One of the best tool I got from therapy was learning HALT. Hungry Angry Lonely Tired. These are all triggers and being in one or more of these states is often at the root of wanting to drink. For me, StopDrinking was a good way to head off the Lonely part of that lovely barber shop quartet. Just having the knowledge that HALT is a thing and stopping for a little introspection to see if I was under any of those states went a long way to helping me in the first year of my sobriety.

Hope this helps. You can do this. IWNDWYT.

Maybe try one commitment at a time and then add one in every few weeks? Stopping drinking WILL make lifting and eating healthier easier, but it will start making you healthier NOW. :)

I've read several quit lit books and the one that spoke to me the most was This Naked Mind. It helped a lot to understand what alcohol does to the chemicals in your brain and help break that cycle.

and I meant to say, saying sober a few months is a great success! If you are driving from New York to LA and get a flat tire in Chicago, you don't start back at the beginning. You fix the flat and continue on your journey!

Will power is an expendable resource. It's hard enough to give up one thing, let alone everything.

If you quit once, you can do it again. I found when I first quit it was really helpful to do the daily check in and post about whatever I was thinking. It's not the void of the internet if there are people listening: it's a community.

Take care. You've quit before, so you can do it again. Don't be too hard on yourself.
Exercising is a good stress reliever as well and over time you will get stronger and healthier.
