I need to brag on myself for a minute.

51. Keep it up.

It can be done, you've found the willpower to get this far and believe me that is the most important thing.

I drank heavily for years, I came back down south after 17 years in bush Alaska, up there if you have a thirst you will drink.

I've been sober for 20 years four months and eight days and luckily I don't have any cravings for the drink.

I also weighed around 275 pounds after shattering my right leg and not working.

I lost 45 pounds in four months after going back to work, it can be done, believe in yourself and remind yourself every morning when you get up.

You are on the right track, you wouldn't be where you are if you weren't.

Keep on fighting.
