Summary: Now I need the Easyweigh book!!!!!!!!
Comment: Picked up this book from the library at the beginning of December, being a bit concerned about another boozy Christmas/New Year looming. It's the 29th December, I haven't had a drink all over Christmas and there's an opened bottle in the fridge...... Unbelievable! I've purchased my own copy from Amazon as 'back up'. Must have saved myself a lot of money plus have some grateful friends who I've taxi'd about.. Only problem now I need the Easy Weigh book!! To be fair, I'd have needed that anyway.. Will buy now and see how I get one - bit concerned as I'm a veggie and not all books suit. Anyway so far so good with the drinking.......

Summary: This book changed my life
Comment: I want to start by saying to the people who are looking for this book to magically solve their drinking problems....it won't. You have to do the work! If you read the book and don't follow the instructions, and end the book hoping it will cure you..... it won't. Alan VERY CLEARLY gives instructions and VERY CLEARLY tells you that you MUST follow them. If you don't agree with what he says, this book is simply not for you.
My story.....I am a 38 year old female who has been drinking heavily for 15 years. As my drinking got worse I was drinking a bottle of red wine or more every night. At the weekends 2 a night, sometimes 3. My life was just devastated. I was an emotional wreck. Totally crippled with guilt about my drinking, I felt disgusting. My confidence was shattered. I didn't visit people because it meant I couldn't drink so I became isolated from friends and family. I used to wake every morning feeling so very bad. My eyes red and sore. My head foggy and my concentration gone. My stomach sick and my energy gone. My balance was going and I often stumbled and bumped into things. I often had a drink to try and make me feel better. It was a vicious circle I could not see a way out of. I knew I had to stop, for my children and for me. I couldn't tell anyone how bad it was because they would try to make me stop and the thought of life without drink terrified me. How empty it would be. What would be the point. I would hate life. Wouldn't be able to enjoy it without a drink. Looking back I think 'What the hell is that all about?' I started off around 3 months before I bought the book saying the affirmation ' I am alcohol free' Over and over, day and night, even when I was gulping down the poison. I bought the book. I read it, following the instructions, feeling so nervous and so frightened of what was to come. I got to the important part and thought 'no, I don't feel that I fully understand'. I went back, as instructed and read again until I did and then I took my final drink, still a little unsure but I was going to just do it. I was terrified I would fail. This was my last chance. I stopped. I still didn't tell ANYONE in case I started drinking again. Week after week the fear gripped me. I had nightmares for about 3 months where I had an empty glass in my hand and I had finished a glass of wine. How could I go back now, I had failed. Then waking up and thinking. Wow, that's not going to happen. I will never drink again. I worried that if I was offered a drink I would forget that I had stopped and screw it all up. It didn't happen. Every time the thought of a drink came into my head I acknowledged it, I didn't run from it, I thought to myself 'is that what I want to go back to?' NO WAY! I said with a big smile on my face and such a fantastic feeling inside. I'M FREE. I'M FREE. MY LIFE STARTS HERE. I haven't had a drink in over a year and I am so grateful for this book. I will never look back. I WILL NEVER DRINK AGAIN! Isn't that so good? The fear will be there.....it will be overwhelming.....just go with it.......you will soon see that the fear is nothing....you are so much more than that stupid little monster. You will see that the fear comes to NOTHING. And life......life still has it's ups and downs but your confidence and pride and sense of achievement will do more for you than any glass of poison ever could. I really hope this helps someone else.

Summary: It worked for me.
Comment: There are quite a few reviews here that express dissapointment when they discover this book is not really about cutting down it is about quitting. However if you read the book carefully you will soon realise there is no other option. If you are considering buying this book then you are probably concerned about your drinking. All I can say is it worked for me. I was a heavy (and getting heavier) drinker for 20 years. I was unhappy with the situation. This book gave me the tools and confidence to knock it on the head. Every night I go to bed thrilled that I won't wake up with a hangover and regret the night before. My husband still drinks. To be honest I just look at what it does to him and think god - why did I ever do that to myself. I go to parties where everyone is drinking and I have a great time. I really don't sit there envying the drinkers. Oh, and I have saved plenty of money to spend on other things - like DVDs that I can stay awake all the way through cos I'm not watching them in a semi-stupor etc etc. I can clearly remember sitting here reading the reviews of this book myself wondering if reading one book could make a difference. Yes it can. But it is about stopping not cutting down. And what is so wrong with that? You get your life back.

Summary: It works.
Comment: I bought the book after too many times waking up thinking "I must cut down" with vague memories of the night before which often included passing out on the sofa. I bought the book on amazon after reading reviews. I read it all and followed the instructions and it works. I am a non-drinker with no desire to drink at all. I am happier and more energetic and I get on with things without the thought of when my first drink will be at the back of my mind. Its a strange feeling at the moment, I stay up a lot later and have more interest and enthusiasm but don't seem to know where to direct it. I couldn' drink alcohol now even if I wanted to so only read this book if you are prepared to accept the life changing consequences. It does work!

Summary: it works
Comment: after drinking for 35 years (AGE 16 TO AGE 51) I did not consider myself an alcoholic. hangovers, arguments, violence , crazy decisions were never enough to make me quit. one sunday morning i woke up to find i had done something mad. i knew something had to change. i started to read this book as a reluctant sceptic. i finished it with a sense of joy and purpose. this book does not lecture , judge or send you on a guilt trip.it opens your eyes. my only regret is that i did not read it when i was about 20. alan carr probably saved my life. i salute him
