Talking 6 Months
Hi all! I hit 6 months of sobriety today. Most of the people in my day to day life don't know that I ever had a "problem," so I wanted to share with people that "get me." 6 months ago I was a sick puppy and I don't know how much longer I would have lasted! Today I am healthy, happier, busy and 65 pounds lighter! (It's amazing what happens when you dump the booze/munchy calories!) Anyway, thanks for all of the support here, and to newbies....keep at it! If I can sober up, ANYONE can!!!!

Carla

WTG Carla!
I'm not losing weight, but I am now putting it on places other than my gut.
