wine is tough to give up. alcohol, in general, during football season is tough to give up. I used to allow myself one day to drink what i wanted but it made losing so much harder and slower that I don't do that anymore..i wonder if you any of yor workout days are harder than the others?? have a drink that day..it might even itself out??? haaa..i don't know. if you come up with a solution, please advise!!!
