Thanks for the welcome Weasel. I'm struggling right now but determined to get through. I can't imagine going to work on a Monday feeling good. I'm ready for this.

So my plan to stay sober is to keep busy, busy, busy. It's going to to hard but I'm going to try hard. The night time will be the worst. Someone recommended ice cream helps. I'm on a diet (as I have a huge beer gut) but I will get some ice cream anyway, can't be any less calories than 15 stubbies right?

I promise to you, and myself, that I'm not going to drink this weekend. I can do this!
Throw out the diet if you can. Focus on one thing only. Eat ice cream and know you are doing good for yourself.

If no one told you this secret we all know, allow me..... No person ever... Not even once... Died from a craving. They will certainly pass as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow. Keep that in your head as you feel one come and watch it go.

We are here for you so please jump in and enjoy the conversation. We want to hear from you.

Ken

Welcome piggin and GN--well met

ice cream is my go-to when craving--use the (delicious) tools you have
As you get stronger in sobriety, you can worry about the diet.

Right now, no alcohol is the diet


P.S Soberwolf, can I join you on the roof? Warmer here too. . .

good to see everyone and the new 'faces'
keep checking in... no excuses to drink, if you think you are going to cave in, post here first and get permission BEFORE you pick up a drink...

hope to see some of the people who have been missing...



substitute your favorite name who you haven't seen in a while,
let's call them out, over dosing on ice cream is no excuse!

Good morning!

Great, as always, to see the familiar friends here.

And ggggrrrreeeaaattt to see new names! Weasel/Ken, you did such a great job highlighting what SR -- the people who are SR -- offers all of us. This is a place that will help you. Stay close. Post often. Accept and give support.

Together, we can all do this.

Thanks Weas for getting us started.

Greetings to Piggin and Goingnowhere! Welcome and chip in when the mood takes ye.

Ice cream is better than crack.
Even the dairy-free
variety

What has that chap Beuller been up to lately? Has he taken a day off?
