Hello comrades and welcome to the third improvement megathread of May! There are two more weeks left this month, plenty of time to make some progress.

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any goals for next week?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don't have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

Poster caption: Nations of all the world! (Let's) Reforge the weapons of war into the tools of labor!

Good luck with your goals! unity

    I've maintained my streak on not drinking, I'm up to ~3 weeks. Even longer since I've smoked weed. This may be TMI but I've noticed my hog being way more active, stronger, and full of stamina so that's a huge incentive to keep going. I'm curious to see how my face continues to change. I've already noticed my face getting more angular? Less puffy in general. I've gotten a lot of positive feedback on how I look recently and that's obviously an ego boost.

    My mouth is almost fully healed from oral surgery so I'm just about ready to start running again. I'm still having a little pain though so I'm not gonna push it until I know I'm good to go. I did do a ton of yardwork at my mom's place though and I'm happy with how strong I feel again. I cleaned the gutters and was kind of surprised at how easily I was able to hoist the ladder around.

    The DND campaign I started is going really well and everyone is having a good time even though I'm kinda just winging it week to week. It's all of our first times so we're still getting used to actually playing.

    My only goals are to keep on keeping on.
