From the summer of 2001 to February 2016 I gained roughly 100 pounds by drinking 18-33 cans of beer a day. Me who had always been a lean person and had taken great pride in that. Now I've whittled that 100 down by half with very little effort aside from stopping the beer. Good progress but still a ways to go.

So I encourage you, tonib! Stay sober and you'll get to like what you see in the mirror again. Show alcohol who's boss.

Congrats on day 7 Tonib. One week down, that's a great accomplishment.

Just take it one step at a time, as long as you stay sober, everything else will fall into place. Just remember, be kind to yourself and take baby steps towards your goals. Your weight will come off with some sober time and a little healthy living.

You're doing great!
