Today is a beautiful day i woke up feeling refreshed and happy
I have my sporty side back
I have lost weight put more muscle on and feel fantastic
I'm currently put myself down for a spinathon spinning for 24 hours to raise money for charity and to celebrate the tour de France so i went for a two hour bike ride
I'm doing kettlebells and running as often as i can my body is aching from it all but its a healthy ache instead of a alcohol ache
I often think i don't deserve to feel good like this and often think of ways to destroy it and drink....
I just wanted to post this as i feel its vital we try and get ourselves back before the substance of our choice took us, its also great to focus on something else other than how much we want a drink or how often we have failed...
Doing other things is working for me
Thanks for reading folks
