7 days sober!

Hello everyone I am 54 year old gal, from maryland. I have decided to end the madness of what I would call binge drinking, Not in the traditional sense though. My lifestyle is pretty clean, I workout 5 days a week hard and twice a month or so I would blow it all by drinking like a sailor on leave. That one piece of the puzzle missing, WHY DO I DO THIS!?> Feel like crap for days…yes days no longer one day hangover, eat like crap and all in all self sabotage. Ready Liz Hemingway’s Stop Drinking, Start Living really help me but I need you all to keep it going. Feeling great but still have a hankering – ugh! Social life is non existent for now as I can’t do both. Hopefully that will change as time goes on. Any advice is greatly appreicated!

Wow!! I totally can relate to almost every aspect. I’m binge drinker too. I’ll be 33 tomorrow I exercise almost vegan, yet I drink to oblivion. Thought about suicide a few times also because i get so out of control.
