I am 42 hours into my quit. I am pleased with how I feel. I have had a headache for a couple hours, but I took Ibuprofen and I am feeling better. I stopped drinking soda the last day I smoked, and I have not had caffeine since.
I am starting to feel like a real person again. I know that it will take some time to get used to not using any intoxicants, or mood enhancers. It has been a decade and a half since I have truley been sober from them. To be honest I do not know when I started drinking soda, but it was a lot longer ago than that. I cannot remember a time when I did not use some kind of drug; even caffeine as a kid.
I digress, my point is that it feels good to be sober from it all, to experience life the way I was meant to. I have turned a page in my life. I am living the way I need to.
I want to lose at least another 60 pounds. I had lost quite a bit last year, and I am feeling more like my old self. I want to start exercising again, and I will probably start after I have been at least a month in to my smobriety.
I do not want to take on too much at one time. I do not want to take any chances. I need this quit, I cherish it. So, therefore I am going to take things slowly.
I am going to start eating healthier and start doing some light exercises along the way. That way I can build up until I am doing my whole list at least once a day.
Anyway, I am ready to get started working on myself. I want to make my life worth living. My new lease on life started at midnight on the 1st of this year, and now I am nearly 2 days in.
