Still unmanageable?

72 days here, one day at a time. This is my first (and hopefully, last) attempt at sobriety. My alcoholism in the last four years took the form of sitting in my messy apartment, drinking wine or beer, smoking cigarettes, watching TV, and surfing the Internet.

Since getting sober it consists of sitting in my messy apartment, drinking Diet Coke, smoking cigarettes, watching TV, and surfing the Internet.

I go to meetings, have a sponsor, am working with him on the steps, and do not feel like drinking, yet not much has changed.

My desire to go to the gym, get out of my apartment and socialize, and do all those things I promised I would do when I stopped drinking is absolutely nill.

Anyone have thoughts? I suppose one can be sober and a lazy **** at the same time. I know these are things I'll need to deal with through the steps, but I'm still working on getting past 90 days.
