Sounds ridiculous I know.
But basically for the past few years I have binge drank on a weekend. This week as an example - half a bottle of red wine Thursday night - 6 cans of lager Friday night and 6 cans lager Saturday night.
I'm so angry at myself. I look and feel like crap. I'm supposed to be losing weight for my holiday through drink I'm consuming probably two days worth of calories a week extra.
I'm a crap drunk too - get argumentative with DH, slobber around, fall asleep on the sofa then once in bed wake up around 3am feeling dehydrated and crap. I've had all weekend off to catch up with sleep and relaxation and instead I've spent it drunk, hungover and unable to sleep.
I try so hard every week to avoid it but once Friday comes I literally just talk myself into doing it again. I am addicted and it's wrecking my life :-(
The only thing that has ever stopped me was when I smoked - I didn't feel the need for alcohol too and the combination of them both make me nauseous so I stopped drinking.
How bad would it be if me to just pick up a pack of cigarettes for the weekend? Just to break this alcohol habit?
