did dry Jan dropped off the wagon Thursday and Friday . I thought I would be beating myself up for doing it but I’m not, I realised I wasn’t missing anything so I’m back on the wagon going to take a big walk today and back to happy healthy life . 😘

What was the thought process when you took the 1st drink on Thursday? When my councelor challenged me to be sober for a month, I did it but on the 32nd day, there was some body ache very well could have been resolved with a tylanol, but my alcoholic mind said beer would fix it. Back again started drinking regularly.

I had gone out with my in-laws not seen them over Xmas as I was out having a meal I had a glass of wine. But that has lead to Friday and Saturday starting a fresh Monday no alcohol today either. I need to lose some weight and move more also . 😀

I meant what was going through your mind when you ordered a glass of wine? Was there any deliberation? Or just a blind spot, you just ordered it? It will help you bring awareness. Also my question is, is your end goal to stay stopped?

I thought it was to stay stopped but I think now to just cut down to recommended 14 units or less a week.

Glad you’re back on the wagon. Trying to control my drinking was torture for me. But it was necessary. Because otherwise I wouldn’t have eventually stopped.
