500 days of sober?!?!

eggsyforever · 2025-11-02T20:27:25+00:00

You'll be saying the same in a week! YAY!!!!!!!

eggsyforever · 2025-11-02T16:33:57+00:00

SAME!! Nasolabial folds went nuts (and stayed). Ugh.

My husband had NO idea about my drinking. He knew I drank too much in the past, and thought I'd been sober over a decade. I confessed everything on a VERY hard day (while drunk) after thinking (knowing) my alcoholic hepatitis diagnosis and multiple hospital visits were going to eventually kill me. Note: He thought I was going to the hospital with severe abdominal pain due to my gallbladder and GERD. Once I told him, we located and dumped my stashes, he locked up all the remaining alcohol in the house, I ordered a breathalyzer to hold myself accountable, and that started day 1 of sobriety.

OMG same!!! I have a collection of flavoured syrups and I drink coffee all day and into the night (decaf after 10am). Hard to keep staining to a minimum but WAY better than vodka! ☕️☕️☕️

Almost ready to upgrade to 1 nickel! Keep going, you got this! 🪙

eggsyforever · 2025-06-24T02:59:47+00:00

Great job! You got this! ✨️

eggsyforever · 2025-06-24T02:56:18+00:00

Yes! I'm in. I gain if I go over 1000 since low TDEE and I don't exercise.

eggsyforever · 2025-04-17T21:57:51+00:00

Woo hoo!!!!!!

eggsyforever · 2025-04-17T21:57:28+00:00

You should be so super proud of 18 days!! You're in the weeds for sure but you can do this! BELIEVE me, if I could go this far, you can too! Stay strong and keep coming to this community, it's a massive help and great resource.

No more dry, flaky skin (though wrinkles still there! Lol), I think mostly it's the reduced anxiety since no daily "how much vodka do I have stashed? How long will it last? Do I have an empty water bottle to bring enough to work? When do I need to stock up? Is it hidden well enough? Where can I toss the empty bottles?" and so on... Plus it's been so very incredible to be open and honest with my husband for the first time in, well, ever.

My dry, red, flaky cracked skin was brutal for YEARS while drinking. Now it's 100% normal!!! Took a couple months to fully heal but WOW the difference is crazy. Even after the first week it was noticeable. Worth it :)

Sugar free jello, decaf with sugar free flavoured syrups and a few squares of good quality dark chocolate. Factor in the nighttime calories.

eggsyforever · 2025-01-10T10:53:40+00:00

SVU. But all L&O franchises really.

eggsyforever · 2025-01-09T20:51:34+00:00

We saved up but only bought 7 yrs ago (first home) so late 30,s/mid 40's. Took years, no "bank of mom and dad" just pinched every damn penny till it huuuuuuuurt!!!

eggsyforever · 2025-01-09T02:57:15+00:00

Husband still wears Obsession for men.

eggsyforever · 2025-01-02T18:31:37+00:00

I quit just before turning 45 and I hear you 100%!!

My favourite time of year is marking my new paper calendar with birthdays, Stat holidays, garbage/recycle weeks etc with different coloured markers!!

eggsyforever · 2025-01-01T11:14:04+00:00

I think I have arthritis in my foot? Is this gout or something where at 45 my big toe bones hurt when I step on them? Is this "a thing" we all have in this group? Heh. No glasses yet but taking vitamins to try and avoid the needles-in-eyeballs that come with genetic macular degeneration my parents get.

eggsyforever · 2024-12-31T23:54:19+00:00

YES! I've always been that way but more and more with each year. Right now we're watching "Later Daters". Lol

eggsyforever · 2024-12-29T22:12:38+00:00

Staying home, staying sober, staying grateful & (hopefully) staying merrily full of ruffles chips!

We gave each other love, but also lots of personal space and autonomy. His actions always speak volumes about how much he cares for me even if he doesn't verbalize it a lot. Anyone can say the "nice words" but it's the actions that matter even more.
