Well, I got through a day without the sauce, and though I ate a lot of junk food through the night, I feel more refreshed and less poisoned.
The physical part only presents itself after around 5pm for me (no idea why that is), but at least I'm not throwing up water into the bathtub and trying to control dry heaves this morning.
Today is my second day, and though not a huge fan of counting and feeling like "oh look at me, I'm at day x!", I need it a bit to validate myself of my efforts in the beginning.
I'm not sure what kind of plan will work best for me. When I stopped for half a year a long while back when I joined, I just deemed alcohol a poison and told myself it's dumb to drink flammable liquids. I stopped on the summer solstice. Maybe I'll tattoo today's date on my forearm. It's my parent's birthday.
I'm going to FIGHT each and every temptation within, start enjoying this amazing backyard I have, and live a healthier life.
