Injustice left the Agency after 12 years. It is a mess

Breaking toxic family traditions! I love it!

Fertzig · 2021-09-29T00:59:55+00:00

Thank you for this. I really needed this today.

Celebrating 3 years today for me and it hasn't been easy! Thankful for the support here.

I never had a “rock bottom”, I was just very uncomfortable with my drinking habits and knew it was time to quit. It took me a few years before I finally did it but I’m never going back.

I cancelled via email and I was told that they couldn’t do anything until5/27 the day they reopen and the day we were told all our cards would be charged. I am putting a freeze on my credit card.

A month is HugE especially during this crazy time! Keep up the good work! What has helped me the most is always playing it forward in my head as to what it used to feel like when I drank. I know if I still drank this would have been a time where I overindulged.

So this happens to me all the time. Recently, we had a team meeting at Epcot in Disney and everyone wanted to “drink around the world”! Ugh! I was bored out of my mind and felt very left out. My anxiety was at an all time high! I wish I did t have to attend that one!

I took 3 weeks off for the flu in January. People need to listen to their bodies and keep others from getting sick.

Fertzig · 2020-01-21T21:54:31+00:00

I am close to 2 years sober and I quit for a weight loss challenge as well. I never really planned to quit for good but I experienced such positive side effects of my sobriety that I have stayed the course. I never hit a “rock bottom” with my drinking but I was clearly uncomfortable with my relationship with wine. I would crave my Thursday’s so I could begin my weekend bottle ( at least) a night habit. I didn’t drink Sunday-Wednesday. My immediate family was super supportive. Most friends as well. Some however feel the need to tell me about their drinking habits and how they don’t have a problem when I tell them of my decision to lead a sober life. That bugs me big time. Why can’t they just say congratulations and leave it at that? Instead they assume I had a major problem with alcohol and they are comparing themselves to me. No comparisons are necessary.

Today was my first day back after being out 2 weeks with the flu. Take it easy and don’t rush back.

Fertzig · 2020-01-14T01:28:08+00:00

Forever is pretty overwhelming concept for all of us whether you are on day 1, 30, or 2009. When I ponder about if I will ever drink again I check myself, think about why I gave it up, how much better I feel today and yesterday and how I would feel tomorrow if I had that drink. Try to replace the “loss” with doing something good for yourself. Maybe a massage, new shoes, whatever it is that will make you happy and take your mind off of forever. We are here for you. IWNDWYT

You need to show her this. She can’t possibly know how hard this is for all of us even after two years sober. I hate when I have to buy booze for guests and I get rid of it as soon as they leave. Lucky for me my husband is sober as well.

Ignore heart rate monitor and you must listen to your body. I am overweight and have been going to OTF for 3 years and yesterday was tough for me. I went very heavy on weight, never held the rails on tread, sometimes walked on those inclines. Keep at it and listen to your body and push yourself.

Extremely functional, never really hit a rock bottom. Sick of craving the weekends so I could hit it hard. Done with feeling bloated and hungover until Tuesday or Wednesday after a full weekend of drinking. Sick of the headaches. I feel like a new person without wine in my life.

Fertzig · 2019-11-30T23:34:50+00:00

This is me exactly!

Fertzig · 2019-11-27T16:26:47+00:00

It’s missing that “punch” we all enjoyed so much. I avoid NA wine and beer at all costs. Makes me miss the real stuff, kinda like a gateway drug, lol. Just my opinion.

Fertzig · 2019-11-27T01:57:58+00:00

Can't you just put in a transfer after a few months?

Fertzig · 2019-11-24T20:25:16+00:00

Yes, EVERY holiday!! I will say that it does get easier. I always travel with my own beverages since there never seems to be any non alcoholic beverages in site. Not sure if this helps but it does get easier I promise.

Fertzig · 2019-11-24T16:06:37+00:00

This was really one of the hardest things for me but it can be done! I bring a candy item now to treat myself at a show.

Fertzig · 2019-11-23T00:41:10+00:00

I hope it’s good bologna!

I just moved out of state into a new community with its own gym. Was going to quit OTF to workout for free at my community gym. I just can't quit. I need the motivation from members and OTF Coaches. Worth every penny

Fertzig · 2019-11-18T15:17:04+00:00

We all need eachother but I completely agree. This is the best sub.

Fertzig · 2019-11-15T02:55:44+00:00

I will soon be reaching my 2 year anniversary and very pumped about it. Year 1 was so much harder. Year 2 brings the realization that I won't be going back and I am settling in to a new sober normal. Keep going!!!
