Day 18
Doing pretty well on day 18. I’m on day 7 of 30 days rehabbing from surgery which makes things a little more complicated, but I’m hanging in there. Cravings getting less and pass in time. So grateful each time I don’t give in.

Yes, 18 finally feels like a solid number. I was sort of stuck for awhile on the 5’s, 8’s, 11’s etc.
I am up and about. It’s just that I cannot exercise for another 23 days, and that was a huge part of my recovery. I guess there is always walking 😕.

Yep, now Day 19. It’s amazing how much easier it is to rack up days compared to the beginning when I was dealing with such strong cravings. Now each day is so much easier craving wise to get through.

Walk. It's wonderful. I hate it.
At least, at first. The thought of it. But it never fails that after about 5 minutes I find it awesome. And the low intensity allows my brain to let go of some things and not be under constant agony. (You can probably tell I'm not a big fan of exercise... ) Every. Single. Time. by the end of a good walk I feel refreshed mentally.Keep trucking. So glad to have a someone else in my same general timeframe with this around...
