Your doing great and keep it up.
Just have in mind and prepare yourself a new goal.
​Reaching 90 alone doesn't solve your addiction.
Once we reach 90 the anderline starts to fade.

​Good luck and don't forget to celebrate. you deserve it!!

Thank you!
Yeah, I'm kinda apprehensive of what the coming days/weeks will bring. (The drag of Monday morning...)

Gotta stay vigilant.

The furthest I've ever made it (I look forward to writing this line every day now...)

Here's a line that came to me from a past life as I'm standing just a wee few hours away from 90 days.

You know that feeling you get when you're standing in a high place... sudden urge to jump?... I don't have it.



Yeah, neither do I.
Baruch Hashem for that.

LOL I totally do...

Friendly advice, don't jump.

There's nothing meaningful down there. Only the longing to be where you're at now.

Mazel Tov !!! 

On reaching 90 days

May Hashem help that this should be a foundation to build further.

It looks like this thread is going to be one of the successful ones, just seeing how you’re getting better and better.

Hatzlacha !!!

90 days

Did I just write "90"?!

I just started another thread where I posted some things that I learned in the last three months. I hope to update that thread as I gain more clarity on this subject while keeping this one as a journal of sorts.

I guess the allure of the wall of honor was just way to tempting LOL.

How are you celebrating?

91 days
The furthest I've ever made it (I look forward to writing this line every day now...)

Back to school, work, or wherever your drag is.

The celebration was kinda lacking.

The wife was feeling under the weather, so we ordered in.
(Oh, by the way, I shared my journey with her on Shabbos.)

I have a theory that restaurants have a special team that makes sure that every order should be missing some random items.

What good is a straw without a drink? I'll tell you; it's as good as a sandwich without the sauce/dressing.

Does anyone here have inside info on how restaurants choose what to omit?
Is it random?
Is it based on research?

Ubereats refunded half of the money, but I'm still hungry.
I didn't have these issues with the tuna sandwich.

More like the sauce without the sandwich.

Mumbling to himself:
Thought you'd be able to slip that in and get away with it, did you?

Yes BH. It was received pretty calmly. (Well, it was packaged and presented well too.)

What I said, how I said it, and why I felt the time was ripe is a topic best held in the safe confines of the BB forum.

Whenever your ready we'll be waiting...for that and the storyteller by Grant. Talking about the storyteller, I think it's time for another reminder...
