* Checking in daily to help maintain focus

Checking into day 14. It was my first day back into the gym for a while. Only did some cardio on the treadmill and bike machine but got in about 4 miles on the bike and 2 miles on the treadmill. Ate extremely healthy as well. I made a weight goal of 135 lbs (currently at 171). I intend to follow through on my commitments. Stay sober everyone and keep as positive as possible. Mindset is everything!

Thank you everyone for the kind words and support I could not have done this by myself. Meetings are the foundation to my success in recovery.

Day 80. Feeling good, have been in lots of triggering situations lately, including yesterday when I popped round my brothers on the off chance after work, he was there with one of my old friends watching a movie, drinking and doing cocaine.

I stayed an hour or so, had only some mild temptation and left happy.

Day 328 :coffee:
A week to go and then I have 11 months in my pocket. Moving forward to the 1 year mark!
Exited to be were I am now.
Was sober for 5 years and then relapsed. Drank a period of 1,5 year and quit. Relapsed after a few weeks but got right back on the horse.
And look were I’m today: day 328 :grin:
One day at a time, every day of it!
GO GET IT! :facepunch:

Day 65. Having coffee on the morning after the festival. It’s amazing how fresh I look (and feel) compared to 99% of the folks here. As well as how I felt and looked on previous occasions. Have a great sober day or night all!

Day 169. Ive not been checking in recently (not sure why). Things are good and ive been trying to focus on life improvements outside of sobriety. New routine is going well, early mornings, plenty of exercise. Its not been easy and I still have a lot to learn about what is right for me. I do know for sure that non of this would be possible if I were still drinking, and Im grateful for that.

I hope you are all doing brilliantly, and for those that have celebrated milestones that I have missed, congratulations!!

Have a great day folks :+1:

Day 10… Officially double digits.
Also officially starting to feel the numb bits coming back.
Cannot get to sleep at night or lay in in the mornings. And all the root causes of my using are starting to come up from the depths of me.

Hope other people are feeling better

Love :heart:

It’s day 7 for me. I feel tired and a little drained but sober and plan to stay that way. Normally I would spend the beginning of my days making arrangements to get my DOC but lately my mornings have been spent being sober and productive. The anxiety of trying to find pills has sort of disappeared and that’s huge. I use being tired and having low energy as an excuse to NEED a pick me up but no more!!! Feeling hopeful and positive :grinning: Have a fabulous Sunday everyone!!!
