Book Reviews of Seven Weeks to Sobriety: The Proven Program to Fight Alcoholism through Nutrition
Book Review: "A desire to stop drinking"
Summary: 5 Stars
If all it takes to quit drinking is a "desire" and "willingness" I would have remained sober years ago, saved thousands of dollars, wouldn't have put my loved ones through hell, and perhaps would be further down the road to being a "contributing member of society." Why shouldn't "working the program" include physical well being too? This book has opened my eyes and I'm going to give it a try. I've been sober for 39 days as of today, and I've had no cravings for alcohol...that is by the Grace of God. However past experience has taught me this isn't enough. I was tested for hypoglycemia when I was pregnant with my son 22 years ago. The tests came back positive, however I don't recall being told anything other than to eat three square meals a day. I also gained 70 pounds! I don't believe that diet alone will keep me sober, but if I can feel better physically when sober, my chances of remaining abstinent will make life far more enjoyable. I'd love to quit taking Prozac (with my Dr's assistance) and I'd love to sleep through the night and feel rested without the aid of a sleeping pill. I've needed help in both these areas even while experiencing eight years as a "recovering alcoholic." I'll be in recovery for the rest of my natural life...that's okay and if I feel better by adding suppliments I'm all for it! Of course I've "felt better" without the vodka, but the chance of feeling even better gives me more reason to stay sober, and hope for being sucessful in my recovery. I don't want to die drunk and anything that will enhance my sobriety is sure worth it's weight in gold! I'm not on a "pink cloud" I've been there, done it. To be honest I'm scared to death of this disease. It's the only disease that wants us dead, and at this point the disease has the upper hand. Thank you, Joan Larson!
