Good morning!
All good here, it took me 20 000 steps yesterday to snap me out of it - the dog loves his new extra time outside. After that went food shopping and stocked up on ginger beer which I quite like to have a glass of now in the evenings as opposed to alcohol.
I am trying to eat somewhat healthy although my diet has never really been my issue, just the bloody drink. But can definitely notice how easily I reach for sugary snacks now, so stocked up on some fruit too.
I feel full of victory today but got to be careful not to become too cocky, I think a little fear over my own control of the situation can go a long way to keep me on top of it.

Dried to have a chat with my friend over this as felt frustration she again invited me to the pub. I did it really nicely but told her not to do so ever again. I believe she has a substance abuse issue of her own so think there is an amount of annoyance from her behalf and maybe a bit of sadness that she is losing a drinking buddy. She will get over it.
