Hey everyone! Hope all are hanging in. I’ve been out of the loop of late. The bad news: have had some significant & ongoing social struggles/issues over the last few weeks. Luckily, I have a tight circle of 2-3 friends that I now use as a sounding board. The good news: still substance & AF....today is day #252. I’m also…

This. It’s full of zealots, but there are just as many of us “non-zealot” types. Hell, I’m agnostic and yet I still greatly appreciate what the program has afforded me. To me, the fellowship has been key above all else.

@hollyscherer1125: welcome to the group. Drugs are a big part of my story as well. The struggle vs drugs is very similar to the struggle vs alcohol, in my opinion. Hope you stick around. @vermontrebecca6929: thx for the podcast recommendation. I love my podcasts in the gym. You (or anyone else) have any other recs in that…

Congrats @kevinrfletcher and @Ed_Zilla 👍👍

Thanks to everyone for all the kind words! Wishing everyone a happy and AF Easter 🐰🐰🐰 I’m hitting some brunch, trying to figure out a workout (my gym is closed today), and watching some NBA later. Here’s to some holiday rest & relaxation!

199 days AF for me. Since you are my peeps, thought I’d share my own minor success news, rather than post elsewhere. Finally decided mid-Jan of this year to do something about my sloth-like lifestyle. I’d still like to get to single digit BF before it’s all said & done....have some work to do still before that happens. But…

This one is great, too. Highly recommend.

Well said. I usually go with the “I’m taking it easy tonight” approach. What I’ve found along the way is that the far far far majority of people couldn’t care less if I’m drinking or not.

I’m starting The Goldfinch tonight. Hope it doesn’t disappoint.

I hear you there. I’ve been making crazy strength gains in the gym the last 3 months. Although some of that may have been due to me not going to the gym during my run of debauchery 😂

Got my 6 month chip this week 🙌🙌

Is he not supportive of your attempt to stop?

You’re exactly one week ahead of me👍 I hit 200 on 4/21 (hopefully)

@Ed_Zilla: 😂 I have no hate for the Cardinals....they’re just not my Reds. Hopefully I’ll be able to catch some of them again tonight. @lagoscarrie: what book are you on now? Leisure reading is something I’m trying to get back into also.

Happy Monday night to all. 180 days AF today for me...will have 6 months on Wednesday, if all goes as planned. I don’t post much, but appreciate everyone’s insight. I’m laying on the couch with my Diet Ale 8 watching my Cincinnati Reds. ⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️

172 days AF today. Made it to a basketball watch party last night. Didn’t drink, but did cheat with A LOT of pizza. Gotta live a little 😜

I’m in. 5 months for me today. Here’s hoping for another 3👍

Ginger Ale with lime 👍

I’ve learned in my 44 years that what someone thinks of me is none of my business. Shrug it off. Live your life and let them live theirs.

104 days for me, alcohol & substance free.
