Newlife - your Saturday evening sounded great - well done - I hope you are as pleased with yourself as I am with you ! Great going! Your saying that you SLOWLY drank your glass of wine made me think about my first drink - I do not drink it slowly - maybe I should try and do that .... thanks for the tip!

Hugs, Maggie x

Hikergirl, I am sorry for what you are going through. I have had two Nal-Overs, but they happened toward the beginning of TSM method for me. Both times I think that they were related to the fact that I had not eaten much and drank five or six drinks. I must say that they were so horrid that I think fear of getting another one has kept my numbers down.

Great job, Newlife! Steven, not sure you should be outing someone's movie watching. :D

Ha ha it's ok. I have a seven year old so that is why watch movies such as Hotel Transylvania. Last night we went to the theatre to see Inside Out. Sometimes I even enjoy the kids movies (for example, Despicable Me), but not always. Oh well, that is what being a mother is all about.

Last night I was not as good. For some reason I just felt like drinking and so I did, although it was stretching over many hours. The bad part is that it will mess up my numbers for the week. And I don't feel awful this morning but I do feel it, and I really don't like that now. Well I can certainly see that I have a lot more control than I used to, which is what I wanted when I started this.

Also for the last two nights I just took 25 mg. I want to see if it makes a difference. Will let you know how it goes.

Nal on!! Newlife

I don't have young kids, and I still want to see Inside Out.

Numbers are just numbers, Newlife, and don't totally measure your progress. You are doing great. I hope the 25 mg. works better for you.

I think waiting for DVD is a good choice Maggie. I liked it but it wasn't fantastic. Newlife

Newlife, I know what you mean about how you feel the next day. Sure is energy draining to experience the emotion of personal disappoinment, but I agree with the others that you should give yourself more credit. You are plugging along and not giving up. Conscious awareness is one of the most important steps in getting better and YOU GOT THIS!
