Detox thus far
My last drink was a cheap-ass 24oz can (ok 2 cans) of 12% malt-fruity-crap on Sunday night.
Monday was fine up until the drive home. That's when i wanted to steer in to the poison store and buy a few cans of hooch. One for the parking lot, one for the driveway and a few in the trunk to sneak out and get whenever I felt the desire. I decided to stop in and buy a big bottle of flavored sparkling water and drank it all night.
I worked out 2 hours Tuesday morning and felt great all day. Tuesday afternoon I started getting agitated easily and very short tempered. I prayed alot and just powered through it. I drank water all day and decided to keep hitting the sparkling water as it felt like I was drinking one of those Harder lemonades or Four Loko drinks. That night I sweat like a hooker in church and tossed and turned all night.
Wednesday morning I hit the gym again and felt much better that afternoon. No real cravings or anything. I still drank the sparkling water and kept busy. Cold sweats all night and at 11:00pm I craved a drink sooooo bad. I just prayed, thanked the Lord for protecting me through my prior stupidity and went to sleep after taking a Benedryl.
Thursday: Perfect day. I had energy, great attitude and did not feel the need to crash in the afternoon. I slept like a log and under the covers all night.
Today I feel great and can't wait to thit the beach this weekend.
