      :welcome: Arien,

      So glad you are here. It is a great place to be for support. Hang in there. We are all in the same boat. Just trying to reach the same goal - gettin well, as you say. 6 grand kids, WOW, lucky you. A great reason to stay around! Come often!

      Hugs, :l

          Hi Ariel why not save some of the beer money to get your teeth fixed....The diet stuff is free with a healthy diet and exercise.

          Seriously i lost teeth donkeys years ago and hated the fact i had a partial denture...HOWEVER i got a good dentist and he is into dental implants..so i had the three crucial ones done...cost several thousand..but i now have lovely teeth that dont come out!!!!sorted crowns , veneers etc and the transformation is amazing..i had surgery bone grafts the lot...as lost the teeth 25 yrs ago!!!

          i know i am lucky as i could afford it..dont know your situation financially..but maybe you could save some beer money towards teeth, hair cut, new clothes ,whatever makes you feel more confident.i must have spent thousand son booze ove rthe years!!!


          good luck with your goals... and the "beer Belly"...Regards Cassy

                Sounds like you won't drink today because that's what you told yourself. Say the same tomorrow! Gald you found us.

                  Hi Arien,
                  What a great thread name. Very motivational. Welcome and glad you found us. I agree with Didit, tell yourself the same thing tomorrow. Keep posting here and reading. You will find a lot of support and it works if you put your mind to it!

                  Good luck

                    You didnt bore me a bit. Everything you said is fixable. Teeth can be replaced, a wine belly can be lost, time with the Grandkids can be had.

                    If those are what you want, then make everyday alcohol free. You can do that, i have been sober for almost 2 weeks, i have already lost 11 pounds and feel SOOOOOOOO much better. Trust me, i was a 7 day a week drunk, passed out every nite. YOU CAN DO THIS, oreder the book here on line and down load it and print it from your copier, that will be a start.

                    God bless you and good luck
                    Its strange being sober; huh, so this is how normal people are :H

                        Hi Arian, welcome. Related to your post, it was when I started falling down stairs etc and really damaging myself that I knew enough was enough. I am not going to drink today either...we can stay strong together, no-one is ever alone here.

                            Welcome Arien

                            we are about the same age... so I know where you are coming from.
                            Reached a point with all the drinking that it just didnt seem bothering with all those other details in life - BUT - since I managed to string some AF days together my focus and determination to improve things in my life has bounced back with a vengance.

                            Stick around here and I am sure you will find strength and encouragment.
                            Stay clean & sober and enjoy those grandchildren, you have a lot to look forward to.
                            Best wishes
