    Thanks so much for all the encouragement guys, Today marked Day 46, I still have a long way to go. The drinking is still a major problem for myself and I have started contacting AA phone services!

    End of Day 54 start of Day 55...

    Incredibly difficult day for me... Didn't gamble which is a positive also did a big gym session but starting to feel the pinch again toward the end of the month with the amount of debt i've been paying off
