It was our pleasure Cheezy, let is know if you ever feel like doing it again or if you just want to get away to the country for a visit.
Cheers Bro!
keep it up Cheezy, we're here to support you...
Although, the first week is the easiest, after you get a few months is when it gets hard. You get the "Well, I done good so far, I can treat myself to one." Then you are right back to where you started.
Good Luck

Ultimately, I think there is a lot more that goes into one's health, or lack thereof, than their drinking or divine intervention...I believe I have seriously “dodged a bullet”.

Jacob_Marley said:. It was not a religious comment. Substitute "fate", "reality" or even "providence" for the word "Lord". I'm not terribly religious either. It was just a better visual. It IS possible for every single person, regardless of physical fitness and diet, to drink their livers into a corner ... nevermind the other disease and toxin factors I alluded to above that can contribute to the problem. You are absolutely correct that more goes into health than drinking and luck. But if you are heading into liver failure then that pretty much trumps everything else. It is *astounding* how many functions and systems are affected ... and those negative effects are both cumulative and synergistic. I never knew until I had to. I only made the post to point out: 1) that a person can end up with such problems even if they don't have a lot of other common "problem drinking" symptoms. 2) that early moderation is a better choice than having to give it up entirely ... and 3) that I admire cheezy's decision to take that step. Ok, gettin down off the soapbox now. I've always liked that quote by Hyman Roth ... "Good health -- the most important thing in the world. More than success, more than money -- more than power. " But I didn't really understand it until I got older. Sorry to lapse into "preachy".
