6 hours' sober sleep than I did after drinking 2 bottles of wine and sleeping 9 hours. And I'm a much nicer person during the day when I'm not hung over and craving my first drink of the day.
Day 13 here...Had a major emotional upset yesterday - my BF broke up w/me (not really alcohol related) and usually this would sent me FLYING to the liquor store for vodka, but I didn`t do it this time. Eh, mainly cuz last relapse I found out my tolerance is now very low and I can get wicked hangovers again. I can`t imagine having to deal with this with a pounding headache too! UGH

Day 8 for me.. Have a test today, we have a celebration at work where alcohol will be supplied. Planning on leaving early to lessen the temptation, and not have to answer the questions of why can't you have one with us.
Good job Laraine. That is a tuff one to make it thru?
Well have a great day everyone.

I think I could get into this! I am on day 10,(I still can't believe it) have had a few "tests" as you call it, but just told people I was on a fitness challenge and the booze offerings ceased. Stay strong at that work thing, Wander.
Sorry about the BF, Lorraine, did you see it coming? Good for you for taking care of yourself first.

Brilliant!
Today is my day 5. Feeling surprisingly positive.
I couldn't believe how hard it was to get through day one, I tried repeatedly and failed soooo many times
Some curious symptoms though....
*Note to self - Don't eat ice cream it's way too sweet and makes you thirsty!!!!
