Go you :-)!!!! I'll second the trainers - it helps to get them checked out if you can. My knees are bu**ers if I wear the wrong shoes!

Well done, are you still smoking. I smoke and would really really like to quit. Fair play to you on the drinking!!!!

in reply toscamp

no not smoked for 2 months, difference is amazing! the nicotene addiction goes quite quick ,the key is to change your lifestyle to stay stopped !!

That is AMAZING!!! What a transformation! Keep going - this just gets better and better; and when it gets tough (as it will) just come back here, read other people's stuff, post some more of your own stuff, and just generally receive the goodness. Community is g-o-o-d......

Really well done!

How did you give up the drinking? I'd love to be able to do that.

hi, you have to really accept the fact that you have a problem,when you stop drinking its like stopping smoking you realise how much you and it stinks and your eyes open up to the truth !!!

Your achievements are brilliant, you should be very proud of yourself.
