I haven't had a drink for two days due to some epiphany I had yesterday morning because I got so hammered on saturday night. Drinking isn't even fun anymore. I don't drink alone but that does not mean I do no find someone to drink with me almost everyday. I basically just get drunk really fast, get nothing accomplished and pass out. I don't even understand why I want to rush to do this again everytime I get the chance. Sometimes I really do have a great time, but most of the time it is a waste of money and time.

Who knows why we do anything which is so obviously bad for us but we are human and make mistakes. What I think you are now realising that drinking is not really enjoyment and that is an awakening which I can relate to. Please know that you are not alone and I will pray for you. Love Mairi.

Oh yep - that is how I drink too. It took a long long time for me to realise that some of the people I considered friends and spent alot of time with were not friends at all, they were just excuses to drink! Dont take as long as I did to figure that out.

Now that you have realised this and what you are doing and where it is leading what do you plan to do? Choices darl, choices. They are all in your hands and they are up to you. Thought about AA? Talking to someone? Maybe just start by seeing your healthcare provider and talking to them about your drinking behaviour (honestly!) and seeing what they advise? What do your family think of your drinking?

You have plenty of choices now, you have awareness, what do you plan to do with it? Keep this up, be miserable or choose to change???

Luvvies and blessings!

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
