700 days sober.

Just got back from a week in south Florida where I accomplished yet another goal. Read above to see that I was in a wheelchair not long ago. Abstinence, proper vitamins and exercise have brought me out of the chair and I have now gone months without even my cane. I went bowling a couple months back, that was a miracle.

Anyway, while in Florida I walked the beach about 3 miles daily (no cane, on sand and totally sober). I was a little sore after the first day, but by the end of the week I was keeping up with my partner with no problems.

Praise God for sobriety! I have my health back!!

400 days here.

While not 700, it's, well... 400, innit! ;)

It's harder than you think, and yet, easier than I ever would have imagined 400 days ago.

Symptoms are down to sore feet after a day of running around, cooking dinner, and working in the garden. There's also less me, as I went from 128kg to 108kg in the last 3,5 months.

I had forgotten how it felt to be euphoric, now I remember.

One YEAR at a time....
 
Today marks my 2nd full year of sobriety.

On this date in 2011 I woke up in jail after 20+ years of abusing alcohol. I had lost everything I owned and also my family.

Two years later I have rebuilt my life, remained sober and have helped many others that struggle just like me.

One day at a time, now its one year at a time.

Peace.

This is my first post , and I am not sure I am doing this right, but you guys are an inspiration. I have read your posts, Icehouse, with great interest. Long term drinker has hope.

Keep us up to date on how you go forward Newstown!

Thank you Icehouse. I will. I hope I do as well as you and others are doing. I know all have posted several times about your supplements....benfothiamine, alpha lipoic acid, and so on. Would you mind posting which ones you think are most helpful? I know that is a difficult question since we don't always know. Thank you!
