I'm Currently Feeling:  | I miss vodka....
I had a friend tell me how much she craved a beer until she had part of one and she never wanted another. I thought it might work for me too. Oh No! Exact opposite effect. I took half a shot of vodka and my mouth has been watering since. |

| It's hard - I know.
Have you tried alcohol-free beer? it's really helping me through wanting a nice cold lager. I've been through the whole range. Try Becks or Cobra (if you're really lucky you might find Erdinger which you can't tell from the real thing)- they really are good - I promise! And it's quite funny seeing people's disgused looks cos they think you're being irresponsible. 
You should find something decent in the supermarket... enjoy | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I used to drink all the time and gave it up as soon as I found out I was pregnant and haven't missed it all since. It's so weird. I was at a wedding a couple of weeks ago and totally didn't mind I couldn't drink. Last week everyone drank on my birthday bar me and I didn't mind then either. I'm really surprising myself!! |

But i fell in love, and stopped going out, haha.
So i'm coping ok  |
