drink alcohol in moderation (read all 10 entries…)
5 months 21 months ago

I didn’t drink for the whole month of March. I’m shocked and proud! I don’t miss it anymore. When my man and I go out to eat where they serve alcohol, I briefly think “Do I want a drink? No, it doesn’t even sound good.” We went to Red Robin last weekend and I was looking at the margaritas on the menu and then I thought about my acid reflux and it wouldn’t have been worth the discomfort…or the extra calories.

I don't drink

anymore because of the medication I’m on and the big thing I’ve noticed is that I get up early in the mornings. The other thing I realise is that I don’t miss alcohol per se, if I miss anything it’s the social side of alcohol. And there are other ways to socialise with friends. One work colleague asked if I was pregnant which I thought was weird – like it could be the only possible explanation for not drinking!

PM,

I keep meaning to ask you whether you’ve tried the nasal sprays for your migraines?
I get them bad too – for many different reasons. Worst ones come on day 3 of my period. I’ve also tried everything. I’ve recently discovered one kind of pain relief tablet which usually helps. Gosh can’t remember the brand off hand but it has a calmative effect. I was also recently prescribed a nasal spray but only used it once so far but it seemed to help straight away. $15 a pop though.

I've noticed

that my stomach isn’t as bloated all the time, which is nice. I got the pregnant question from a few coworkers too. They don’t understand until I explain I stopped for health reasons.

Medical reasons

is a good way of putting it. Sometimes people think it’s something religious, as well as pregnancy.
