Sober for October?

[slowmotion]

Count me in then, if I'm ever tempted to relapse is there a helpline to call.

It's not a good idea to consider failure before you've even started. Sheer will-power will see you through.

I'm still managing it, though I would have enjoyed a drink last night. And I've managed to reduce if not cut out the amount of choc and cakes I have eaten too! Do I feel any healthier? No!

I do, but we'll see what the consultant says on All Hallows Day.

I feel worse! I've lost about 3 pounds, but I'm tired and grumpy all the time and I am talking about alcohol a lot! Possibly not great during a job interview!!

Probably depends whether they like a drink or not! .... only checks the marks scratched on the walls.... 14 days to go now.... except I don't normally drink on a weekday.... I may make an exception!!!

I'm still sober but I will admit the weekend was hard as I really fancied a glass of wine.

No weight lost.

I'm going slightly over 31st October to the 3rd when I travel to Norfolk for a few days.

I hope my host will have plenty of choice in the house when I arrive

Just be prepared for the massive hangover the next day, your body will have lost any tolerance to booze you had (but not so much for the effect drink has)
After my 2nd operation on the leg I packed up fags and booze for 3 months (and stuck to it pretty well apart from a couple of 'herbal cigarettes' )

After that was up I had a 'normal' night of a G&T, some wine with the dinner and a glass of 'Irish' with a coffee to finish, didn't feel that 'pished' but ................................................................. felt like a bag of 5hit 'tied up with string' in the morning.

I've done a month before for lent, and when pregnant so I'm just expecting to enjoy it and probably have more than normal to make up for the months abstinence!

Maybe you should have given something else up for Lent.

I'm doing ok on the alcohol front, but I fell off the sugar wagon yesterday and succumbed to a chocolate muffin and a slice of cheesecake.
Hey ho.

 

[summerdays]

I'd just like one cos it's the weekend, and I normally mark that by having a drink!
