[quote=Anonymous]Are two drinks a day is not a lot. However, what you're looking forward to is your ritual and habit. I think another poster suggested changing the drink in your hand during the ritual might help. Instead of having a glass of wine, have a really nice sparkling water with the spritz or some thing.

I was a one drink a night person for many, many years.  Post menopause those empty calories started catching up with me. Like you, I was concerned that there might be a problem because I really looked forward to that one drink, but then (surprisingly) I had no problems stopping. I quickly realized that it was a habit and like all habits they're hard to stop sometimes. I was looking forward to sitting down in front of the TV with a glass of wine after my evening was done. Like that poster suggested, I changed from the glass of wine to a sparkling water and a small piece of chocolate. The new ritual was established. Yes, chocolate is another empty calorie, but it was a small piece and has not hurt me.[/quote]
