Day 258, over slept a little this morning, a little depressed after leaving my girls. But Iām up now, gonna hit the gym. One thing I need to start doing is getting my diet in check, Iām packing on alot of weight. Itās not that I care about how I look but more the fact that I need to be healthy. So gonna try limiting sugar and carbs. Will see how I do. Iām grateful I can make these choices. Grateful I am able to get up and shower myself, grateful I can hit the gym. Much love

Congratulations on your 5 days Clay. I like to celebrate with pedicures and massages. Early on maybe some delicious gelato or a nice fresh baked baguette with some sparkling water. Or a nice new hoodie. Itās nice to find new ways to reward ourselves for hard work.

39 days today! Got a lot on the plate this week, itās tryout week for baseball starting this weekend and grad school homework is piling up but Iām working one day at a time and staying focused. Had a couple NA drinks this weekend when family came over this weekend, they actually werenāt super appetizing to me but they kept me from partaking in the wine everyone else drank and I celebrated the small victory to myself as I had some small cravings. The more time I spend in sobriety the more I wonder how I ever drank so much because now that itās way out of my system my stomach gets full very easily lol. I donāt know how I used to drink heavy beers and whiskey regularly 
keep calm and stay strong sober family!

@Dan.h84 congrats on 50 days
@Tomek sending strength and hope
@Planipennia thank you for noticing 
it feels good to have some progress 
917 days no alcohol.
382 days no cocaine.
5 days no crisps (chips 
).
4 days no vape.
1 day no binge-eating.
So last night I did binge, but I only bought fruit, so Iāve separated crisps to keep a count going for those, since thatās the main addiction and problem, but I think the amount of fruit I ate, and the way I ate it, would be considered a binge, so I started a new counter to keep track of that. Iām not beating myself up over it, because I can recognise my progress.
Today Iāve done another load of washing, been to my hometown to collect my meds, been for 2 walks, meditated, and now Iām here in candlelight.
I am on the last couple of episodes of each of the 3 shows Iām watching, so Iām excited to see how those all end.
Overall, a peaceful start to the week. Oh, and I donāt need my big puffer coat for my walks now, today I wore just a thin hoody, it was so much better not feeling like I was going to pass out.

Day 30.
Itās been a long long day. Had to deal with some beaurocratic bullshit and things were this close of going really really bad for me. I nearly walked away in defeat. But thenā¦ I walked back in, made my point and got what I wanted. Sorry for the vaguenessā¦ But trust me, it was a beautiful moment of triumph! Had I been not been sober I wouldnāt have gotten these papers sorted today. I would have definitely walked away and cried into a bottle.

Day 37. Had a panic attack and broke down ugly crying during group this morning. I couldnāt breathe and it was awful. Doc did say I could go back up on my medicine. Made it home okay and pulled myself together. First day back at work this afternoon but they arenāt really giving me work yet. Letting me go through my emails and get my brain organized. So itās not too bad. Iām just trying to do 4 hours a day. I still feel horrible but not actively panicking. It feels close. Iām so fucking tired of this.

Day 48, getting ready for bed after an intense day of work and gym, and my girlfriend still suffering from pain without any doctor getting behind whatās wrong. I wish I could shoulder some of her pain, but at least I do my best to support her. Tomorrow will be my first in this year and currently last meeting with my counselor, as I currently can do pretty well on my own. But itās really nice to have this group here to share and learn experiences with you.
To all of you struggling today: you can do it and we think of you. Have a good and sober rest of the day, wherever you are.

Day 86. I have noticed I have been comfort eating to cope with stress, but I have also been working out-hard. I am in therapy, too. So I guess the eating is one negative in a pile of positive and I am sober. So thatās good!
