Well, I just passed the 1 year mark of nonstop TSM, along with Cheeto, Badger, Nigil and others (Maggie1929 soon enough :) ).........and life goes on. I have decided to start tracking again, and focus on breaking the mindless habit side of the equation. According to the science I have a year of extinction under my belt, and that's a good thing, so now it's time to focus on progress and moving forward. In addition to tracking, I'm attending MM meetings again and setting goals for myself. My immediate short-term goal is 20 drinks or less a week, always drinking with food, and a minimum of 1 AF per week.

That sounds great all41. 20 per week is within the safe zone. It's wonderful to hear of your success.

What is MM?

Sounding good All41 - I do understand the need to break the mindless habit bit ! I am trying to be more aware of it too - having had an AF day today after way too long without one - and feeling so much better for it!

Hugs, Maggie x

MM is an organization called Moderation Management. Very sensible and secular and is a good fit with TSM (JMHO). At Louis has an active F2F group that meets twice a month.

Thanks for the info All41 - but do not like the thought of driving into St Louis at night any more ! I get up so early that am usually in bed by 8-9 anyway!

Hugs, Maggie x

Oh sorry Maggie I was posting the MM info for Ocean. He'd asked what it was back at the beginning, I was just late in responding. But If you ever decide you'd like to go let me know!

So far so good this week, stopped without difficulty at .5 2.8 2.5 and last night 1.7

Sleeping well and feeling pretty clear headed :)
