Hello comrades and welcome to the fourth improvement megathread of August! 
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 the following 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 us) make the decisions of the 25th meeting of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union reality! Make the bond between the Hammer and Sickle stronger!”
Good luck with your goals! 
I planned on getting back to running in September but I think I’m feeling good enough to start now but I’ll still ease back in. I also noticed my clothes fitting better eventhough I’ve been in a ±5lb yoyo for a few months. All in all I take it as a win
The good days are often enough I can get stuff done.
I’m joining a party. I went to a rally. I’m going to another tomorrow probably. I’ve been reading Lenin (and Holly Madison. Her book is great.) I decided to just go for a walk today for no reason other than that it’d be nice. 2.36km isnt much, and my legs hurt a lot but that’s fine. Next walk will be less hilly I reckon.
I’ve been super tired some days but that’ll probably go away.
Still sober. Alcohol sober that is. Don’t know what my streak is but I think about drinking less often.
I have a long way to go, but at least now I’m getting there. Just need to pace myself to avoid burnout.
Fall semester starts next week. I’m gonna get A’s.
Good things happened that require(d) my attention, so I did skip on a bunch of stuff. Nevertheless, the developments are both important and good.

Things have been rough the past few weeks. my stomach problems have largely gone away but I’m still unsure what the issue was in the first place. It could be something as simple as I caught a stomach bug but there are dozens of other potential things it could be. However since I don’t have insurance I guess I’ll never know.
My body is tired. I helped my in laws move a shitload of antique furniture on Sunday as well as having an outdoor event for work that included hauling ~50lbs of product on my motorcycle on Saturday and then standing in the sun/heat for ~6 hours. On top of my regular job consisting of moving heavy shit all the time. Suffice to say I’m impressed at my bodies strength at times considering I don’t lift weights outside of life. I really wish I had a home gym to lift because I am adamantly refusing to go to gyms anymore.
All that being said, I have maintained my sobriety streak still. I don’t really have any goals besides keep on keeping on. I wish I could pivot to a new job but I honestly feel trapped at this point. Getting out of this line of work feels insurmountable given my lack of education/credentials.
Today especially was a shit show of binge eating and staying up all night. The week in general had reasonable bedtimes but I only walked 2 days, which is a step back.
Went to a party where I had 1 drink, and then 1 impulse beer after I got home. Not really in any danger right now I think, but it’s worth noting.
I’m currently on vacation so my main goal last week was to cuddle my pets and play videogames.
I’m gonna touch a lot of
grassseaweed this week. The sigma grindset continues one week from now, until then I’m vibing
Sober for 3 weeks
Been going for walks more regularly and am trying to eat healthier
Want to get back into lifting and lose weight but I got fucked up by covid for like 4 months and am really anxious about going to a gym now so idk about that
Trying to take care of my skin better
All in all I’m not doing great but I’m improving and I’ve definitely been a hell of a lot worse before
