I'm on day 5. I had some cravings last night, but was nowhere near breaking! Today I'm home by myself and hubs tossed all the beer yesterday. Good man!!

I have to get busy with housework, I need to go grocery shopping. (Load up on sweets because last night I was reduced to eating peanut butter and honey on ritz crackers- and I NEEDED CHOCOLATE!!!) But, I made it. Thank god! Lol

I'm feeling anxious obviously, but that's life- for now. My resolve is unbroken. That whole thing about eating, and staying hydrated... VERY IMPORTANT! I can feel my blood sugar freaking out on me, so if you guys have any suggestions on that- lemme know!

Day 5 is great and all- but I know, the cravings of last night are NOTHING compared to what I'm in for over the next few mos. I keep telling myself "buckle up- it's gonna be a rough FN ride!" But I'm READY! I'm a fighter and I'll never give up. I can't... Or I'll die.

I love reading all of the experiences here, and sharing mine. It's pretty amazing how much an Internet forum can bring people together and offer support. Really cool.:thanks

Congratz and do what you have to do to stay sober--it's worth it!

I'm right there with you on needing chocolate. It's day 16 for me and I'm hoping that maybe the healthy eating will kick in sometime soon or I'm not going to fit into my jeans.......
Hope you have a great, sober weekend.

I too have found SR to be a lifeline of support.:)
