I am 100% certain that you can make sobriety a FOREVER thing. Stay close to us and talk to us before picking up. Make a plan for football games. Have lots of your sober beverage ready and lots of your favorite foods.

I'm hungover again from sugar. Ate an entire box of snack bars on the drive home last night.
I did call the woman from OA but she is already working with a sponsee so she can't take me as well. This means I will have to call into the phone meeting this morning to find a new one. I will pray to be led to the right person for me although I really, really liked her.
Having said all of that, she did make a really good point about gut flora and how certain bacteria can cause sugar cravings. She reminded me to continue taking my candida herbs and Pau D'arco tea to try to help with the cravings. I know if I can just get through the first 3 weeks, I will be okay. It better happen soon because I'm running out of pants that fit me comfortably. It's gross. (Thankfully I never donated my larger sizes that were too big for me last year.) I know all I need is a week of keto to lose this water weight and start shedding some of this gained fat.
Oh, and I'm meeting with a new therapist on Thursday.
I guess this week doesn't look too bad. Going to color my hair at home today as well with a henna creme. Wish me luck, I haven't done this in years.
Love you guys.
Here for 24 more hours of sobriety and God grant me the willingness to stop binge eating.

Wishing us all a fresh start and some new perspective this week.

This is my first time posting, and a new first day for me. This is something I need for so many reasons, none of them new; health, relationships, overall well-being, clear headedness and energy. Here is to 24 hours alcohol free, hopeful and a bit scared of what else - failure again. Thanks for reading.
