While I haven't gone a full 10 days with zero alcohol, I'm happy in the fact that I only drank to point of a buzz one night out of 10 (had 4 drinks total at a social event), and only one other evening that I had 1 glass of wine and was able to stop at only 1.
I'm also very happy that my calories have been nicely controlled for 10 days with no binging.
Last night my husband told me he knows he needs to be following my example and start doing what I'm doing if he wants to see more results with his running. He said "you're putting on a clinic to show how shits done". I was flattered, but honestly all I could think was "You have no idea what I'm doing... you would never be able to do it like me."
He would never be able to improve his performance on my calories. Guys just need more, especially when they are as active as him.
But it would be good if he stopped drinking so much. Since I started 10 days ago he has consistantly had at least 6 beers a night, and as much as 12 some nights.
At first it was hard for me to see him drinking when I was trying not to. But now... it's almost like I feel I'm better than him, more superior, by being able to say 'no'. It's become a kind of competition for me. If he is able to stop drinking too will I be able to keep this up?
I believe so.
Regardless of that feeling, I do really wish he'd stop drinking as much as he is. I do love him, and want him to live a long life with me.
