Sugar cravings are normal. It’s just a replacement for your doc (drug of choice).
It’s usual a temporary thing and when you have more sober days you can tackle that. For now I would leave it be because it helps you a bit with the cravings 
Congratulations with the double digits milestone!

My body is relaxed if it gets enough protein (from mixed resources). Not a sugar girl at all. It’s making me mentally crazy.

*Day 2144 
It was fun seeing @Mno again. We had lunch at one of my favorite places in town and did a guided city tour. We had a retired school teacher as a guide… 
What should I say
To many words, to many numbers, to much info and we didn’t move much! The website said we should see 6 items in the city, but we only managed to do 3 of them, then we where out of time.
And yes…as promished… it rained a lot!
Today? Work.
Have a good day ore night all

It was great fun meeting, Claudia. Will repeat. The guided tour by Jan… Well it was an experience 
. Will have to come back to see some more of your beautiful town. And you of course.
Going to another pretty town this morning, to do more emdr. A little bit apprehensive about it. But will make do. It’s for a good cause. One day at a time. Have as good a day as you can all. Make it sober and clean or nothing will come of it. I will. Love.

@Ncgolfer I was surprised to learn how much sugar’s in alcohol. I’d always viewed sugar as poison(like alcohol wasn’t 
), but was apparently consuming massive amounts for years. When I quit and started having intense cravings for it, I started eating fruit. ALOT of fruit. I figured at least it was a natural form of sugar, and it still did the trick. Plus has lots of vitamins 
It took a couple months, but evened out in the end

Slept great and woke up energized! Had time to dye my hair and run errands before work. Then, the first day of the Invite: Stag night. I was stationed upstairs to hold down regular dinner service. It annoyed me at first bc it’s such a good night for easy tips, but then it rained and a thick humidity followed. I had to run up and down the stairs outside a few times, and breathing in the gelatinous air absolutely drained me. At that point I was so grateful to be working inside with AC 
Even still, I was sweating just standing around 
Dinner finished early so I volunteered to stay and help prep for tomorrow. I left around 10:30 and there were still 50 guys drinking! Grateful again I wasn’t assigned to it and had to stay til the end. My poor coworkers 
Felt fine when I got home instead of exhausted. Nice start to this weekend. Still can’t wait til it’s over tho Hope you all have a good weekend

8 months today. Didn’t think much of it as a milestone, until I had a little feeling of pride in myself while cooking dinner.
Got to the gym in the morning. Then home walked the dogs and out to sort things for dinner.
Picked up the kids from school and decided to skip their training for this afternoon. Now the wife has been told they probably don’t need her for nightshift tonight so she’ll get to stay home too.
Back to work for me tomorrow. Glad I’ll be showing up clear headed and in a good mood

I’m here, I’m alive I’m sober and I’m happy.
Day 156
I love this sunny weather we’re having.
Can’t wait for those sunny fall days where everything is colorful apple pie and pumpkin spiced flavored either.
The only thing I don’t like is that it’s getting darker and after fall comes an endless winter.
All of that is far away from today so I’m going to enjoy this summer while I can.
12 y/o is watching Christmas movies already, or maybe I should say still, from Christmas in July. 
That’s all Folks 
Wishing y’all a wonderful day.

Today is all about train travels. I am currently on the train to Berlin and will be changing trains there for Wrocław at about noon. I’ve packed food and media and am very excited to see my home town soon.
Whatever the day: Let’s stay in peace, kindness and freedom friends

It’s normal in the beginning, just let it be for now. If you try to do to much at once it’ll be just that, to much to handle.
It’s not a big deal and it usually adjust itself after a while.

@Juli1 please push that block button girl. You are doing fantastic in your journey and have a great new mindset. This guy can offer you nothing and can take so much away. Just not worth it
@MrFantastik way to go with 8 months. It is a great milestone and glad you are feeling some pride. Keep it up 
@acromouse safe travels friend…hope you have a wonderful visit
@sarath_unrelax damn the pressure from our friends…they really aren’t our friends (at least that is my experience) if they keep you in addiction and don’t allow you to live your best life. Great to see you on day 2
Quick morning check in… coffee ready and on my way out for my morning walk. So grateful the storms have shifted for later today.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day… sending you all so much love

Checking in day 137.
Had a really productive day today.
Mowed the lawns, washed the cars, sprayed the house for mildew, smoked some meats (beef ribs and pork belly bites) and tidied the house. Our 3yr old had a great day pottering around the place as well, he kept himself busy with all sorts of activities and joined me every now and then. He’s settling into the big brother role really nicely too, stealing her from his mum to give her a gentle cuddle tonight.
Another productive day planned tomorrow - clearing/tidying out the shed, maybe a tip run and then having some visitors over for a few hours at midday. Maybe we’ll go out for dinner tomorrow night or get take out. I might also try squeeze in a massage after such a tough week at work.
Have a great weekend everyone!

I’ve just started to read again “Tools” by Phil Stutz and refreshing knowledge on why and how to use the tools, great technique on how to overgrow your brain (turn your fears and pain to courage and take action; and many other) and have as much as possible control over your life and what you want to achieve. It’s quite different to many other motivational literature available out there. It basically says there are three certainties in life - fear/pain, uncertainty and work. The better we approach those three aspects of our lives the better are our chances to be fulfilled, experience much more moments of happiness and you know, kind of be effective and cut any BS to minimum. I believe if I read this book every day including reading and being active here will significantly reduce possibility of a relapse. Thank God and you guys for your support.Be well
