138 days no alcohol.
106 days no cocaine.

A quiet day today. Started reading the Recovery Dharma book, I like how it reads. I seem to like all sobriety related books, they all inspire hope in me.

Feeling a little down on myself because I binged on crisps, I am trying to counteract it by skipping my lunchtime and dinnertime diet products, that way Iā€™m still in a calorie deficit and I wonā€™t beat myself up as much. Back on plan from tomorrow to get the other 5st off before my bday in July hopefully :pray:t2::muscle:t2:

For anyone who is struggling, donā€™t give up, never lose hope, and please stay with us :blue_heart:

Well done, April, on keeping your phone on airplane mode and avoiding triggering calls!

Iā€™ve heard some people on here suggest to others that they delete the numbers and block the callers altogetherā€¦ possible for you? Just a thought! Youā€™re just doing so awesome :orange_heart:

I just spoke with mom and she sounds good; I was afraid she was going to be scared. Theyā€™re keeping her overnight and taking really good care of her. Thank you all for being here and sending your love and prayers.

That delay is insane. My delivery was delayed too, so I waited something like 3-4 weeks to have the bike - and my patience was already clearly tested ! Time will fly, no worries. Youā€™ll be able to enjoy it in summer :v:

Day 725: Glad that christmas is almost over. No problems to stay sober, but i realized that my wife is missing to have a glass of good wine together while having the delicious food or a glass of champagne. Next test will be on new years eve. Due to covid we are staying on our own on the holidays. Last year she had company by other family members to enjoy the glass of wine. She accepts it and does not ask questions, but i know that she missed it. Staying strong and sober!

Everyone is asleep (too much food and booze) and as usual Iā€™m sitting watching crap tv and listening to them snore! Every fibre of my being wants to get completely drunk but at the same time thereā€™s something inside saying todayā€™s not the day. And I canā€™t help but smile a bit because despite me having been an alcoholic for over 30 years I was (and still am) designated driver for ā€œnormalā€ drinkers. :grin: And those of you used to reading between the lines know Iā€™m feeling a bit angry too. And I really really want a cigarette but am coming up for 8 months smoke free. So thereā€™s really only one thing for it on Boxing Day - a good old dance to Wham!!! (Dodgy 80ā€™s band for the younger crowd).
