Well - I am such a non detail person. I can't even balance my checkbook. So, counting drinks is very difficult for me. I started TSM at the end of May. So, I will have to start my weekly progress in a bit late. I guess I am on week 7. Sunday is the start of the week to me so I will start counting then for week 8. I did get my wine glass out and measure how many ounces went in it. Wow! But I can but down for this week some results.

Week 7 - Poured glass of wine for dinner with DH. Did not do the usual big gulp before I put in on the table so they would both be the same amount. Had a hard time drinking the glass. I didn't finish it. What! That has never happened. Then (as I often do) I had a second glass hidden for after dinner. I got the second glass and looked at it. Poured it down the drain. Either I am sick or this stuff is working. Actually it made me kind of sad. Is that weird?

memore,
It sounds like you are having a good response to the Nal, and no, it isn't weird or unusual to pour out drinks or be a little sad about no longer getting the pleasure you are seeking from alcohol. I've experienced similar things. And as far as counting drinks, while it is useful to track your progress I don't think it is completely necessary. My understanding is that TSM works "behind the scenes" in our brains and if it is going to work it will happen automatically without having to force the issue. Hope you continue to have success.

Good for you memore!! May your success continue!! Newlife
