3- took the dog on 3 longer walks. I think she's getting used to the routine and we're both walking a bit faster, feeling good
4- I told people in work that I'm no longer drinking. None of them know the extent to which I was drinking but I was invited out and I declined because essentially it was a boozy night out.
5- my Fitbit has shown me that in 8 days, my resting heart rate has decreased by 15bpm! And my fitness has increased. Still in the 'poor' section but, it's improvement.
I'd like to think I look a bit better complexion wise. I'm not waking up covered in sweat/grease from all the sugar I've been burning off at night or grease from crappy food I've eaten coming out of my pores. I've taken a picture of my face on day 7. I'd like to see if in the coming weeks, theres a visible difference.

4- I received money from an eBay sale and bought food and nice shower gels(now sober, I spend more time in the shower!) Not once was I tempted to buy alcohol. Two weekends ago, that money would have been wasted.
5- started a new craft project
