End of Day 168. Congrats to everyone who is staying sober.

Thought of the day: The exits on the alcohol highway keep reducing as we continue to drink increasing quantities.

Let us take the exit now when the next one comes. Let us not worry as to when we can join the freeway again, because there's no need to.

Good night from Seattle.

welcome calmself :)

Hey guys I’m trying again after about a dozen failures in the last 2 or 3 years. 40 years and it’s not fun anymore plus old age. To old for this rollercoaster.

Have an ultrasound on the liver tomorrow. Fatty liver and it’s supposed to be every year.

Lost count of sober days. I would say I drank a six pack of beer 2 of the last dozen days. Did not sleep well those days. Since then I have happily decided not to drink. Don’t want it because of the stuff like bad sleep, itching etc. Not to mention irritability, GI, and all the other stuff we know about including liver disease and death.

I would guess it’s been 5 days.

Changed my diet to low fat, low salt, no sugar. Lost 10 pounds.

Welcome Khorhey :)

Good morning, thanks Dee for what you do here.

Good morning everybody-
Figured I'd move over to the May thread. Happy Sober Sunday!

Good morning, I'm in for a sober May

I’m still here. The withdrawal has not been fun even with medication. Of course being a good little addict I over did that. There’s no way I could take just 3 lorazepam a day which I thought was a bit much anyway so I’ve kicked that down to 1. I can’t say life is a bowl of cherries but I have 5 days now. It’s good to be here.

Might be a good idea to check in with your prescribing doc dear Valentine. Tomorrow, I mean. :)
Five days is great!!! Really happy for you. ❤️

Hi Five, Sam and Khorhey :hug: s ❤️

Thanks, Dee. You rock!!

Hi calm, hope you are having a great Sunday! :) :hug: ❤️

Hi Suze, Yes!! Packing for Hawaii trip. We are starting this Saturday and staying at waikiki Beach ⛱️. Lot of packing. Hope you are enjoying the weekend as well.

That is wonderful calm!!! Don't pack too much like I always do. :) :hug: s ❤️

Oh Calm that sounds fantatic! It is the unpacking that I loathe, lol.

I just attended an AA meeting that was really good. I am all dressed and ready to take sons prom tux rental back... it is an hour away. Son is taking his sweet time primping... haha. I really should have thought of taking it back this morning before getting so close to witching hour, but I'll make it through.

Welcome imvalentine, Samwitch and Five :)

Thanks, Suze and Citrus. Agree with you, Suze. I am a heavy packer as well. Should try to keep it light. And Citrus, unpacking is not only a big chore but think about the fact that vacation is over....

Count me in for May, please..
