Still going….This was the point I relapsed back in 2016. Made it seven months before I figured I was so called “cured” and could handle drinking moderately. Guess I enjoyed it to much back then when bingeing on weekends became daily drinking ☹️
Don’t plan to see those days ever again. Onwards to further milestones and that major 1 YEAR mark. One day at a time 😐 |

Congratulations. It's hard work, but worth it. Glad you're determined not to relapse again. Keep it up one day at a time.

It holds no power over me anymore and that is one helluva great feeling. Keep doing what you're doing. I assume you have a sponsor or some other support person. Listen to them.

@Introvrtd1
How are you doing? Still sober I hope. The sugar crush should have subsided by now, I hope. Sobriety is hard. Death is even worse. That thought helped me get sober. __________________ You're only given one little spark of madness.

Sounds like you're doing good. It's normal to gain some weight because your metabolism gets confused I think. It took me about 4 months at the gym 3 times a week to get back my normal weight.

223 Days…Recovery has been really slow, but still moving forward. Still walking….10,000 steps a day minimum but I usually get in around 12-14,000. Mostly finish up after work.
Sleep still not perfect but I’ll get some good nights once in a while. Feel like I have to keep moving so the nervous energy doesn’t set in. Things would be better once I get control of these sugar binges. Even with the low to no sugar foods I eat, I tend to overindulge. Sigh…. 😩 Better than drinking I guess 😞 |

Been getting these weird insomnia nights where I wake up in the wee hours of the night the past couple days….
Also felt a bit anxious on my drives to work. Ugh….Glad its been nothing like the days past when I felt like crap the morning after a heavy binger. ☹️ 230 days |
