drink less

I HATE being drunk, but I keep doing it. I really love drinking so I have a hard time stopping. Im very happy with having 1-3 drink sometimes with dinner but I hate getting really drunk, which I do sometimes with friends. I usually regret it in the morning. I just dont know what else to do when Im with people, and I have a hard time remembering whne to stop once I get going. Im going to try to cut back on getting drunk.

I drank last Saturday night. I poured the last bit of rum down the drain KNOWING that the liquor store would be closed Sunday. I was FINE!! I’ve never had withdrawls, or anything like that. I just felt like that was where I would end up if I kept it up. I did buy some rum yesterday just to relax and watch some movies at home (I didn’t have to work this morning). That’s it! I’m working tonight, so Iw on’t drink. I don’t work tomorrow, but I d o have to be at work at 6 am Sunday. So, I won’t drink tomorrow night….I hope. We will see…...........................

I don’t need to stop, just take a bit of control. The trick would be to drink less at my band rehearsals, I guess. I’m very nervous and can’t play without a drink, and besides… I LIKE to drink. I just don’t have to get wasted every fuckin’ time.

I was a very good girl for the past two days, but I’ve been ill, so maybe that doesn’t really count.

I’m still on the trial with this goal bat atm it looks good, so I’m crossing my fingers for the future :)

My family always drank. My mom still drinks. If she’s off work, she will start about 1 or 2 in the afternoon! I don’t want to be like that! But, I am definitely heading down the same road. I usually don’t start until about 7pm or so. I may have 2 or 3 drinks over a few hours. I may drink half a bottle. Ya’never know. I want to be a better example for my son. And, how am I supposed to go back to school, study, and do homework when I’m drinking??

A friend moved away, which has changed my social life dynamics a bit. I am drinking far less now.

I just enjoy drinking a lot. But I guess I probably “use” it a bit too much. Like, to fog away my problems, to be more social, as a painkiller. Those kind of things.

I just need to keep an eye on me, and keep healthier.

1 whole week without a beer.

I am going to do a bit of a “detox” for the next week or two. No booze, also no junk food, white flour, etc.

Wish me luck!

Ha. this has been a joke. drank every day for the past week, til last night. I need to get a handle on this, can’t be good for ye olde liver, ye olde braine, etc.

Drank 6 beers last night

2 cans with supper and in the sunny yard with my BF.
2 cans at a friend’s place, getting ready to “go out”
2 pints at this fundraiser event we went to.

Hungover a little. Eep. And it is so sunny and warm again…!
