@Girlinterrupted you have made so much progress in the last week and you kept sober at weekend, heading in right direction well done. Hope the sickness improves as you say gym is really a good tonic to our moods.

Checking in Day 44

Day mapped out (the only way I can move forward), job searching, lunch, job searching, dog walk, gym, then food shop (if anything left as people are panic buying re Corona!)
@Fargesia_murielae great read as usual respect your thought process
@Chrispl congrats on 36 and HIT, I tried that class last week it hurts but good.
@bodhil good you have your meeting and better those days are stacking up.
Personally, @Conor689908 and @SoberWalker I think going abroad will be ok, stopping people travelling is like “shutting the stable door after its bolted” certainly would not stop me. Boris Johnson is still shaking hands, so he is not in a panic! Fingers crossed for you, as sunshine would be perfect :slight_smile:

Have a great day all :innocent: :muscle: :pray:

Hiit workouts are recommended only for people, who are fit.
For unfit people they are too dangerous to exercise like that.

Just to chime in, unfit healthy people can definitely potentially do HIIT, if their doctor approves and especially if they’re under supervision of a trained professional, physical therapist, certified trainers, kinesiologist etc. (Cardiac patients, injuries, preg/postpartum may be some exceptions) but for sure those “not in shape” or unfit can do HIIT! Just didn’t want to deter those who wanted to try :blush:

What if you guys got together informally? I hold mastermind groups a lot for business, maybe you ladies could do a sober mastermind to keep each other strong :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I didn’t mean that they can’t can’t, what I meant, is that it can be dangerous for them.

GREAT idea!!

Day 30, holy crap one actual month. So proud of myself. These last two days have been weird, I’d feel happy and then to into a complete foggy feeling, almost like I wanted to cry and idk why. So hard to describe it. But at least I’m sober, I’m actually kinda of starting to love myself lately, I’m not putting myself down all day like I use to. Have a good day

Checking in on Day 225. Got the word last night that the Arnold is cancelled, so…that sucks. Like, I get the reasoning behind it, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t still suck. I suppose Arnold 2021 will be my first one. Who knows, maybe I’ll compete at it???

Still totally taking Friday off. We both have a three-day weekend, which is unheard of, so we gotttttta capitalize on that.

Checking in on day 5 of being clean and sober! Yesterday was a rough day for me. Lots of emotion due to an argument with family over financial stuff. I owe them a shit ton of money due to not taking care of my finances. I have already begun repayment of 500 a month. Anyway, I went to bed upset which I dont like to do. This morning has been abit better. I set my alarm for 520am to wake up and go to the gym but I ended up sleeping in. I suppose I needed the rest. I will do my daily readings though and even try to get an at home workout in (or possibly a late evening one when I can go). I’m fighting the urge to not get upset over not going to the gym this morning. Feels like I let myself down. I am excited though to get back into baking and decorating cakes. I have a special cake due for a pair of twins through Icing Smiles (an organization that provides cakes for kids with a terminal illness). It’s one way I can give back. So I’m working on planning this cake, which keeps me busy :slight_smile: Hope today is better than yesterday!

850+ days and I’m still paying off debt. Seems like the more I pay off, the more different ones pop up. Such is life. I will continue debt whack-a-mole until they are gone or I die. Probably die at this point.
