I am not sure what dietary restrictions youāre on, but a tiny piece of 90+% dark chocolate can save me at times like that.

Checking in day 129! Got up and did some work notes, have a haircut, and then going to get to the gym and store. Looking forward to some downtime later too. It still amazes me that I can do so many little tasks AND still have downtime. So much of that time used to be spent either hungover, worried about getting the things done/looking hungover doing them, or drinking. Itās a good day to be sober, hope every has a wonderful Wednesday!

Day 3. Has been tough have extreme fatigue worse than I ever remember from not drinking. Trying to stay focused on work and study but wondering how I can ever forgive myself for my behaviour is making it hard to take care of me at the same time. Have spoken to my therapist again today.

I just looked through my calendar and I did 20 resets from June through December before I finally did it on January 1. Itās kind of funny, I realize before I never really thought I could do it, I just knew I should. Now I know I can!!

Day 6 sober. This is the first time Iāve truly sought recovery with full resolve; previous times it was a deeply denial-fueled ābreakā. Iām so excited to find out who I am and how awesome life can be, now that Iāve left the grips of the shadow behind me. 6 days is a risky time I realize, but I have never felt so sure of anything.

I really appreciate your suggestion! To be honestā¦ i dont really restrict much. I count my calories and try for a 750 calorie deficit a day and try to increase my protein but thats basically it 
I do try my best to eat healthy foods when i do eat but i do occasionally have some chocolate or sweets etc. As long as they fit into my calories for the day. I usually plan for that. But i do agree with u in that when im in āsearch modeā for something to eat to satisfy me, its just better to have the piece of chocolate, then to keep eating diff things trying to find something that will do the trick, which results in alot of added calories.

drum roll please
And
8 mofo months sugar free
Crazyā¦ its incredible actually. I am pretty sure most of you will be able to relate to the sheer insanity drug addiction makes your sugar intake. Bags and bags and bags of candy when I was in active addiction. Then never mind when you stop drinking and your body starts feinding for sugar. So that ontop of its already terrible feeding habit. What I was left with was legitamate sugar addiction. I would tear my house apart looking for sugar as if I was looking for dope. I would go so far as eat chocolate out of the fucking garbage that I had tried to throw away on myself. Obsessive thoughts, impulsive actions, insanity at its finest.
Now I am 8 months sugar free and I am so grateful. Dealing with this sugar issue has just been one more way I have been able to show self love. I am so grateful for recovery.

Day 4 sober. Just finished day 3 of the IOP. So far so good. The detox med my doc has me tapering this week is helping with the worst of the withdrawal symptoms but makes me SO sleepy. Should work. Might nap.

Day 7
One Week
Since I was gone I think I reached one week only once, and that was because I had some health problems. Once vomited with blood and got endoscopy witch said that my gastritis gone worse. I got upset and tried to eat healthy and not drink. I think I did not drinked 2 weeks, felt better and started drinking again.
So speaking about today, I did not posted for one week, because all the time got very serious FLU. Body temperature even reached 40 C. Felt very sick, but now feeling almost recovered.
Anyway, drinking seriously damaged my immune system, and that is alone - a big reason to stop drinking, though my sobriety reasons always been around spiritual goals, I mean it just canāt be any other way. Itās all about moving forward, seeing whole picture, evolving and not degradation.
So since I already had sparkles of light in my head before, I noticed some interesting sort of synchronicity style message to me. Some random people, and some doctors told me like the same message to me that really stuck, like it was on repeat lately - Take care yourself - Take care yourself - Take care yourself - And I really heard this one and I take it, and I am thankful for another opportunity
to CHANGE.
Even this time I was sick I accept that everything is for reason, and I feel it is given to me as a possibility to stop and rethink everything.
Thanks / and / have a good day!
ā not sure why I always used zzz as my nickname, but now I think I understand - Itās about finally Waking Up!
