I just read the Sun. shoutout. What a great community this one is here in absville. I'm starting another sober week. I can't count the number of Mondays I was hungover in mind, body, & spirit. Sunday was my day to drink. On Monday, I couldn't look anyone in the eye...that's how miserable I felt about myself.

I'm realizing that sobriety is a balance of productiveness & rest. I don't have to stay in a frenzy in order to stay sober.

Be well everyone. I'll check in later. Mary

Happy Monday ABeroooos!

I can relate so well Mary, going shopping with a hangover and just staring at the floor trying to be invisible. blick.

Janice, welcome! we can do it. YOU can do it

Cowgal, it's great to hear the resounding positive energy in your post!

I'm feeling really good and AF on this lovely Monday morning. Went to sleep very soundly after some nice hypno and slept like a rock.

packing for another road trip tomorrow. I'll be packing my 'insurance pills" (antibuse).
since I'll be with drinkers and not sure what those clowns will be up to.
Be well friends!

Cowgal: Gosh! What an inspiration you are! Are you finding that you abs attitude is having a ripple effect? You alluded to it when you spoke about your children last week.

Janice: I love having you here. You're more than welcome here. I hope you're doing well...remember what you said many months ago: "This is not a competition." Go at your own pace.

Deter: You sound great. I think the abs lifestyle is taking root in your consciousness. Be careful around the "clowns" you work with. It's your life you're guarding.

Hello, all!

Sorry I didn't post yesterday, but everytime I logged on and read a few posts, something else pulled me away from the pc.

Good job staying away from the wine Mary and Rustop! Way to stay strong.

Cowgal & Det, you both sound so postive and determined! Wtg.

Janice, welcome. Keep working at it girl. It will click someday.

Feeling so much better lately. Finally feels good to get up and get some things done! Sore from shoveling snow this weekend, but it's a good sore. Needed the excercise that's for sure. Just feeling better is helping my attitude and I'm so grateful.

I'm starting my third Month AB! Yay! Now, if I can just get over these sugar cravings! ODAT.

Good luck all. You keep me going everyday!

Love, Me

doing super Thankful! for sugar cravings have you tried L Glutamine? I take two or three of the MWO capsules, or a rounded teaspoon of the loose powder in juice and it does wonder on sugar and AL cravings.
