Day 1042
The days seem to be creeping since I hit 1000! Still working on not being a “dry drunk”. I seem to have hurt my hip (maybe my work bag which was a shoulder bag, changed it to a pack pack now) so am doing some stretches.

Day 11/12
Checking in. Feelings are a rollercoaster.
Negative selftalk, feeling ashamed, relaxed, anxious, hopeful … Positive selftalk. Wah!
Had some Physio and he just gave me a massage to relax as I asked for. He is very kind and hold his hands still sometimes and I felt the energy.
Dealing with eating and weight loss drama, but I found a super inspiring interview with Shahroo Izadi at “the diary of an ceo”
… With a real changing perspective.
Yes i forgot what the doctor said as I am already thinking about weight loss again.
Bought some thicker paper on my way back to make some notes and put them where I can always read them.
My mind is a mess.
Will lie down for vagus nerve meditation soon.

Second check in
I’m on my way home, the next days will be challenging because 2 coworkers took some days off this and next week 
Good for them, bad for us. But everyone needs those longer weekends to be able to keep on doing the job.
Our AC broke 
Help will arrive tomorrow morning and it hopefully can be fixed then.
My mood is better, no cravings for alcohol.
I’m only hungry and don’t know what to cook 
Going to visit the grocery store to het some ideas 
Take care y’all

Day 491
Busy day today! My mom has already arrived in my province and is currently traveling to her hotel. I am excited to get to see her and spend time with her today! Havent seen her in I think 2 years or so. But first, I am going to work out and then do my counselling phone call appt. Then i will grab coffees for us and meet her at her hotel. Thankfully her hotel is actually within walking distance to my building. Like a 5 min walk. So thats perfect! Im feeling alot of emotion right now. But thats okay! Ill check in later once the day is winding down. Hugs TS fam!

Hey Kelly
Sorry for the low couple of days. I try to take myself out for a walk or do some mediation or treat myself to something. If my body allows it - i try to work out and release the endorphins.
At the same time I make sure to surround myself with laughter. listening to stand up or watching funny movies or scrolling through the meme / joke thread.
i do hope that you get out of your funk soon my friend – doing great at 36 days!

Keep pushing Mike and listen to your body. You just came out of a burning house and you survived. Give yourself some grace, it takes time and persistence

13 days AF. Yesterday the call with my dad went ok but my mom was out golfing so idk how I’m going to build a relationship with her if she never has interest in communicating with me. I’m glad I have therapy tomorrow because I need to process this some more. Today I woke up feeling tired and unwell so I’m going to slow down and just focus on not drinking. I’m grateful to be sober and to keep putting days between myself and that poison.
Keep fighting @nastya_is_fighting - you deserve love and support and I’m rooting for you 
Wishing everyone a day free of addiction

Day 
Actually when holding on workout plan work week flies so fast 
It’s not that I’m saying to go autopilot in life / NO / but usually I see people suffer on Mondays; then Tuesdays hard too; then Wednesday is only a middle )))) no ((( - I think that is a bad attitude and a bad mindset.
To look at a glass as half full not half empty - You must 
Monday - Preparing for work week / trying to implement speed running workout / or sprint ( atm only implemented it once or twice 
)
Tuesday - Back / Chest workout
Wednesday - So good today is freeeee day 
it’s like my little weekend actually
/ Then /
wow LOOK it’s already a
Thursday - Leg / Arms day! this one and few days after this one is hard 
aaaaand 
here goes The Weekend / Friday - take it easy, enjoy the ride
Trying to implement one long run on weekend, usually successful, but skipped a lot lately.
I had an idea to do it on Friday - as Friday is usually the day when I relapse. After workout it is hard fail to relapse, but I just can’t run the next day after leg day / I tried and then regretted badly
Maybe switch Tuesday with Thursday, but then the next few days at work can suffer, because I would not be 100% sharp 
Still there is plenty of room for management /…
Have a good one / AF / Glass half full

Day 1,102 clean and sober today. On lunch break and thought I’d check in. Had an ex client come back to get into treatment today and it was so good to see him alive. He gave me a long hug and said he loved me as he was crying. I said you’re safe now kid. Felt good to see him alive and have another chance at this thing. I absolutely love days like this at my job. I hope everyone is having a really good day so far, love you guys

1043 days no alcohol.
508 days no cocaine.
23 days no vape.
3 days no binge-eating.
Feeling a mixture of sad and angry today. Putting it down to an emotional hangover from spending time with family yesterday.
I’ve done my usual things, meditations, both walks. It’s been a whole year that I’ve been doing my morning routine now, so I think it’s about time to implement a more consistent evening routine. I have one that I have been doing occasionally, but most of the time I’m too tired and can’t fight the need to sleep.
I have another free day tomorrow, but I’ve got a huge questionnaire form to complete which will probably take me a few hours to do.
My nicotine patch fell off around 4pm last Tuesday, then I forgot to apply one before I went into the city for the course thing last Weds, and after that I decided to give up with them, they hadn’t been sticking to me for a while since the warmer weather came, and now it’s been 6 days without them, and I do feel okay. I still have a combo of 3 other products, but it’s another step forward in my nicotine quit process, so I’m happy about that.
