Lucky number 13

Hello all. Just checking in on day 13.

I attribute the fact that i didn't drink last night to SR. By did I come dangerously close. My AV was screaming, pleading, begging, conniving and sweet talking me last night. I had a crappy day, and almost caved in a moment of weakness. Thanks to those who provided that gently nudge and words of support to help me get through it.

Last night was my second time in 13 days that I almost gave in to the beast. I ate a giant bag of Doritos last Friday and last night to help me get past the cravings. I need to find healthier ways to deal with these cravings, but in the meantime I'm just happy that I didn't drink.

Thanks everyone!

Whew! Great Job!!!! I had to chuckle about the Doritos. Last night was a bit tough for me and I ate half a bag of popcorn (big family-size pre-popped bag). Not the healthiest way of dealing with things but sobriety is more important right now.

It is weird how sometimes I feel like it is so easy and other times I realize just how vulnerable I still am.

Keep pushing on. 13 days is SUPER!!!!!!!!! So glad to hear it!!!!!!!!

*hugs*

Gotta watch that AV. It can sell you the Brooklyn Bridge for 10 cents in 5 seconds.
