    What turned you? Did you "hit" bottom? A serious drunk requires that special push. Yes, I'm nosey. I come from a family of serious drunks.....

    Yeah JH, i was a serious drunk and pill popper,,in and out of institutions,hospitals and jails..had my gut pumped out 3 times in 2 weeks,,jumped in a river and ended up in intensive care..cut a long story short,ended up in a church,gave my life to Jesus,,30 odd years later, i own a car,a license,a house,married to a good wife,,A damn sight better than living in abandoned houses,under bridges or parks,,i also come from a family of drunks,,mother, father, brother,grandmother,grandfather,,,from both sides of the family,,i do not know who is alive or dead,,but i am sober for 30 odd years and that is thanks to God,,that is enough for me..due to my early life i am a bit different to a lot of other people,,but hey as i said,i am alive and sober,,they can take me or leave me as i am...Always nice talking JH..>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<..

    Definitely not. Gained weight the two months my back was out, have more heartburn, and, if possible, am more sedentary.  

    I'm about the same, just a year older, and a bit more do lally


    We are all on a slippery slope now , we have to just enjoy as much life as we can.

    My father in law was that from 60 onwards. He lived to be 92. Keep going Terry, just be more careful what you eat, and exercise as much as you can.
