welcome Ashocktostop - congratulations on your 3 days and I'm sure many more to come. The body is an amazing thing and people have come back from almost fatal illnesses when they finally gave it a chance to heal. Your intake was well above the guidelines and drinking in secret is a serious red flag.
Do you have a plan for continuing sobriety, for coping with cravings, for the times when you most feel like drinking? Keep posting here and you'll find lots of support and encouragement.
As for a positive story, I went from thinking I could never live without wine, to not having touched it for 16 months and the relief has been enormous.
