Day One!
I'm sure the headache will come. Normally I work through it until I have my first drink. Now is a great time for me to get back into yoga. I'm making night time plans for today. I'll take myself out to dinner. It has been a long time since I've been out at night. I'm sure the city will look completely different. I will soak it all in. I'm thinking if I plan each evening, I'll avoid the alcohol. I will start to exercise slowly, walking at the park down the street. My music will come in handy here.
I really think yesterday was the turning point for me. I went to the park and flew my paragliding wing. That was the most exercise I've had in months. I had said these words out loud and I think I got the message. The last time I flew was on the beaches of West Palm. I look forward to living again.

I'm on day 22 today. I posted this in another thread, but I'm finding it pretty easy to stay sober. I'm getting really tired in the middle of the day, and my brain fog has not lifted much. I think I need advice on nutrition. Never been a really healthy eater. Can someone please give me some direction on what I should be eating and what suppliments to take. Thanks so much for your help.

I've been upping my vitamins this last few weeks. For the first 2 weeks I was taking tylenol every day for my headaches.
Tonight is going to be a test. I play on a ladies pool team and we're meeting tonight for some practice games at the pub. I have to go through with it at some point if i'm still going to play pool this year. I'm just going to tell the girls that me and booze have broken up for awhile and leave it at that. Only one of the girls is a heavier drinker, the other two don't really drink much at all so it won't be too hard to be around them.

Hey Skyburst. good to see you I was getting lonely.
sas: It's the end of my 14th day also...thats all we need to be here. Can you believe we made it two whole weeks!?!?! !!
When I signed on tonight I was feeling sorry for myself for having a crapy day...but I suddenly remembered the day I had 2 weeks ago and this one pales in comparison.
I'd rather feel crapy sober than be hungover anyday

Way to go Self and Sad! :bounce
I'm working on organizational skills now. I take a lot of notes but they're all so unorganized. I should take a picture of these 50 million post-its all over the place.
It's overwhelming. I don't know what to do first. Getting side tracked is a problem as well. I don't think it's a problem with focus. I think I just need to prioritize my tasks.
I just started back to the to-do list. I don't know why I stopped. I guess quitting 19 days ago took all my attention. I've got about 10 tablets and I need to go through them and put the sheets in a binder. I'll do that tomorrow, (writing that on my to-do list) after I do all the other things on my list. I hope I always have stuff to do. I would hate to be bored.
