Day 1,101 clean and sober today. It felt really good to be back at work yesterday. I missed the clients very much and a couple co workers lol. I am definitely in the right field and am grateful for my job, I guess I really just needed some time off. Self care is key in my recovery for sure. Have an amazing day everyone, love you guys
Day 216
No booze but I’m in love with sweet stuff. I made my own toffee ice cream. Totally gorgeous alternative to alcohol. That and the cake I treated myself to with my coffee whilst out walking Willow. I’m so bad!!
So proud of you!
Oof, that is a bitter pill to swallow. I hope it heals asap so you can compete.
Hey all, checking in on day 1,099. I hope everybody has a good one!
Happy Father’s Day on day 131!
Hope you fathers out there have a blessed day and that everyone here has has an opportunity to celebrate the fathers is their life.
That is a really nice number! Congrats
Day 1254.
Recently completed my 5mile walk for the 7th day in the row, followed by my punching bag session which I skipped this past Friday. Yesterday when donating blood I was flagged for significant weightloss which was 20lbs!! That was nice and reassuring ever since I started walking over a month ago, consistently the past 2 weeks. I deemed Sundays to be my off day, but I can’t afford to make that decision, I’ll let my body do it for me instead. As long as I can go, I will keep going! 10mi bike ride, and gym later this afternoon!!
Also, happy Fathers Day!!!
Checking in although I decided to stop counting days as I don’t find it helpful anymore.
I had a crazy few weeks back there and have ended up back on my anti-psychotic medication which works well for me but does leave me feeling physically heavy unfortunately. It’s fine so long as I keep moving but first thing in the morning or if I sit down during the day, it can be hard to get back up.
I’m just back from a trip out to a local reuse hub where I picked up some cut flowers and an orchid and my daughter and I both got a coffee.
Checking in sober. Survived and thrived at my first concert sober!
Day 15
Over 2 weeks yayy
I’m making it my goal to get my license in 6months
I decided can’t keep having my wife’s family driving so late at night back from work. The fact that last night was late wasn’t the problem but the rain was. They said it was fine but I felt that it was a problem
One day at a time I’ll do something to move me in that direction
Things happen when your sober that make sobriety worth it
Off to another work day in a few hours
Take care
Who’d you guys see? Anybody good?
I am so sorry to hear you had a bad emotional day, i hope you are feeling better, did you and your wife manage to discuss how you felt after? Lots of moral support to you, and remember, youre allowed a bad mood day, stay strong
Congrats on 2 days! Keep going ODAAT

CONGRATS!!
My check in is pretty cool. I’m now celebrating Father’s day with my dad.
Actually he passed away in 2017
I’m telling you this because he and i settled event that happened in my life and he was sober MOST OF the last year he was alive. That’s because when i went to visit, each time i visited with him he did not drink.
Especially since he knew that i always refused to buy him anything with alcohol
My Dad was/ is called a functioning wet brain alcoholic
He drank so much that if he were to stop drinking he would die of toxic withdrawals
He was even prescribed a hourly shot of beer when he was in jail because he was unable to sober up.
My whole point is he never had a reason to stay sober , until he knew that i stayed sober ON PURPOSE. He was so proud of me for that.
My dad was super nice when he wasn’t drinking
I miss my dad. But i don’t linger on his death but i CELEBRATE his sobriety at the end of his life
Today i have 21 years sober.
Even though his sober time was forced. He was sober for himself
Happy Father’s day to all The Dads out there.
Be happy with today.
Be in love with today
Love with all your heart
Today
Because it’s today that we are sober
Not just for them but for US to be sober and remember this day for all time
BE WELL MY FRIENDS
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TO EVERYONE

Some old 90s R&B artists lol i left early to avoid traffic lol im just different than my old partying days
@nastya_is_fighting I totally understand the heartache of seeing a dead animal. Thank you for taking the time to safely move the pigeon to the grass (a peaceful resting place). Tiramisu – absolutely love this – I do hope you enjoyed!
@catmama23 sorry that you had a spat with your wife and your mood was made sour – glad that you stayed sober and figured out your triggers and worked through the events. What a huge step indeed and not silly at all. I am so very proud of the way you handled this. I do wish you the best of luck with your phone call with your dad today!
@karenkw glad you made it to your mom’s place sober and hangover free. Sounds like an exhausting travel day – I do hope you get to rest and enjoy your time with your mom
@butterflymoonwoman So excited for your cake order. Love that you are able to do something that you love and create it from scratch. Have a great day today celebrating Fathers Day
@Scorpn Thank you my friend - love being on this journey with you!! Love that your little one went roller skating today. I tried to get back to my roller blading (after 20+ years of not doing so) and the sidewalks were nasty – I think I fell like 5 times. The neighborhood kids were so concerned ( ) . Glad she had a good time with it.
@aybee WOW 1500 days of sobriety – congrats on your amazing work!
@catmancam Hope you have a wonderful day celebrating Fathers day and visiting with you niece. I’m glad you were able to figure out your trigger and have a plan for future. My mid August you will have gained a lot more strength and will be able to handle the urges much better.
@brokenwolf Man I’m so sorry that this happened. It can be so devastating. Do rest and do your PT to heal up. Do know that you did do the best you could possibly do and you never know – you may still be able to compete in this tournament. I would want to be more than 60% ready as who know what other damage you could cause in rushing the healing process. You know your body best. Sending healing energies my friend- wishing for a speedy recovery
@soberwalker I do hope you were able to find good parking (not too far to walk) and were able to enjoy the concert
@brian1965uk OOOH homemade toffee ice cream sounds Devine!!! Got my mouth watering and I will now have to get churning here –
