Great report!! Congrats on your continued success!! Newlife

Hello,

Just a no-news update. Still AF, still no craving, still very happy and grateful for finding this!

Today is my 3 months AF day

My ultimate goal is still to be able to have a drink like a normal person now and then. Wonder if I will ever be ready to re-introduce nal into my system, as that will be the requirement for drinking. Right now it is just not worth it.

To all of you with ups and downs - keep it up - and keep counting !

Good for you!!

Thanks Newlife, You are so good at cheering us all along Good luck to you too.

Just checking in.

Today is AF day 100 : and on friday I have been on TSM for 5 months. If anyone had said to me a year ago that I would be AF by choice I would not have believed it!

Keep it up and don't loose faith! You will find your Way to make it work!

All the best

That's amazing! Congrats! I'm curious: do you think at all about alcohol anymore or it really doesn't cross your mind?

It crosses my mind, but mostly when other people drink. The feeling is not craving, I just acknowledge that - Hey, I'm not drinking and I'm ok with that! Once in the last two weeks I've had I minor craving: Waitong for the train home after a very long one day business trip to Paris Sat in the station and briefly had that when-I-get-home-I'll-have-a-very-large-glass-of-wine-and-that-will-do-me-very-good-feeling. But then it was gone.

And thanks by the way!

Hello All,

So another month has passed! Still AF - still happy with it.

I had a mouthfull of wine on our aniversary. We had kept a bottle for 10 years for that, and it seemed fanatic not to taste it. So I did, it tasted nice, but I did not want anymore.

I do feel I'm getting to the point of remembering drinking as "not so bad". Time has a way of colouring memories rosy-red. I still don't feel ready to drink with Selincro again, so I'll stay AF for now. Sounds good, but it really is no effort at all these days When I look back it seems unreal that I was drinking 35-40 US units a week.

Oh, another good thing is that my husbands intake of AL has dropped seriously! Appearantly he does not like to drink that much alone, or maybe it was because it became very obvious that all the empty bottles was his and we talked about overdoing. In any case I think he is so much more attractive, when he is sober

Keep up with the nal and carpe diem to string some AF days when the opportunity presents it self - I know that was what did it for me!

All the best
