Golden Rule. Sometimes I just got lazy and didn't take the pill, plus I lost interest in fixing my problem.

Here is the graph I mentioned in the other post

Reminds me of the best between meal diet advice I ever heard: If you're not hungry enough to eat an apple, don't eat. If you're hungry enough to eat an apple, eat an apple.

Week 11

Continue to follow the golden rule.

I've had 1 AF day since I started TSM and I'm not into forcing the issue.

However something is happening, last Sunday was a hugely important pre Xmas family gathering and normally a free reign to drink to excess. I can tell you I was ready for a blow out. What happened is I had four drinks. Unknown.

I've since had a five drink session and had the worse nal-over ever.

I'm now less bothered than ever, Im just following the GR and waiting. The Habit is sorting its self out.

Well survived Christmas, still no AF days but units steady, which is a big deal because normally I've blown out over the Holidays.

Just sticking to the GR and waiting it out.

Good for you thistime, me too just sticking with TSM, the easiest thing on earth IMHO for us Alchy's! (hope no one is upset me calling us that, just joking too)...

Heh, didn't you get sick of that smug "we alcoholics" guff? Most of the traits were just human traits, not "alcoholic" especially.

Sigh. They do a lot of damage.

Dear All

Suddenly I crack open a beer tonight, after 13 weeks. I have no interest in what I'm drinking, there's no buzz, no enjoyment no nothing.

Yes I'm drinking tonight, but forcing it!

For me there's a big decison, stop drinking or stop taking the Nal!

Since the reason I started the Nal was to regain control then the obvious thing is to stop drinking.


Wow, I think I've arrived at the tipping point, watch this space.

Wow, that's a great sign thistime. I have had a cold so not sure if the drinks taste different from my cold, mixing vodka with weird Mexican tonic & agua de mineral instead of soda or alcohol is tasting different to me. The problem with this is that I can drink cheap wine, alcohol etc if there is nothing else to get the buzz so taste is not a deal breaker for me. I do still get drunk as I did have a few Margarita's last night which were really strong and then a few tequila's after and kind of don't remember too much of the night. I really don't think I am at the point of forcing it as my brain still can't stop thinking about alcohol. Hope I can get to where you are soon.
So happy things are progressing for you and will for sure watch for your updated posts!
Nal On!
