Stupid body, why do you become an emotional wreck when you are trying to be healthy!! Day 15 though, still haven't had a drink so that's a positive

Going through problem sleeping phase at the moment but I'm already taking a tonne of vitamins so I'm not getting more!! Sooner or later I'm going to crash I hope!!
Hope everyone has a great day and we are 3 days into AF June woohoo!

Tell me about your super strict diet - maybe I'll join you.

Well, last time I dropped 3 dress sizes in 6 weeks!! It seems cutting alcohol out makes a difference too but at he time I was desperate for a drink so I would skull booze and not eat but I'm not going there this time!!
No processed foods, no sauces, only salt and pepper for flavour. 2 fruit in between the main meals and some crackers, only 2 at a time, normally morning and afternoon snacks with the fruit.
Basically get rid of sugar, I've read some good books on how sugar is what puts the weight on, when you cut all the sugar and processed foods out you realise how much is used in everything we eat!!
At this stage I'm still feeling bloated but it's probably me being self on scions because there's no way I feel as bad as I did my first week AF!!
Let me know if you want so e more info on books

That's so good to read bcp!! I guess it's just a matter of patience then!! I'm dreaming of it falling off overnight lol!!
You must feel AMAZING!! That's so much weight to lose in a short time and with little effort!! I definitely notice the weight would pile on when I was drinking my wine, oh the glory days!!!!
I looked around today as I walked to work and realised that we all have our addictions though, food is another one!! Learning to cope when you don't smoke, can't drink and you stick to a healthy food plan rather than gorge on sugar, pizza, fried foods...... OMG! It's tough!!!

Feeling tired! Yay! Finally I might be adjusting!
It's funny how something little can male your day though, my boyfriend send me a text out if the blue to tell me that just because he doesn't message or call me everyday doesn't mean he doesn't care for me, I thought that was a thousand times better than a present and it's just cheered me up and helped me to keep going and stay positive I'm going to bed happy now!
Night everyone! Have great evening/ morning xo

OMG time is flying!! June 6 already!! I'm feeling good, I'm refusing to weigh myself but I'm remaingin confident the weight wi;ll start coming off any day now, my clothes will be my weight loss indicator!!
Yeah, sometimes I'm having fleeting moments of, seriously I'm going to be able to have a couple of drinks yeah..... then I remember I really need to remind myself how bad I felt and how depressing it was to be drunk!
Good times ahead for me happy days peeps XO

Hey everyone!! I'm so excited!! I'm day 21 today!!! I couldn't have done it ith out checking in here everyday and being inspired a d touched but I know the battle is only beginning or me, I are many more tests to overcome but that's why I'm going to stick close!!!!
My sleep is so deep now it's fantastic!! I am inspired again, spend hours searching through craft sites or ideas to decorate my home and can't wait for my boyfriend to come home again and see the change in me and our home I'm actually glad he works away, I need time to myself to get through this without confusing him with mood swings and emotions that have nothing to do with anyone except me and me addiction to alcohol!!!
Here's to day 21 being gorgeous because this time 3 weeks ago I cried in my doctors office begging for help because I was so ashamed of the drunk I had become!! Thanks doc and thanks universe for picking me up and guiding me xo
