You have a plan in hand and a clear goal in mind --- you will do just fine, Matt. And good for you for jumping right back on plan so fast! Now I know who to call to kick my behind when I am slip-sliding away.



I will watch for your post tonight!

Matt, I am so sorry you are hurting right now. When I feel so, so sad, frustrated, upset . . . I try to journal my feelings or write the person I am frustrated with a letter of how I feel. (and DON'T send it). It is helpful to do it.

Hang in there. Every day is a new beginning.

BIG HUGS!


P.S. - You should get a dog if you can. You won't find a more loyal companion.

So I just got back and man, that sucked. The good things are today was really good food/ exercise wise. I also didn't drink and stuck to the plan of getting there late and leaving relatively early (11pm). The bads news forcing a smile and pretending to be happy didn't work. It takes time and I certainly am not there yet.

Hang in there, Matt. We're here for you, buddy, so keep posting.

One minute. One hour, one day, one week. May your cumulative life experiences and your well-earned victories (and your supportive 3FC'ers) help you forward until the healing of time takes over.

Just ONE good choice a day. Making nice faces when your heart has been ripped out of your chest and stomped on takes alot of strength.

Hang in there, you'll get through this!

Yeah, it sure couldn't have felt good last night, but you did the RIGHT thing --- you were there for the mutual friend and you were there for YOU, eating right and avoiding the alcohol. Give yourself big points for that because you earned them, Matt!
