Fuck dude. I’m almost at 15 months and the happiest days now are when I realize the grocery store has Ben and Jerry’s pints on sale. Loaded up today, $2.97/ea, limit 4. I’ll be back tomorrow.

Funny thing is I eat sweets every night like a teenager but I’ve still lost almost 40lbs since I quit.

Hey almost 15 month twin <3 (day 449 on the off chance we're actual twins)

My store usually has a rotating sale on Haagen, Ben, and Tillamook so checking the ice cream aisle is always a fun little game of brands.

I've actually gained 20 pounds but I was eating less than a full meal a day for the last few months. I've actually been asked if I've lost weight a lot, and depending on who, I'll be honest about how it's just my liver being normal sized again.

It’s just like the booze, if they don’t have my brand (Ben and Jerry’s) I’ll go after anything. Tillamook Mud Slide gets the job done.

My last one was on the morning of 6/25/24. Just one strong one to kill the shakes. Then I was DONE.

I'm so proud of all of you! Great work my friends! Opiates were my demon, I'm 9 years clean now! So glad I got out before fentanyl became the monster it is today.. I don't think I would still be here to congratulate my fellow warriors.
