A little over 3 weeks in, and staying sober has been surprisingly manageable so far. I expected much worse, like bad cravings, mood swings, or carb attacks lol. No, I’m starting to relax into this, which means I’m a bit less proud and excited about being sober. Have to make sure I’m staying pumped, so I will keep reading and posting. Also every week I’ll treat myself with a gift of sorts. Got myself some Uggs last week. I wanted them for years, but who needs Uggs in Florida? Next week I’ll buy myself an electric kettle to support my new tea habit, and who cares that it clutters up the counter? So I’m trying to spoil myself a little more than usual haha. Have a great day you all :kissing_heart:

That’s a great idea to treat yourself. I’ve been drinking a lot of tea too to distract myself. Dandelion tea promotes digestion and liver health. It also helps with losing weight. I have a fatty liver from drinking excessively which caused me to gain weight. Apparently it works by inhibiting pancreatic lipase, an enzyme released during digestion to break down fat. Definitely recommend if you haven’t tried it! Have a great day!
