150/PPE

Posted by: joymanning In: Personal Prohibition Experiment.| Weigh In

20 days down/11 days to go

So, if you checked in last night, you know I had one glass of wine with dinner. I just got tired of feeling deprived and I sort of felt like I was being really inflexible. So I made a one-glass exception for the sake of my sanity and now I’m back to abstaining for the rest of the month.

I feel somewhat disappointment with myself, but I can live with it. It’s hard to tell whether it affected my sleep since the phone rang in the middle of the night and that disturbed my sleep.

Tomorrow will be my week 3 wrap up; I will think more about all this then. For now, I’ve got a busy day ahead to tackle.

Feeling disappointed in yourself isn’t going to do you any good. You’re doing the exact right thing to move on and continue on … its not like you’re going to give up drinking entirely in the end anyway, so what’s one glass over 31 days? Negligible if you ask me. You’re still doing fantastic, and that’s what matters.

Instead of fixating on the glass of wine, maybe dig deeper into why you feel disappointed with yourself and if that’s a pattern you have elsewhere.

I find the more inflexible I am about anything, the worse I feel about myself.

Don’t feel disappointed. You didn’t gain any weight, and i doubt having one glass really affected the experiment.
