jarrylf Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share Posted March 7, 2014 The difference between east & west Well I was more so reffering to living in Detroit, but yea now that you mention it it's weird I havent noticed out here, simply because no matter where you live in the LA area high class, middle class or low, you're going to be around hispanic and they're mostly catholic (feels weird saying that, but the same exact thing can be said for Detroit and black people and baptist LOL) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarrylf Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 Umm y'all trying too hard to lose this game Pick restaurants and stores more wisely And it's no losing lol, you drop the ball you pick it right back up, that's how it is for me anyway, you don't just slurge if you have a weak moment, recognize it, then stop make up for it, and continue the hell on lol .........................I say this because i had an accidental slip myself, & I was kicking my own ass about it, but it's a long process, and you just keep it moving. I was more upset since it's actually my 1st slip ever doing this kind of thing (when I went on a complete liquid diet, NOOOO Solids for 7 days, I made it, when I did a all Vegitarian week, 7 days NOOOO MEAT, and I made it) lol, this was my 1st slip, but this 1 I think is trickier than both honestly.

Bailey Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 there's beers downstairs in a cooler on ice, I didn't put em there.......I think the devil is real. I wonder what Jesus felt 40 days being alone with the devil...tempting him, telling him lies and such. I imagine its a lot like trying to resist things you know aren't good for you. In any case I am on day 8 no drinking, not a drop, senses are heighten, never considered how much drinking sedates you from reality.....its like an escape, a form of escape, from the the reality, from the pain, from your own life I suppose, don't know how long this will last. I believe the temptation is going to get even worst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
