Hello comrades and welcome to the third improvement megathread of June! rainbow-has

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 plans or 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: Let the Chinese-Soviet friendship live eternally!

Good luck with your goals! hexbear-gay-pride

    For some reason that I'm not sure of myself this was the week that finally hit right and I felt like I should start caring for myself again rather than just not giving a fuck and hoping I die in a few years as a result. Last time I gave a shit was probably 2019 but after getting fired and COVID and everything I just haven't cared. I hope maybe I can keep this up for a bit and also help my mother with it as well since we've both been bad influences on each other for a while now.

    I've gone a solid 5 days now limiting how much I eat to 2k calories when I'm pretty sure I normally average around 3k. Today I even stopped myself from just ordering out and rationalizing that it was probably close to my allotment left for the day. Today was more of a struggle though since I started getting lightheaded and ravenously hungry so I allowed myself a bit of chocolate and that helped me last until dinner.
