Hello Everyone, Well it has now been 15 days since I started HSM and I must say I feel great. I have had a few tests put before me and I must say I passed with flying colours. A few of you commented about your cravings for sugar which I have found to be true over the last few days. Nothing a packet of natural Jellie Babies didn’t fix but I should try and be a bit stronger. I went to the pub on Sunday to watch the Mosely fight and copped a barrage of questions as to why I wasn’t drinking or betting on the horses. I spent the afternoon there and am proud to say I never succumbed to either. I have not had a bet for three weeks so that is great.

Corporate Lunch

Well I have just sat through my first work corporate lunch without drinking(part of my job) since joining HSM and I am proud to say I felt quite good and it was interesting the feedback I got from my clients when I explained to them what I was doing.I have on occassions embarissed myself at work functions going overboard with my intake and making a fool of myself. Unprofessional. Today they commented about how good my complexion looked and were very supportive of what I am doing. At swim squad this week I have felt the best in the pool I have ever felt and swimming further than ever.I am enjoying reading your stories and individual experiences. Keep up the great work. Brett

Awesome Sunday Training Session

Well it has been 6 days now and my first Sunday morning. I had swimming training at the pool this morning and felt fantastic. The test was Friday night at the Broncos game but just drank water and felt fine. Most weekends I would have a bet on the horses and if I combined that with drinking it could get out of control and before you know it you have lost $100-$150. Well I can happily say I haven\’t had a bet all weekend and have had all the phone calls this morning from my friends who lost money yesterday. Well its great to read your stories and hear how everyone is going. Have a great week. Brett
