Sober Saturday Night

This is the first time I have stayed sober on a Saturday night in ages. No wine in the house. I watched Leaving Las Vegas tonight and that was pretty reinforcing. A depressing movie, however.

Started the South Beach diet today and I've got a bit of a headache. Is that carb withdrawal or alcohol withdrawal or both?

It's snowing again here in MA. I'm am very very very tired of snow. I haven't seen the ground in my yard all winter.

Oh well done RG, fantastic. Doesnt it feel great the next day? And its not that hard really? Are you a weekend drinker? I can manage OK midweek and can never get over where its written that I 'must' drink at the weekend and it seems such a hurdle not to. Weather here in Britain really picking up. A real spring day today though still a bit chilly. Snow will be gone soon.

Depriving yourself of carbs at the same time you're giving up alcohol could make it harder. In the early days of AA, folks recommended to newcomers that they keep candy around to help with the cravings, because the carbs are one thing a lot of people miss when they stop drinking.
