Thanks Everyone and Today is Day 2

Well thanks you all for you responses on my thread about does anyone really care. Wow! I got so many. It made me feel good.

Well today is my day 2. Last night stunk. But instead of drinking i stuffed my face. A Big Mac, Fries, Rootbeer (well I got to drink something called beer) and I supersized it.

Oh Geez. I think I"m going to be replacing my drinks with Food.

Well its breakfast time for me here. What should I stuff my face with now?

Today is Tuesday. My job goes to TGIF Restaurant for Happy Hour on Tuesday. I hvae to make sure I don't go.

Good for you! Tell them that you have other plans and that you will not be able to go. Find a friend and go out to eat or toa movie or something. Even go and rent a movie and just go home. I wish you the best of luck, you are going to be just fine!

hey Rose. Good on you for trying this again. Stick with us and I know you'll get a lot of support. It's a stinky part of your brain that wants you to think that no one cares, but it's just NOT true.

((Once)) thats Fantasic your on day 2, for me, its one of them were IF you fall down, you pick yourself up as fast as possiable...If not you give it time to get a hold on to you...!

Go for it sweetie... as sweet as a you need at the moment...!

Food is better than booze or drugs but also not to many of those fry things from Mds...! minced what...! hope that put you off...! but its better to feed yourself than drown in booze.

(((Once))), lots of us are here for you as you are for us...!

My thoughts are with you...X

I think we all know what you mean. I dreaded stopping just because I didn't want to stay awake all night thinking about everything. But by about my fifth night I was getting some quality sleep, so it does come. Just make sure to stay away from caffine after about late afternoon.

You're doing great. Keep us posted.

P.S. Tonight's my 7th night without yeast excrement to dull my senses. It's almost 11 p.m. and I'm feeling tired naturally. It's nice.

Great to hear your back on track again. I pigged out too in the beginning and then vegged out for about two weeks. Two months later I am back into exercising and lost about 8 pounds.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel just don't look back.

WTG! Remember the first days are the hardest. Give your body and mind a chance to rest and heal and then you'll see how great you can feel and how clearly you can think.

Do something positive for yourself instead of the happy hour. Don't give up before the miracle happens!

Congrats for Day 2!!!

I know what you mean about the food - I've been eating like a pig! It helps to have something to drink at all times - water, gatorade, soda, even hot chocolate or tea - all that liquid fills ya up!!!

Stay Strong!

I'm proud of you Rose. You deserve this so, so much, you're such a wonderful person. You really helped me when I first quit. I don't know if you knew that, but you really did help me.

I stuff my face a lot too when I'd like to have a drink. Whatever works, right?

Hey Rose, Day 2 for me too. I think if I just focus on now instead of 2morrow it will make it easier. Good luck, and you will be in my prayers. One day at a time...
