Great job Bizi! You are ready for this and before you know it, the desire to drink will slowly fade. Especially when you start feeling better and drop that weight. I love to eat so carry extra weight around my gut also. You willl eventually start sleeping better also. So much to look forward to. The vaca will be challenging but you will feel so much better.

I hope you don't have an episode. Watch for symptoms and call MD if needed, to prevent this if possible.
I also titrated off of clonopin. sleep was poor during this period.
