Eat to live don't live to eat!
This weekend we are having people to stay for the entire weekend and its likely they will want alcohol
I find it ok not drinking most of the time and my husband has had the odd pint here and there which doesn't bother me, but if there are 3 people in this house all drinking, and it wouldn't just be one either, it would be 'getting drunk' I'm gonna find myself craving it so much it will be really hard, I might end up having a drink and I don't know if I am strong enough to cope and not join in, I dont want to feel like an outsider if you see what I mean
I kinda told my husband last night that if there is alcohol around this weekend then I'm going out, and I know it will cause arguments, what on earth do I do?
I've thought of telling them that we aren't having alcohol in the house at the moment and if they come then that will be something they will have to adhere to, I think my husband could perhaps be slightly more supportive too and not drink himself, after all, I very rarely drink for the full week that he is on call to support him as he has to drive so cant drink, and its only gonna be another few weeks of abstaining until I reach my goal then we can enjoy a few drinks together.
I've got to ring them at 3pm to make arrangements for them to get here etc, so I have an hour to decide what to say/do, any ideas???
It's driving me mad, the food and alcohol issues at the moment, I wish I could retreat somewhere for a few weeks and not see anyone until this excess weight is gone!!!
Thanks
