Things have been so busy i keep meaning to come on and do an update but keep skipping it! But here i am! Things are going great! I have not had a drink for well over a month now and it feels great! my body feels younger then it has in years and my head is clearer then i think it has ever been!
These feelings just promote the want & drive to keep going on this new journey i have set for myself, the journey of freedom and success!
I want to talk a little about how my body feels younger and my head feels clearer!
For years i had very little activity in my life, walking to and from my car was about as active as i got most days, i always new it was bad, and occasionally tried to increase it but never managed to do much more then a few days then fall back into the routine of slackness, i'm lucky in the sense that i have not had a huge problem with weight so that was another reason in my head not needing to exercise more.
But that has changed, for the past month i have been doing push ups, squats and sit ups on a daily basis, I've also been walking every other day, and staying active on the weekends in the garden and playing with the kids. It feels great to be active, and i feel as if the drinking was what was holding me back, my goal is to keep up the active lifestyle and slowly increase my workouts to be more intense and rewarding in gains.
My head feels free, i am no longer arguing with myself about drinking, and boy has it released a huge amount pressure and saved a hole heap of energy! The decision not to drink is now an automatic one most days, and it doesn't get a second thought, this 2 months ago seemed impossible as every day i was fighting and arguing myself as to why i shouldn't drink, but giving into the compulsion by the end of the day! To have that head space back feels great, and clear! My memory is working better and my task list is getting done alot more efficiently & effectively. My goal is to learn and read as much i can every day, and to start setting my alarm earlier to allow morning time for myself, to fit in things like more intense workouts as above etc.
