50 days! Goodbye "purple haze"

Hello everyone.
I am 30 minutes away from midnight and my 50th day Tramadol and Codiene free as I type this because I am exhausted and can't stay awake much longer, I've been awake since 4am and had a 9hr round trip drive to London today!
Many people on this site know my story and I just want to thank with every beat of my heart my friends in the forums, and everyone else who has helped me through my dark times! I can't believe it has been 50 days already! Time flies when your having fun and enjoying life again I suppose!
I weighed myself again today, day 1 of detox I was a paltry 9st 6lbs! Day 50 I weigh 12st 7lbs, Tramadol wasn't just a painkiller and anti-depressant, it was a hunger suppressant to me that's why I looked like an extra from an episode of The Walking Dead!!
I'm gonna keep it short and sweet coz I'm nodding off here so again THANK YOU ALL for getting me to this milestone! Each and every one of you are worth your weight in gold!!
A heavy eyed Englishman!
Goodnight and Godbless you all.
Richard
