[quote=Anonymous]Same, here OP!  I always want a glass of white wine while cooking dinner, and somehow one glass turns into three more often than not.  I don't think it's a dependence thing so much as it's a habit thing.  I finally figured out that I was actually thirsty, and started drinking large glasses of water (sometimes sparkling) first thing upon arriving at home and while making dinner, and moving wine o'clock later and later into the evening.  I go to bed early by nature -- wine or no wine -- so not pouring a glass until DS is in the bath (DH does bath) at 7:30, plus being hydrated with water, helped me cut back significantly.  The other thing that really helped was just making a point not to keep as much wine in the house.  If I don't have it available, I can't drink it and I eventually just move on from the wish for wine to other things.  I still almost always want that glass or three of wine every night, but I really feel a lot better now that I'm only drinking a glass or two a couple of nights a week.[/quote]
