Day four here. I have woken up with a bizarre amount of energy, something I haven't had for some considerable time, even prior to the slip last week.
Hope everyone is having a lovely morning. It's so sunny here in London again :-)

Day 3 I'm one day behind you JaneLane and in the UK too!
My second sleepless night..I have a nasty cough which kept me awake and I suspect the sweaty first night may in part an incubating bug Ugghh!!!
Feeling so rough I can't go to the gym today although I am going to have to try to work from home..
Went to bed early last night...I'm also reading a book on mindfulness Chadders!
Thank goodness I am not drinking as I fear I would feel even worse than I do now..
Have a good day all

I seem to be stuck in nasty cycle. I really need to put the brakes on this and get moving into sobriety. I can't remember the last time I had several nights of good sleep in a row. I am really tired of being tired.

Day 8 for me too! Feeling good overall! For those that are struggling.. Seriously give it a chance! It really does get easier. I'm on Wellbutrin because I suffer from depression and smoked. The Wellbutrin is helping me a lot with withdrawal and cravings! Also 5 days smoke free as well!

Day 6 begins.
Had a rough time falling asleep last night and my energy is pretty low this morning. It feels like its going to be an emotional day. On the bright side, it seems like some brain fog is lifting and Im not as confused at all the little things. Yesterday I was making dinner and putting things away in the wrong places, couldn't find things I had already used, etc... It was pretty odd.
Anyway, I hope to get a good walk and stretch in today. My back is kiling me from all this time spent in bed over the past few days and I need some exercise.
Seems like a lot of us are starting to make some good progress. This is going to be a great week!

Yes we're hitting a lot of milestones this week! Day 8 for me - one week complete!
For those that are just starting out, I already feel very different to one week ago. I am not being complacent but long may it continue...
Have a good day all. Just turning into the evening here but I am determined I will go to bed sober.
Take care all

Great to see so many of us April-ers sticking to it! Day 4 for me and I'm starting to feel a slight improvement in my health and my clarity of thought. Slept slightly better last night but still not great. I'm conscious of being over-confident though but I have to say again, coming on here after work is something I really look forward to! Didn't get chance to log on at work today but now I'm home cooking (went food shopping again and strolled past my local like it wasn't there!) so here I am. Luckily I don't connect work with drinking at all - it's very rare we do anything socially together. On Thursday evening though I'm going with a few colleagues to see a play a workmate of mine is directing. Ordinarily I would be on the beers but I feel strangely positive about it! At the moment I'm looking forward to going there sober and trying some different soft drinks. Tomato juice is a fave but I tend to drink it quite fast. Any good long drink suggestions welcome! Hopefully watching the play sober I'll actually enjoy it instead of hazing through and then rushing to get out so I can cram a few more before I get home. That isn't going to happen this time!
Beautiful day in London today so I'm really pleased that the beer garden didn't tempt me. Well, it tempted me but the temptation passed VERY quickly! :-)
Best Wishes everyone!
