I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I wont' buy a pack if you don't buy a pack! I'm actuallly chewing on straws, it helps!
So is talking on the phone!
And driving!
I have to watch out for those areas of my life.
Can you join him and NOT drink? Like have a seltzer & bitters instead? Just to be out w/him, out of the house? That's what I started drinking when I quit alcohol. It tastes like a drink!
So..DON'T DO IT! If you slipped, you slipped. We alll do w/addictions. I kept slipping for 2 years before I finally stopped drinking for good.
I actually quit smoking before I quit drinking, and I used to use drinking to cushion me so I wouldn't smoke. I'd stand there with a bunch of people smoking and the smoke would waft all over me, smells so good lol...second hand smoke can be a high too so I have to watch that. But I'd be standing there with my drink in my hand and be totally ok with not smoking...well now that i've given up drinking too, I have to watch going to parties with a lot of that going on...people, places and things, etc. Right now I have a chocolate and sugar addiction. I love it. I go to work and just HAVE to have a little something to tide me over. Doesn't matter what, just something sweet. Chocolate is preferable though. You are right, Morgaine, we are always susceptible to addictive substances, no matter how long we've been away from alcohol or whatever. I figure tho...better to eat chocolate than drink or smoke. Going to any lengths and all that ya know?
I skin up for them but don't smoke except for the odd toke.
I get all giggly so quick and they love it.It's their entertainment I think.
I always regretted it after.
I smoke cigarettes. About three a day.Three hundred when attempting to socialise.
It's also about beating on ourselves.Y'know, when you think that you are SO boring now.
That's not true though.
