Well done on 11 days!! It's so hard to quit, especially without alcohol...after a week of mainlining it, which I don't regret because it always helps in the first week of sobriety...I am headachy and fatigued, and dreading the gym.
Quitting sugar and refined carbs does wonders for arthritis! I'll bet you feel better already.
