Home from a long tiring shift. Luckily, I squeezed out before they started drinking and I had some excuse (which isn’t needed really). I said I had to pick up a friend and I slipped out. it feels great to be falling asleep sober and safe

Congratulations to all you sober Aprilers.
Just checking in on my day 6.
I’ve been busying myself with painting and decorating the kitchen in preparation for a lady from Wisconsin coming to stay with me for the summer. I’ve been beavering away for fourteen hour days so I haven’t even thought about picking up. I’m looking forward to having some different energy in the house.
Happy weekend everyone.
I’m embarrassed to say that other than I know it’s in America, I have absolutely no idea where Wisconsin is. 😳

Hello everyone
Congrats on all your milestones!
I'm now on a very, very long-awaited, hard-won, hanging-by-my-slippery-fingers day 3 bulimia-free .....
Determined not to fall this time.
Hope all our Aprils are doing well 🤞🤞🤞

Whew. I thought I'd be bright eyed and bushy tailed this morning but I guess the combination of the rainy weather and my new sobriety kept me in bed until noon. Also, my job is very taxing. The weekends are incredibly busy. we aren't out of the pandemic yet but everyone is acting like we are.
I was supposed to have coffee with a friend of mine, she's 66, and is now fully vaccinated. We were going to resume our old morning coffee date. We both slept through! Anyway I am really glad that the morning coffee date can come into my life again. And walking my dog without feeling nauseous or guilty that I'm hung over when he needs attention and exercise

Well done resisting the booze in the store, ladytron.
Hi Countrystix. 👏🏻💕
Plenny, you must have needed the sleep. Coffee dates are nice. I’m looking forward to that with a friend too. We’ve sat outside back in the fall, and soon the weather will be nice again.
My daughter is still here, but I think going home this afternoon. I haven’t seen her yet today. I just heard her get up and into the shower. It’s 2pm here, lol. If she stays, I need to figure out another dinner. I feel like she eats poorly on her own so try to feed her when she’s here.
Not craving wine so far today. 🤞🏻

Congrats Tufty on Day 6. Wisconsin is pretty much top middle of the US with its North border being Lake Superior, East border is Lake Michigan, South border is Illinois, and West border Minnesota and a bit of Iowa. It’s a very pretty state known for its dairy products, particularly cheese. It is also heavily wooded in areas with lots of lakes. And of course home of the Green Bay Packers American football team. I live on the North Western part of the state close to Minneapolis and St. Paul. I hope that helps. I don’t know much about Melbourne myself but would love to learn more.

Good evening all.Had a busy day at work it felt good to be clear headed today, got loads done. Plenny, haven’t seen my sister since before Christmas, we were so excited on the phone earlier arranging a coffee date, it felt so normal! Welcome sober53, wish I could say something inspirational but just hang in there, it can only get better! Feeling okay but a bit meh tonight think I’m just tired but also if I’m honest missing the glass in my hand on a Saturday evening a bit. I won’t miss the hangover tomorrow though. Hope everyone else is doing well today/night.

It should not hurt at the time, though?

I always go for deep tissue or remedial massage, which really gets deep into the problem areas. There are other sorts of massage that don’t hurt, like a light relaxation massage which is more gentle. It depends on what you prefer or what your aim is. Mine is usually for pain relief (headache, back pain etc) so it’s deeper.

It's day 18.
I'm really struggling with binge eating. I eat fine during the day then I wake up at night and it's like I'm on cookie autopilot. It needs to stop.
I'm starting a whole health kick tomorrow. Running three times a week, strength training three times a week, yoga every day, eating healthily, quitting vaping and drinking pepsi, meditating for half an hour each day. So I need to end these night time binges. I suppose I need to replace the food with something else. Maybe a cup on chamomile tea or a glass of water.

Welcome Sober53 
Day18 is great Freedomfries. I’m trying to lead a healthy lifestyle too, but the food is a challenge.
I’m doing a little exercise too but probably not enough...
I didn’t sleep at all well last night and I’m so tired today. Fuzzy head. I’m off for a nap zzzzz
