Hi comrades and welcome to the second weekly improvement megathread!

I am glad to see that there was a lot of engagement in the first megathread and that people were checking in throughout the week.

Same as the last week, here are some ideas for discussion:

  • Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • What would you like to do next week?
  • What aspect of life would you like to improve?
  • 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?

Good luck to everybody with your goals! unity

    This week in my added sugar purge:

    L's

    • ended up buying a pack of cookies that was on sale
    • there's still a lot of ways sugar is snuck into pre-made food (in salsa? really?)

    W's

    • switched from "healthy" breakfast cereal to overnight oats
    • have been doing a good job limiting how many cookies I've eaten (only 2 per day!)

    Not trying to be perfect, so this feels like an overall good week. I've noticed I'm going for fruit a bit more for the natural sugars, although I think cuz the natural sugars metabolize slower so I'm not getting as strong a hit.
