I think that it is wonderful that you have submerged yourself into the program. The Steps work when they are followed up by vigorous action. Although I didn’t work them as fast as you, I think I was where you are by 90 days at least (I really can’t remember now). I was told to get with it and work what I could to the best of my ability. Anything I didn’t get on this round I could always do again. The most important thing at the time was to “Just Do It!” I was told that God rewards honest effort, not wishful thinking so I needed to get my rear in gear! The reward I got was contented sobriety and isn't that essentially what each of us really want?

Good luck and let us know how you are coming along in the journey… I’m really interested.
