Really felt like drinking

Its my day off. This is the kind of day I would start drinking early and watch movies all day with a happy little buzz (ignoring what I knew I would feel the next day at work.)
I wanted to do that so bad today. Was not exactly tempted, but I wanted it.
So, I went to the gym instead and kicked my own ass. Now, I have the endorphins flowing and am so happy to be sober now. Feeling good.

Way to go! Better than alcohol kicking it.

Great job! It's days off that are hardest for me (although I haven't quit drinking yet)...I sometimes wonder what to do with myself without a drink in my hand. It's great that you found an alternative

And a nice guilt-free and hangover-free day to come tomorrow too - well done, you!

Going to the gym, meditating, getting sun, walking, etc.. are all great things that take your mind off drinking! Great job!!
