I haven't visited this site in 3 or more years. What brought me back today is that I have a couple of friends going through the process and I wanted to share my journey with them so I referred them to this site.

I've been sober since February 1, 2009. I drank 3 bottles of red wine every day for 3 years. Sometimes, after the 3 bottles I would drink vodka or gin. I gained 70 lbs. from drinking. Once I quit, I quickly lost almost 50 lbs. Now, I have to get back on track and use my tool to lose. I want to start with 15lbs....but will take baby steps and do 5 at a time. Once I get down 15lbs. I will another 5 and so on.

I'm down a total of 10.2 lbs. -- This is very exciting! I haven't seen weight loss in 2 yrs. I'm 4 yrs out and started to plateau then gain 2 yrs after surgery.  It feels great to finally be on the losing side again!

1/31/08-  I joined a Back on Track class few weeks ago. I've lost a total of 8.8 lbs so far. I had gained about 50 lbs back and thought I was doomed for failure. NOT SO!  The tool is still there!  And it STILL works!
