This is a repost of my July 26, 2009 "GAME OVER" post:
Pre-Sinclair: 70-100 units/week
Q at this point, Pre-TSM: Drinking completely out of control -- 3-4 bottles of wine 4-5 nights per week. In the weeks preceding TSM, I was really out of control. I spent at least half of the week hungover and cared very little about doing outside of work, but drinking or recovering from a hangover. My drinking was getting so bad, that I was frequently going into work 2-3 hours late or missing a day of work all together. Had I not owned my own business, I likely would not have kept my job.
20 weeks later (23 weeks less the 3 weeks he was on pain meds): My obsessive craving for alcohol is gone. Looking back at where I was when I started TSM, the contrast in my view and desire for alcohol is so dramatic I am at a lost as to how to put it to words. Most of the time, I have only an occasional, fleeting, desire for alcohol. The other times, the craving is such that it is easy to choose to drink or not to drink. I no longer feel like I just have to drink. I have quite literally gotten my life back. I feel healthy again, alive, and just plain good!! Looking back 5-6 months ago, I have no idea how I survived the way I was living. It was madness.
Q's Long Term Goal: We'll see where it goes. I'm leaning towards being mostly abstinent, but well see. Bottom line is I will continue to follow TSM regardless of where I ultimately end up.
I will forever be greatful to Dr. Sinclair and Dr. Eskapa. THANK YOU!!!!!
