I'm now at 144 days and up till about 2 or 3 weeks ago I didnt real feel any benefit from not drinking as I was recovering from Glanfular Fever and suffering from a great lethargy that decended upon me when I stopped poisoning my body with alcohol. HOWEVER.........NOW I am going to weight watchers ....climbing 30 flights of stairs every week day....walking between 6 and 9 km per day....lost 8 kilos.....and I feel brand new. At first I said I felt 10 years younger but 10 years ago I felt crap. When i am out walking along the beach I feel so damn good I just want to run up to people and shake them and tell them I am high as a kite but common sense prevails because they might not understand and call the men in the white coats.
This feeling I have is tangible - I cant believe I can feel this way without it being caused by ingesting some chemical substance. Took a while but then I realised what it is...I AM HAPPY!!!.....It has been so long since I was free to feel this way that I forgot this state existed. It's a get out of jail free card. This must be how I felt as a kid a million years ago before I started taking my daily dose of poison. I dont feel 10 years younger - I feel 40 years younger and if I could wrap this and sell it on Ebay I would be a million dollars richer to go with the million dollar feeling.
If any of you have doubts and are struggling or feeling tired ...please please hang on.....this is so worth the wait and its so do-able.
