MindfulLiving, hugs from me too. It's a shame your hubby isn't more supportive. HeadLump is right, sometimes people around us just don't get it.....but we on here do.

kahlia, good on you for not having that glass of wine.

Almost dinner time here in the UK, I'm having a nice chicken curry for dinner, yum.

Hope everyone is doing well.

I had a strange trigger today I had an energy drink called charged citrus by Nos
I started drinking it and it tasted just like Mike's Hard Lemonade I threw it away immediately but I've been tasting Mikes rest of the day. Ugh

Good night friends have a good sober happy night. I'm going to go test my eyelids for leaks. I have to be awake early.

Perhaps your husband will see how committed you are and change his tune ML.I hope so
In the end tho, you have to do this for you...and there's always a ton of support here.

Morning all,

I'm still going strong here, on day 17 today (I'm finding it hard to not count days, lol).

It's a lovely fresh morning here in the UK, you can really feel that autumn is in the air now.

Missy, well done on 11 days, keep it going!

Hope everyone is well, will check in again later.

Good morning all.

I'm so pleased to see everyone doing so well. Giving up alcohol will change your lives (and those of others around you) in ways you never imagined. It's a true privilege to share this journey with you

Eyes, I hope you're doing well. Not seen you for a while?

Fixy, I hope you're ok, too, and that you haven't sprung a leak from any part of your body

Sadly, I am back to day one of no bingeing. This is such a hard nut to crack and I cannot understand it but I will never give up trying Thank you so much for being there, my friends, and for keeping me accountable.

Happy Friday all xxx

Lol, I know, it's still fairly early on August, but the early morning air is just getting that autumnal feeling and light has changed a little. I love autumn, too, September can be a lovely month.

Sorry to hear you're back to day 1 with your food , keep on trying, you can do this!

Lumpy you will get there anything worth having takes a little bit extra effort and I know that you have it in you. By the way I have no leaks as of yet :-)

Morning all and happy sober friday!

Headlump, you definitely will get to where you want to be. Just keep trying and you will make it happen.

Missy congrats on dayn11, I guess 12 today! Thats great.

Mr f how do those new golf clubs hit? I'm envious, been wanting a new set for a while now. So glad you were able to terat yourself with money saved from drinking. I know that feels great. Every single day I come home from work and tell my wife tthat's another $12 we just saved. Still irritates me how much money we wasted throughout the years and have nothing to show for it. Now I'll be working until I'm 108 just to put my kids through college...

Mr F, have a great time at the Panthers game. Think my little brother is taking his kids to it as well.

Mindful, so sorry to hear about your support issues at home. To some extent my wife is the same way, she just doesn't get it. She is happy for me but I can tell that she' saying to herself "that's no big deal, lets talk about something that matters".

We know what you are going through, we know how much youn have accomplished and we are very proud of you! As you said, take care of yourself first, thats the important part. Everything else will fall into place. You are doing fantastic!

I too love the fall but am just not ready to give up the summer yet. Kids back in school in 9 days now. Sometimes I wish time would just SLOW down a bit. Where I did this summer go? I am happy that I was sober for a good portion of it. I know my kids could sense a difference this summer from those in the past.

Hi and good morning to everyone else. Hope all is well friends and we can get ready for a good sober weekend!
