Hi Ya'll,

Well, I told you I'd be back to post my progress. Not a drop since Sunday. :D I miss drinking more than I thought I would. The only symptoms are moodiness and headaches. Basically the same feelings I had when I quit cigs but I got over that so I guess I will with drinking too.

I hate that I miss it. That feeling just makes me so vulnerable and weak. It sucks! I'm doing a total body herbal detox/cleanse so that does make me feel better knowing that my organs are getting cleaned out and hopefully my weight will drop in a few months. All those empty calories really took a toll on my once cute figure. ha!

It will be harder once the weekend comes but I'll just take it one day at a time. That's all I can do. Thanks for reading!

Keep up the good work! And keep us posted! Marirose

Good for you! I would really like to quit drinking my "evening" wine. But when I have tried to go without it, I don't sleep good. I guess I am just afraid of the withdrawl symptoms. I do know that I would loose weight if I quit. Alcohol of any kind is loaded with empty calories. Plus it takes away any good nutrients you eat. Let us know how you are doing!

Hey there Dougrobin,

That feeling of missing drinking is your craving and the disease of alcoholism trying to get you at the weak moment. It is good that you are aware of that.

You may want to go to a 12 step meeting and check it out and get some real live support.

It is after the weekend now so I am wondering how you did.....
Post and let us know...Chrissy
