If there's one piece of advice I'd give you, it's exercise. You have to make yourself do it. Walk for 5 min around the block, briskly, breathe deeply. Although in my first week of sobriety, I was soooo tired. I shut my office door and napped on the floor. Seriously. That's my second piece of advice - take it easy on yourself. I had a plan and was all set to do all these things. What I didn't realize was that exhaustion was going to set in. So instead of my planned action packed days, I allowed myself to nap, go to bed really early. Just whatever suited my fancy. Just don't drink.
