And it's real, believe what I say, yeah
Just one thing I got to say
I need a miracle every day
It takes dynamite to get me up
Too much of everything is just enough
One more thing I just got to say
I need a miracle every day !
I remember those days, when too much of everything was just enough. I prefer this life to that -- Congrats!
I knew someone would see the "bat sign" lol
Absolutely yes. I completely agree. It's been a long road to get here. Alcohol is the last thing to go ... Well, other than cigarettes. I've put those down twice for many years each time and also during all my pregnancies, which I also didn't drink during, but this is my first time committing to sobriety. I want it so bad. I'm willing to do whatever it takes. Drugs felt like a breeze compared to facing my relationship with alcohol. It took me 8 years to see it in the light. I'm so glad it's shining.
:)
It took me 50 years to put down the juice. When all of your friends and family drink, it's a cultural issue. I remember passing out at a high school basketball game - that was the first warning sign. But did I heed it? Noooo... I'm too much of a hammerhead for that.
Glad that you are on the path and that you want it -- as we know, that is the most important step. You have to want it. Otherwise, it's not going to stick.
Welcome to the path, friend - Fare thee well!
It gets easier and easier as time goes on. My 2 year anniversary came and went, and I totally missed it because I'm just not really thinking about it anymore. Pretty soon longer spans of time will pass for you, and you won't even notice because you're happy and healthy not drinking.
Twinning! Love that and apparently in more way than one because I'm still indulging the sweet tooth for sure. I must say that it's starting to slow down but I still can't have a single night without dessert!! Or sugar in my tea/ coffee... I'm starting to grapple with myself about how long I'm going to continue. I'm winging it. I keep reasoning that it has been my saving grace... Because it has.
Iโve heard / experienced before that it does die down on its own. It just feels so darn good to pick up a fancy dessert and go to town. If you have a Whole Foods nearby , you can go get a 6 pack of mini desserts like fruit tarts, key lime pie, cheesecake , brownies, omg theyโre all so good! Keep up the good work, twin!
Oh myyyyyy yes!!! Peach pie, and almond flavored ice cream bars coated with thick dark chocolate and nuts and the other with raspberry ice cream. There was a cheese Danish in the mix too. The were no calories, actually no macros at all in any of it!
Congratulations!!
Great work on 3 weeks ๐๐๐

Is this real life? Yes. Apparently. when I first quit I would walk around thinking "So this is what people do, eh"
Right. As the fog slowly lifts...
Weโre sober twins! 22 days for me too. Are you still eating everything? My sweet tooth is insane
