Day 2...finally

Well, it took almost a week, but yesterday was day one. It was hard, but not the hardest thing I've ever done. The worst part was my insatiable appetite. I wanted to eat everything in the house. Of course, that was impossible because of the stomach cramps I was having. That being said, those were my only symptoms (no headaches, no irritability). Oh, I take that back...I did have a hard time sleeping. I'm sure those things are to come, but...
I just got back from the gym and had the best workout I've had in months. And I actually enjoyed it for the first time in 2 years! Now if I can only remember this feeling when the afternoon cravings start. A couple of hours from now I imagine myself back here reading my post just to make sure I didn't imagine the morning. The feeling of FINALLY being able to the core exercises that involved balance without the feeling of falling on my face.

And thanks to all of you who replied to me last week. Your support gave the bump I needed to take the first step.

Good for you Lakes! You are smart to get in to the exercising right away, it certainly made a huge difference in my life.

Way to go! I'm on day 2 as well. I know that in the next couple of days I'm going to start romancing the thought of drinking again. My weapon right now is to keep the memory of my last binge fresh.
