>> Have you heard that alcoholISM stands for I Sponsor Myself ISM... Thought that was funny. > >
May have heard that a few times? Hear alot of great things in the program. It is funny, yet so true: ISM. Yeah, I have been trying to sponsor myself and doing things as much on my own as possible. The ISM is a great point!!
No side effects for you on Lex?? That is great! You are lucky. I had quite a few the first few weeks. Ick. Thankfully, they've all settled now and I have begun to experience the therapeutic benefits of the med.
I think that the excercize thing is a great idea!! I'm a true believer in excercise and it's benefits. Try to work out between 3-4x/week. It takes alot of discipline, yet is so worth it!! I always leave the gym feeling 100% better. I love what it does for me health wise, and what is does for my appearance is just an added bonus. So, wish you the best with it. You can do it! Like you said, just suck it up and stick with it. It'll get easier once you start noticing the beneficial results.
Good Luck and keep postin',

It would be nice just to have a couple, but it hardly ever ends there. Should probably hit a few more 1st step meetings.
