Day 21- I slept 10 Hours!

Day 21 - No Vicodin.  

I slept 10 hours last night!  I only woke up once around 3 am. for just about 20 minutes.  I haven't slept this good since getting off the V.

I really, really feel great.  I am eating like a horse, not good.  I think I've gained 5 lbs.  But this is where the exercise is going to help.

We are taking the kids snow skiing next week.  I love skiing and now I am going to enjoy every aspect of it.  I haven't wanted to do ANYTHING with the kids or anyone else when I was on the pills.  

I truly feel over the 'hump'.  I don't want any one to get discouraged when they see "21 days".  Everyone is different, and some of you may remember that I had a very, very bad reaction to the L5HTP.  

So, Hang in there all of you!  There is life after Codeine!  A much better one at that!

Love you guys/gals!
Michele

I'm getting sleep but I still wake up with that yucky feeling. Restless,kinda cramped up all over and that twitchy feeling. Once I get in the shower and sing a couple songs,shave and have some coffee i'm ok.

Go michele. Girl I am so happy for you. This is good news. After all you have been through.
I want to go skiing but you will have to warm it up a little first. Wait if you do that the snow will melt. Ok i'll take waterskiing instead. Give me some smooth water and a wakeboard and I would be in heaven.Michele I'm really happy for you and very proud of ya.~~John
