Requent meetings as much as you can, you can do it. Beleive me if i can do this you can!!!! i have faith. day by day just tell your self, i can do this, nothing cant stop me!

Fridays are really hard in early sobriety. Try to think through until Saturday morning and how great and relieved you will feel to wake up and know you did the right thing.

Today is my day ten too. When I wake up in the morning knowing that yesterday I didn't drink, it is a good day. As the sober day count gets higher...the reasons not to drink get higher as well.

I have lost weight too and I feeeeel so much better. Drinking causes me to eat more, exercise less, and give up. When I drink I lose all control, I don't like that, and it seeps into every area of my life. That one drink leads down a path of negative- everything. Let the craving pass and look for that feeling of complete victory of not giving in to it. The desire will be fleeting but the reality of being a stronger better healthier happier you will last a lot longer. (: YOu can do it!

Just take it a day at a time. Just stay sober today. Tomorrow is not here yet.

Just remember it always passes. I remember my first days and it always felt like something was missing. Get through today, watch a good movie tonight and tomorrow will take care of itself. Stay strong, 10 days is awesome.

I can guarantee you won't regret having stayed sober when you wake up tomorrow morning kmick
