Red Wine evening addiction
For many years now, I have been in the habit of getting my daily routine done, dinner, dishes, laundry, kids to bed (they are grown now)... Around 9pm each night I always had and still do, 2 or 3 glasses of dry red wine... I looked forward to this each evening, because it would totally relax me and help me unwind, and give me a little buzz, but most of all it would help me get my overactive worried mind and butt into bed, (made me sleepy)
Over the years I have continued this way of life. I still drink 2 or 3 glasses a night. I want to do the lo- carb diet, but the only reason I fail is because of the cravings for my habit. It is very difficult to give up this thing that I enjoy so much, I am now going through peri-menopause and have gained a lot of weight in the last few years, taking it off now is more difficult than ever!
I wish I could get past the desire and habit of having the wine! Any one have any inspiration? My resolve to just stop is strong all day, but as evening approaches I begin to look forward to the feeling of sitting down with a book and my wine, and relaxing after a long day of work. I really like it! Help!!
