[QUOTE="therower, post: 1653023, member: 47983"] [USER=322755]@melliemars[/USER] . A few years ago I was what would be described as a " drinker, " in my eyes not an alcoholic, but I definitely liked a good few drinks if a weekend. After one specific holiday I just decided I didn't want to do it anymore. I decided that my next alcoholic drink would be the next Christmas (5 months) . That Christmas arrived and I really was desperate for that drink, strangely enough, as much as I enjoyed the drink, it wasn't like it used to be. The craving and previous sensations were gone. I enjoyed the drink but found it easy to stop after just a few glasses and after a few days. I now only have a drink twice a year, summer holiday and Christmas. I enjoy it but can't go crazy, it's a different type of pleasure nowadays. You may find that you will find it similar with food. The treats, carbs will seem a good idea but something inside will make there appeal different. A few carbs and your body will say ..... that's enough, I'm happy .........let's get back to feeling normal and in control. This is how it was and is for me with regard to alcohol. Happy birthday for Boxing Day. [/QUOTE]
