up to know it has been easy, but i know that it is tricky. The urge comes often but luckily it lasts only a minute. I haven't failed yet. It is almost 2 months now.
Not drinking is easy, but there the motivation is to support a friend that is fighting it off, so it is really not a problem to say no. The tea stuff gives me similar sensations to those I get from drinking wine. I mean, not the high or the gentle softening, but the search and definition of the elements. It helps.
Eating is a daily struggle. I am in the stage where I cook, not only nutrients, but food to be enjoyed. I am trying to find flavor without using much fat and very little spices because of little daughter (I try to cook the same meal for all the family so that we can all sit together happily). Luckily I have a very good teacher, that keeps giving me hints, suggestions and support.
