Hah, it’s the little things that excite me these days…
Today was…itchy. Like, nothing felt right and I was very discontented all day for no apparent reason. I suspect just blood sugar rediscovering it can’t depend on leftover sugar from alcohol the night before! I was also starrrrrving all day. Weird.
Got through the day. My angel husband bought me flowers after I told him I was cranky. Sweet, that one.
Cuddling a puppy or two (they keep leaving and coming back) and all feels right with the world again. Also swam again tonight–I missed nighttime swimming!
Well done you! A know the feeling of happiness when you reach that milestone x

I have not drank in 12 days, but coupled with that is a cleanse and healthier eating that I started 8 days ago. Yesterday was my seventh day on that. I was doing so great until yesterday I hit a brick wall! I was basically a zombie all day lol. Anyway, the people coaching me said it was to be expected on days 5-11. This just proves how terrible alcohol is for our bodies – not only the alcohol itself but the sugar!! Keep going ! Doesn’t it feel great to wake up refreshed!

Wow I don’t know how you can quit drinking and try to restrict what you eat at the same time! I tried whole 30 last year and, well, started drinking and eating off plan around day 10!

It has been really hard these last few days. I broke down and ate a bowl of cereal last night. We shall see how it all turns out. I am trying to just take one day at a time ā¤ļø.

Eat more. Do whatever it takes to make sobriety soft and enjoyable.

Puppies, flowers, swimming. Sounds good. Add in whatever you need to feel better (food, ice cream, fancy coffees, whatever) without alcohol and keep it going. It gets better.
