1.
Nine months sober today!
2.
Today is the day this little lady becomes my daughter. Happy adoption day!
3.
Today my wife is officially under 200 lbs and I was finally able to do a chin-up for the first time in my life.
4.
I made pizza for the first time on my own today! It may not seem like much but I couldn’t even eat or have the energy to make anything, and look at me now!! Making pizza! I’m very happy with myself.
5.
The first number on my scale has been a 2 for the past 21 years, but not today.
6.
14 months sober from opiates. There is hope. Lost all of my “friends” when I stopped using, but found more elsewhere. We do recover!
7.
I’m proud of the progress I’ve made to be healthier (2018/2020).
8.
When I was born, the doctors told my parents that I wouldn’t live past the first year due to a heart condition. Today I turned 27 — here is a picture of me with my best buddy.
9.
After 70 years of neglect, my dad decided to start taking care of himself. He’s lost 75 lbs this year and I’ve never been prouder of him.
10.
“The bearded guy who usually sits here of late is working this morning. First job since losing everything :) Many thanks to those who helped and/or smiled!”
11.
This is my change after about 13 months! Down 50 pounds!
12.
This was the exact moment I was told I passed my dissertation defense and earned the title, Doctor. Haven’t had much to smile about this year, but this one did it for me.
13.
After not seeing my grandparents for months, they finally figured out how ’to work FaceTime.’ This was my grandpa’s face when he saw me.
14.
I don’t have friends to celebrate with, but I haven’t smoked a single cigarette since New Year!
15.
One year ago I was in such a deep depression that I genuinely could not see a future for myself. Now, I have bought my first car, signed a lease for my first apartment, and have a great job where I am surrounded by wonderful people. I love my life, and I’m glad I stuck around.
16.
It’s my cake day today, so I thought I’d share that after being let go from my dream job last year due to COVID and being unemployed for most of 2020, I was able to turn my life around and I bought my first house this week.
