Alcohol Free August
Good to see you back Jen
Well....what a beautiful, no hangover morning it is! It is cool and crisp on the East Coast....it almost feels like fall. I am likely to have a hectic day at the office but feel stronger today. Glad to see everyone doing so well!
Have a great AF Day!Miley

I feel wonderful today!!! Worked my butt off at work but got A LOT done. Never would have happened with a hangover. And then when I got home, I mowed my lawn!!! I know, sounds like a strange way to end the day but I hadn't gotten to the gym today to work out, I needed to release some stress and my lawn was a veritable jungle after being away for so long!!! So, I accomplished quite a lot doing just that one thing. And my dogs LOVe it when I mow because they get to follow me around the yard. For some reason, they really enjoy thatI just won't anymore

OKAY - it was late when I logged on tonight - so I missed Mondays post and it's now Tuesday for me! So happy Tuesday everyone! Tuesday is my favorite day of the week. It's the day good things happen for me. So today I'm going to start a healthy eating routine. I've been eating anything and everything I want for the past 6 newly AF days and I know that my long term success needs the nutritional element. Plus I am to vain to be a AF Heavy woman :H Sorry - just being honest here.
Have a AF August 6th everyone! It's the only one we will ever have so lets make it count!!Put your hands over your heart - and tell yourself that you are going to guard this essence of who you are with everything. Alcohol opens us up to darkness and depression instantly. You choose love today. Guard it by keeping the poison out of your body. It IS poison.

Good Morning My August Friends!
Yesterday was very stressful at work and I had a thought of the damn wine! I came home and took a walk instead. I went to the gym this morning and plan on cooking a nice dinner tonight. If it isn't raining, I am going to weed my garden.
Nice to see everyone doing so well....Have a great AF Day.
PS....I am making the Avacado drink tonightMiley

Tuesday wrapping up. I'm thinking about going to a movie tonight - alone - DH out of town and I just feel it might be a good way to wrap up my first week AF!! In the past drinking days I would never want to go to a movie after I had been drinking the day away. So I'm going to get a bucket of popcorn (ummmmmm - didn't start my healthy eating yet) and sit still for a couple of hours!!
Miley - good for you for choosing to take a walk instead of caving to the beastly call. I think working out in the morning also gives a person a few extra endorphins that may even help late into the day. Nice job planning your triggers out!! Make the Key lime beverage - it's yummy!
Sam - good for you today - and everyday. That's my plan!!
My life - thanks for popping in - happy travels!!
Happy Tuesday evening to you all!

Hi all,
Sounds like everyone is doing a great job finding alternatives to sitting thinking of A.
It's Wednesday morning here for me and I've got up at 7am, unheard of, to make a real good start to my 37 th AF day. I figure like giving up smoking, that all you need is as much AF time under your belt as possible to give you a good chance of success. What it comes down to is distracting yourself for those few minutes every time A is in your mind and then the thoughts become less and less.
Well hope that's the theory as that's my plan, as well as the supplements, which I'm sure help, as I didn't bother one day and felt awful.
Had a couple of really terrible days family wise, but I'm up (7am) still AF and feeling great, so I'm going to take this day by storm and make the best of it.
Here's to AF August.
