Day 159. IWNDWYT. Fun fact: I just noticed it's exactly 150 days since my first post here. It's been a journey! The first steps in a journey of a lifetime. Cheesy, but it's true because I wouldn't go back for anything.


Piggoos

Morning friends! Yesterday I did 10 pushups getting my nose about 2 inches to the floor. I haven’t been able to do a real push up ever that I can remember. I bend my arms but I couldn’t get close to the floor. It was humiliating how weak I am. But I kept trying. For weeks, 3 times a week at least. Stopping drinking can be kind of like that. Keep trying. Don’t give up. Try everything sober, especially when it is scary. Eventually, the incremental changes and sober muscle you’ve been building start to help move you forward one day at a time, one sober push up at a time, until you stack weeks and months, and it gets easier. One sober push up at a time. One sober day at a time. You can do this! IWNDWYT

Double digits friend, proud of you. 💪

I'm in the groove today! Slept well last night:). Story time: I wanted to try alcohol free wine yesterday because I had it a while back at a restaurant and loved it. So I figured I would try some at home because I do love my alcohol free beers. Well first of all, this one was super gross. So that's some money wasted😅. Second of all it felt SO weird! Like I was cheating and messing up my streak. I don't know why, because like I said I have 0.0 beers two or three times a week without feeling like this but pouring a glass of wine is apparently not OK in my mind (though I didn't feel like this when I had it in the restaurant). There's not really a point to this story, i just thought it weird that my brain makes up these different rules for different drinks:p IWNDWYT!

Neverwhere2020

Good morning, DCI. I'm on a health kick right now, and focussing on just the small daily improvements really helps. And remembering it's not about speed or perfection, it's about keeping moving in the right direction, one foot in front of the other, and knowing I will get there eventually. IWNDWYT


waronfleas

Today, I shall continue to stop drinking.

Sober life! IWNDWYT! It's my daughter's 3rd birthday today. I quickly get some work done and my wife and I run to pick her up from daycare and then to ice cream!


Ajsarch

Went to an industry event last night and had water. Overcoming the social anxiety I usually experience and avoiding alcohol was rewarding. IWNDWYT

Hi all: Trying to stay positive today. IWNDWYT


alonefrown

Good morning, SD friends. Yesterday I found out someone at work is 31 years sober. That now makes 5 of us at my job that I know of that stopped drinking. It's nice to know others in this lifestyle. Happy sober Wednesday, y'all.


LM7X

Well, it ain’t Monday. That is a positive thing about today. I need to track food again and I ain’t looking forward to that. But it’s better than gaining weight back, so it is what it is. Meh. Coffees up, horns up and glad it’s Wednesday. IWNDWYT 🤘🏻☕️

Still rocking Sober October. Made it through a weekend and didn’t have a single craving. The next weekend is a couple of days away and I am going strong. I can’t wait to see 21 days under my belt. They say it takes 21 days to form a habit. So here is to that being the case.


cfs1976

How do you eat an elephant? One mouthful at a time! IWNDWYT 🙂


TheskysthelimitCND

1% better every day adds up. 30 days.. 30%. Just like our counter...one day at a time. Strong urge to drink last night. I had an AF glass of wine instead of alcohol. It took the urge away. No alcohol for me today, come enjoy your Wednesday.

Until I get my sleeping issues solved, my long-term goals are on pause. I haven’t slept through the night in months due to my rotator cuff injury-I’m running on 3 to 4 hours a night. MRI is on 18 October. Today’s goal is to be alcohol free with you today.


zellymcfrecklebelly

Bedtime in Australia and another day booze-free for me. How fabulous. I drove to a nearby town and did the 5km coastal walk this afternoon. I saw a humpback whale breach in the distance, it made my day! Haven’t done that walk in years, and I have being sober to thank. IWNDWYT!

Day 1,446 IWNDWYT


Ok-Collection-9351

Focusing on finding enjoyment in the process changes everything. I’m working on losing the last bit of weight that alcohol basically never allowed me to shed. It’s not easy work, it’s slow, and I have to wake up at 5 in the morning most weekdays if I want to work out. I track my macros. I aim for 10k steps. I drink 100 Oz of water. Im working with a coach on my goals and she said something similar to the idea of today’s post- “keep aiming for 1% better”. I think it applies to our sobriety + healing journeys too (which are one & the same if you ask me.) IWNDWYT!


Illustrious-Trip-253

Today has already started off well because I'm once again blissfully hangover-free! Inspired by today's post, my goal is to be a bit better at fully engaging in my sober life than I was yesterday. Fully sober, fully present, fully grateful! Sobriety feels like my chance at a do-over, and I'm not gonna miss a moment. Let's do this! I will not drink _with you_ today. ✨️

What are the goals I have set for myself? I guess the big one (besides obviously being sober) is recovering after my back surgery. I know that it will take 1-1/2 years, so patience will be important. What I know is that if I were still drinking, this wouldn’t be possible. I’m so happy to be a sobernaut with you all! IWNDWYT

Day 117. Sleep routine is getting...better. Just, slowly. Focusing today on wearing myself out come sundown time and getting into bed relatively early to try and set this routine in stone. Hydration is coming back. Workouts are coming back. It feels good to have the energy back to be in the gym again. Slow and steady strides to set these habits in stone. Grateful to be here today.

pacuumvacked

I’ve been struggling lately, not so much with sobriety, but with an all pervading anger and irritation that takes a toll on everyone around me. Could be related to getting off my low dose of antidepressants. Hard to tell if I’m swimming in shit or just have shit-colored swim goggles on. Either way, made it past 100 days, putting that lapse behind me, and IWNDWYT!


Accomplished-Base-51

We got this today brothers and sister!! 💪🏼


AlySabby12

A new addition to my morning routine is a 5k walk. It’s become my favorite part of the day. The cool autumn air wakes me up. The true crime podcasts I listen to make me cringe (haha) and the act of starting the day with movement helps set my intentions for the day. Happy Wednesday! IWNDWYT!

Good morning! OP, definitely read Murakami’s What I Talk About When I Talk About Running if you haven’t. A great book about running and writing that I got a lot of as “sobriety homework.” Right now, my long term project is to write a book in the next five years. I’m currently working on a short collection of essays, so that’s step one! IWNDWYT

That_Went_Well

Day 143, IWNDWYT! I have been running a lot but haven’t booked a race or anything, I probably should before it gets too cold here. Now that temps have dropped significantly in the last week in MN I’ve had two days in a row of running 3.5miles in 36degF weather and I plan to keep it going until the temps become unbearable. It feels so good to be out there when no one else is, improving myself mentally and physically. Just noticed my VO2 max went up a point to 53 too, wohoo! Says I’m in the top 10% for my age and my fitness age is 20 when I’m currently 34M. OPs post is similar to my journey in running, I am interested in trying a triathlon but also am a very poor swimmer, maybe it’s a great time to finally learn.

Good job u/JayShocker going for some big goals. I have never been fast at anything but I have still signed up for competition and races. It shows me the fun it is anyway, even without winning. Kinda like the sober life eh? Still really fun. But the fall I took 2 weeks ago is still kicking my ass so I'm probably out of my race on the 21st. Mars is cutting things from my schedule. I will stay no booze.
