No more drugs or drinking? Or kicked a different kind of addiction like no more fast food?

I quit drinking pop last New Year's Eve and am still holding to it. I was drinking almost a 6-pack of pop a day, until I heard that if the average pop drinker would cut one pop per day out of their diet, they would give up in sugar, the weight of a semi-truck tire. That was all it took and I've been pop free ever since. Of course, I've doubled my caffeine intake.

I have been caffiene free for a year now. A week or so ago, I let myself have Mountain Dew b/c I had to get some stuff and done and was tired. Big mistake. It left me wired. I remembered why I gave it up.

Hehehe, nope no pledge of sobriety! I still drink and I still enjoy it! Sorry...a little off topic, but I thought I'd drop in and see what everyone was kicking. Since I didn't have anything I thought I'd express what I wasn't. :)

The only addiction I've struggled with all of my life is food. I've dieted and dieted, but no matter how long I diet, I never lose my desire for the wrong foods, and I never develop a positive attitude about developing a healthy lifestyle.

One of my very good friends has encountered the same issue. What foods are your weakest to stay away from?

I have ben clean for 1 year this month. And very proud of it! I thank God every day for giving me the strength i need to say no. My life is so much better now. All I can say is WTG to all who have helped them selves to stop any addiction.

I had my most recent drink on October 5th 2002. I had finally had enough. It was difficult at first. As time went by each day it got easier. The hardest part was facing everyday without some form of crutch. Everyday I gained a little more strength than the day before. I have been through a great deal of things in sobriety. Amazingly, I have stayed sober. I am glad I stayed at it and did the work required of me. I am a different person today than I was then. I have accomplished more than I ever have. I continue to improve with time. Life is truley better than it has ever been even though bad things still happen. I don't regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it. I don't have to continue to stare back at it either. Time does heal all wounds. I look forward to each passing day but I try to remember to enjoy today. Good luck on your journey. I pray you stay sober for another day. If you can do that you have the key to a lifetime of sobriety. One day at a time. God Bless
