I used to go to the gym a lot so I know I can DO the things it’s just feeling self conscious about doing it. I’m terrified I’ve become the old fat lady that people laugh at. But I know I’ll be better after a trip or two….once I get in my groove. I just want to be the only one there when I go.
You cant worry about what other people think. At some point we all get older. Out of shape. You do what you need to do to keep you on track. I hate that the world has this effect on some people, more than we think. You got this!!!
Welcome, this place has worked miracles for alot of people. Coming on this app and just reading and staying involved works. Im sorry you relapsed but atleast you are aware and back at it. I did the exact opposite at first which was work, work, work… and keeping busy… thats what helps me. I think now i need to settle down and do a little bit if what youre doing. Take it easy, watch some old movies… rest my brian and thoughts for a little while. Wishing you the best!
LOL. “You can’t worry about what other people think”. That right there is exactly what got me on this forum!!! But I know and it’s what I’ve been working on for years. Baby steps
Did a long walk after work leaving my phone at home.
I played Pickleball!

I’ll go first
I woke up & went to the gym
Enjoyed my coffee
Decided to go to Home Depot & get stuff to garden so I did one half of my flower bed today
I’m about to start dinner for my family
deep breath
Today was a good day
Ate a random packet of skittles and drank a glass of water when the “I’m cooking so I could just buy a bottle of wine, put some in dinner and have some myself” urge hit.
ODAAT
I joined this forum! Day 1!
Ate healthy. Took a walk after dinner.
Had a great long catch up session with a great friend! Met at a restaurant/bar - and i didnt have any desire to drink (didnt have to constantly remind myself of how awesome sobriety is)- felt great to have a clear headed evening

Went to a coffee shop not a bar when I had 40 mins to kill before my train home. It’s the little things. ODAAT
I did cry. I did talk about it. I could let some pressure out of the system. It was dangerous.
I walked.
I asked the owners of my cats for some pictures to cheer me up. Now I can look at them which makes me happy.
I am very happy for you Franzi
I made balanced and healthy dinner, allowing myself to rest and hang around at TS…
