Returned to work tonight after a few days off and I was tempted to go into the shop to buy wine after work . But while I have been off I have been reading a lot and one of the books I read asked you to write a list of reasons you drink and reasons you want to stop . So tonight when the thought crossed my mind I read the list of the reasons I want to stop drinking to myself and I reminded myself of how good I have been feeling lately and it really helped me to not go to the shop .
I just need to keep reminding myself of the reasons I decided to do this .
The list helped me so much tonight .
I have had a great day today , and I think I just felt like I wanted to celebrate .
But instead I will sip my lemonade and be proud of my achievements. Baby steps towards my goals
