Day 4 and going strong

Working the next 4 days, keeps my mind off of it for 1/2 the day. Foggy head but feel pretty good physically despite the lack of sleep.

Congrats! I'm on day 4 as well strangely enough. Today was a difficult one, finished work at 5ish and work colleagues invited me out to an event that has just arrived in town, and I knew it'd revolve around the beer tent. The forecast of heavy rain and that I didn't want to undo three consecutive days in the gym plus my new resolve helped get through that one. I have work late tomorrow and won't finish until Sunday morning, then am not in until Tuesday so Sunday afternoon is the next danger period, after that I'm in work for a week constant so if I avoid drinking Sunday, I'll make it to two weeks as I never drink before a work shift. Good luck all, hopefully we can celebrate two weeks together

Goofy,

Keep it going, it only gets better. I damn near died from a relapse, you don't need to go there.

4 days is usually the start of the upswing for me. Congratulations on finishing out the day!
