28 days to change my life

29 replies

Pearlington27 · 11/04/2026 21:39

Starting today I am going make a number of small daily changes to improve areas of my life that I am not happy with. My relationships, drinking, exercise, self-care and diet are all areas that I need to work on.
Today I am feeling particularly fragile after having too much wine last night, after 3 weeks of not drinking at all. I worry that I behaved like a twit, and I have terrible anxiety about it all, as well as an awful headache and hangover (which I deserve).
I am not expecting a miracle but I am hoping small changes over next 28 days will establish good habits to help me feel better about myself.
I will do at least one thing from each area everyday and report back here daily to keep myself accountable.
Anyone who would like to join me is very welcome.

Thank you @Pearlington27😬
So my main concern is my diet. I’m vegetarian and eat nothing but rubbish. Need to fix this.
Need to drink, I never drink anything.
Need to get fittter/excercise.
Need to declutter my house. It’s shocking.
Day one starts for me tomorrow 😅
