I had forgotten what it is like to feel good. I felt like garbage for so long. Even when I thought that I felt all right, in reality it was merely a lesser form of misery.

My head is so much clearer. I am feeling lighter from the exercise and improved diet. At least for now I have no cravings.

I stopped at the beer and wine aisle in the grocery store yesterday, and looked down at it. I felt no desire. Only vague nausea at the thought of it. You couldn't pay me to take a drink at this point.

What I must cling to is the horrors I went through in the first five or so weeks of recovery. Alcohol did that to me. It is poison. I cannot forget and I cannot go back. Ever. Life is so much better already. Why would I ever want to?
