Hello comrades and welcome to the second improvement megathread of July!
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?

Greetings to the builders of the Yenisey cascade (of dams)!"
Good luck with your goals! 
Keeping things steady in so far as working out. Results are really starting to show. Had someone comment that I’m looking slimmer. I weighed myself and I’m still in that range of 8-10 lbs lost, but my bellyfat seems like its started to recede quite a bit. I’m starting to see my abs again, although I have a really long way to go before I can see them entirely.
Otherwise my sleep has been all over the place. Same with my anxiety. Might just have to go see someone about it because it just feels so bad. And its not the first time I’ve gone through this. But I’m hoping that if I can’t see someone right away that I can at least do a few things myself to get my mind more at ease.
I am losing weight everywhere except my belly fat, how do you do that?
Btw I am using a free meditation app called Insight Timer, there are a lot of guided meditations specifically for anxiety. I have this one in my bookmarks.
Honestly I have no idea lol. I usually have trouble. Maybe I’ve just found the right combination of diet (I’ve cut down on fatty foods) and exercise (I mostly jog, but I’ve been using the rowing machine and Skierg at the gym quite a lot too).
