Quick check in........(I did it!)
Over a week since my last post and this will just be a quick one. Checking in on...….
Day 19 of my AF journey today, which means I bloody did it!
7 days in the sun, completely alcohol free.
No wine, No prosecco....only AF cocktails and I had a FANATSTIC time!
Positives:
1) I remember every damn detail - no missing memories - I didn't miss a thing!
2) No hangovers! Enough said.
3) Early (ish) bedtimes and good nights sleep. Up bright and early to enjoy the day.
4) Feeling 100% in control at all times. No embarrassing situations or conversations.
5) I ate less - hopefully this will pay off at fat club.
6) My daughters safety was my number 1 concern - at all times. No guilt!
7) I have returned feeling completely rested. Bingo! That's what a holiday is for?
8) My husband drank less too. He normally matches me glass for glass.
9) We spent so much less. And are back debt free. Savings covered the whole trip :-) Bank manager is happy!
Negatives:
1) Sunshine is my trigger but after day 2 it passed.
2) Hubby was slightly disappointed we didn't have big nights out.
3) Um...…..nothing!
This has been a huge accomplishment for me. I am so proud. Oh and I drove for the first time ever in a foreign country. Would always have been having a vino before, so another skill on my list!
Busy weekend ahead - 50th Birthday tonight then my Mother in Laws 70th tomorrow.
Plan of action:
Tonight - I'm driving - easy peasey and much cheaper than a taxi
Tomorrow - We are staying at the hotel, but everyone is prewarned I'm not drinking so don't offer me any.
Looking forward to another clear headed weekend. I will do a full post on our hols once I've downloaded the pictures off my camera :-)
