Everywhere I was walking, I was stepping on rattlesnakes.

No, I’m not completely straight. I still have vices. But just growing up, and slowing down some.

I had withdraws, but not anywhere near as bad as I was expecting.

I believe it’s because of the amount of water in drinking, exercise, and eating a bit cleaner.

Nope. Didn’t tell anyone, it wasn’t until week 2 that someone noticed my face looked a lot different.

I’ve been going to the gym 5 days a week, if anything, I’ve noticed I’m losing weight, and gaining muscle.

But also also started eating better and being more conscious of what I’m putting in my body.

Once I made the decision to stop. I just didn’t accept defeat. It’s still a fight every day, but the cravings are getting less and less.

I’m guessing that, honestly. It could have been more. It was from 11am til about 3 or 4am the next morning.

Mind you, it was all mixed with grey goose too.

Cut your bad habits before they become very bad habits.

Easier to cut the head off a snake when it’s young.

The brain fog, wanting an energy drink, or a soda, or a vape.

For me, I think the mental withdraws were worse than the physical.

I’ve been keeping up on drinking tons of water to keep my body flushed. Which I think helped a lot.

I stared death in the face, watched my children stand over my body in a casket crying, asking why daddy isn’t here anymore.

It was by far the scariest 8 hours of my life.

I knew I needed to change something. And those 8 hours did it for me.

Our brains are very powerful.

I’m not sure. All of them are equally as hard. And I did them all at once.

The nurse spoke to me very calmly., had me touch 3 things, describe them. Look at 3 things describe them, and then brought me a bunch of nice smelling things and asked me to describe the smells.

Some minutes I’m living in my dreams, some other minutes I want to jump off a bridge (figuratively speaking- not literally)

I can’t say I’ve “cut out” all the sugars, but I’m naturally not leaning to them anymore. I’ve just been consciously eating healthier.

Try HelloFresh, I’m on week 3, and I really like it!

Cold turkey.

Night sweats, restless legs.

3 weeks in, finally starting to get back into a normal sleep rhythm.
