Hi all
Feeling some changes in my routine. I walked into a liquor store and didn't buy any booze the other day. Also left some wine in a bottle and went to bed.

Week 1: 26.5 units - 2 AF - Craving level avg. per day 2.57/10
Week 2: 27 units - 2 AF - Craving level avg. per day 4.4/10
Week 3: 21 units - 3 AF - Craving level avg. per day 4.14/10

Week 1: 26.5 units - 2 AF - Craving level avg. per day 2.57/10
Week 2: 27 units - 2 AF - Craving level avg. per day 4.4/10
Week 3: 21 units - 3 AF - Craving level avg. per day 4.14/10
Week 4: 22.5 units - 3 AF - Craving level avg. per day 4.57/10

Two daily charts with trend-lines. the second omits AF days in order to track any reduction/increase in per-session drinks.

You can get an average per session number by using the AVERAGEIF function, eg: Cell D8=AVERAGEIF(B2:B8,">0")

That will omit the AF days. The red line is a weekly average per session series. Just a thought. -E

Thanks Loop! I knew there was a better way, but too lazy to think about it.

you're doing good. looks like you cut your drinking by at least 1/ day. from looking at your chart that is almost 25%. good on ya. correct me if I am looking at it wrong please, cuz I wanna know.

Avg. drinks per day 3.68

About a 1/4 unit uptick in daily avg. consumption this week.

Roxy is diligent about taking her Nal and believes that she is on her way to being cured completely. She does not obsess about alcohol anymore the way she used to. There seems to be a shift occurring even if her avg. per session is still too high.

Ok, obviously a big spike. There were some triggers in there like holidays and some other stuff. Obsession with alcohol is still way down, if not gone. AF days are no big deal and not forced, just a choice. Definitely feel like the alcohol is the one hanging on for dear life at this point. Per session avg. still a problem, hoping for better on this level.

Avg. drinks per session continue to be a problem. Overall, things are progressing about as expected. Spike up in drinks around holidays, triggers still present but cravings are not unmanageable. 4 AF days this week (first time), but two 10+ unit days still loom.

Weekly totals.
