Hello, all! 6 months sober!!!
Congratulations
🥳💪
Well done🎉
Wonderful!❤
Way to go!!!! 🎉
One week sober... Been a rough one no sleep no meds just vitamins and lots of food. Still made it to work every day but it got sketchy a few times with the random blurred vision and dizziness. I'm never touching that garbage again. Finally getting my sanity back, I drank a lot for a long time every day
Thank you for your videos!
I'm right there. 4 weeks zero alcohol. I've been a heavy drinker for 50 years. This is quite strange. I've never been sober for long.
@@starboy1100well done !!!!
Right there with ya, yesterday was my first Friday. Today is day 8 and it's definitely a little harder than last Saturday. I think some of it is because I am so sleepy today.
Congratulations and good luck to your continued sobriety
I'm sober for 50 days today 🎉. What a difference from 50 days ago. This morning I was up a 7am. I went swimming, running, cycling,the gym and finished off with a short 1 mile walk, all before 12pm. Ive now made a healthy lunch before I start gardening. Stay strong everyone
Brilliant 😊
How is it going brother?
Fine, 9 weeks today
@@garrybuxton4483 I made it to 9 weeks once , hopefully linger next time
@@reynosa361ify hope you are well, I'm 12 weeks now
6 months sober today❤
Thanks for the video Jae! Day 520 sober today. Also day 126 nicotine free.
After 30'ish years of binge drinking to accompany workaholism and chewing Copenhagen and smoking Marlboros for 45 years: Sober now at age 56! Can't remember ever feeling better.
Stage II Emotional sobriety is happening! At first I was PISSED OFF at everything! There is thankfully some emotional serenity and a much more even keel than before.
Leaves me with a great feeling of: The best is yet to come! Huge thanks to my savior Jesus! Surrendering to win daily is part of my program.
Congrats!
That's great!
Day nine for me after drinking heavily for many years, especially since the pandemic which hit me hard. Your early videos have been my daily pep talk so far. Thanks for the support!
Same! Newly sober twins 😉
@@catherinelussier1559 Well done Catherine!. I'm loving it. Better sleep and clearer head already and making much better use of my time. I'll look out for you as new videos go up. Keep it up!
Day 4 for me.. trying to stay busy to avoid the “boredom drinking” I have been accustomed to.
To all the newbies trying to quit .. 3 years here you can do it and I promise you’ll notice an incredible difference. Hang in there guys . Thanx Jae
Keep that positive momentum going. Lucy
Newbies. Cute. I'll have 38 years sober in a few days. You are right though it's not easy but it can be done. Basically, you don't drink no matter what. Congratulations on 3 years.
Trying yet AGAIN 😅
7 days and feeling great!
Keep going and enjoy the journey!
You can do it!💪🏼💪🏼
Keep striving to improve yourself
Very few if any do something perfect the first time trying
I was on the same boat kept falling but this time is different I got lots to loose to just fall back.
21 days sober!!! I am a heavy drinker from youth… 😔 After 20 years of hurting myself 😞 I’m breaking the cycle!! This may have saved my life!! This last Sunday there were severe wildfires that forced us to evacuate. This happened around 2-3 pm on any other day I’d have been pretty buzzed by then on a Sunday…
Because of my sobriety I was an asset to help my family evade the flames rather than a liability. I praise Jesus for changing my life. Anyone who is struggling please stay strong and understand LIFE IS BETTER SOBER!!
Stay strong 💪 stay sober!!
I can't forget to thank Jesus for seeing me through this
For the first time, I am serious about staying sober! I did the Sinclair method and it took 8 1/2 months to get to exctintion. Big difference in my sobriety because I simply forgot to drink. I like this channel because it is so encouraging about living sober. Thank you ❤
I also found out I had pancreatitis while sober. I got a GI infection and everything collapsed. I had to take supplements for a couple of months because I couldn’t process any food. And while I could blame the infection, I surely made things worse with my drinking 😅 thanks for reminding me of this ❤
The first three months were hard, then it got gradually easier with ups and downs. After a while sobriety is the new norm and it's a thousand times better. The meditation book called 30 Days to Sobriety by Harper Daniels was helpful for me.
Stay the course, good things will come, I’m working on my journey a step at a time, so days might be easy or hard, but life is so much better with out alcohol/drugs.
Love this channel! 5 months sober!
I'm celebrating my 9 month sober today!!! My health is far more better than a year ago and I look younger now. My mind is so f***ing focused that I have started studying at my 54 yo. Sober life is so good!!!
Off topic: You, Jae, you have some unique genes that make you look like a wild version of Keanu Reeves and, like him, you don't age!!! It's unfair for us who look like a grandpa since we were in our 30s!!! (Just kidding, it's a great change and thanks for sharing)
Once again Jae, thank you for all your experience, strength, and HOPE. You are always in my thoughts 💭 and prayers 🙏🏼 I am SURE you are making a positive difference. Absolutely 👋🏼
Thank you for your prayers 😁🫂🙏
Thank you Jae. Very good points and everything you say is 100% true. Thanks for the pep talk… I needed it… after 527 days AF i still have my mental battles. I told my brother the other day that I dont miss the liquid it’s just the things that come with the liquid. Like the bar atmosphere, fun the laughing and just the numbness. I’ve lived my whole life drinking so even after 17 months it’s going to take some small mental fights. You videos help a lot.
23 days sober and working my way up to walking 5 miles a day! Up to 3 now and it’s actually a pretty good endorphin high, especially if you can do it outside. Probably helps getting the fat out of the liver as well. Anyway, I’m just taking it one day at a time. Much aloha and mahalo Jay! 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Great job! I'll be adding walking to my daily regimen as well once I get my energy back.
Thank you for making these videos! They really help keep me (and others, I’m sure) on track!!❤
Day 21 for me! It hasn't been easy. I've been filling my time with going to the gym again. I swim, do classes at my local YMCA and hike with two of my best friends. I wake up now with purpose, every day!!! Jae, your videos are truly a godsend! ❤️❤️ Thank you for doing what you do! 😊
12 days 16 hrs
Go, go, go!!!
Keep up the good work
Day 153! My blood pressure is soooo much better, I’m not taking meds for it anymore.
To be honest I have a channel based on addiction, and I've seen so many people out there and other channels basically, I could tell they were using while making videos and saying they were sober, you I can honestly look at and from day one to now can straight up say that you are an honest person that is completely sober I'm proud of you dude you came a long way❤❤
Jae, you look incredible. I am amazed by the before and after. When I started I actually put weight on. I’m not into sweets but started ripping them down every night. Luckily that ended😃
Day 11 sober after 3 years of drinking half a litre of whiskey a day. I've just been calculating the extra calories I've been consuming, with the juice chasers around 1,500 a day just from the booze! Looking forward to the weight loss over the coming months. I've cut out processed foods as well.
Trying to be the best version of myself for at least once in my life before I kick the bucket.
I think I’m finally gonna do it this time.
I absolutely have to stop drinking.
Congrats on embracing sobriety
Im into the six mark month now. I tried a non alcoholic plant spirit today by 3 spirits and boy did it make me unwell. I think even if i did try and have a drink my body would just reject it so quickly. Great video as always Jay. Thank you so much!
No sore stomach after i eat
no caffine for ten hours before bed lol. That will be more of a challenge than the alcohol.
Thank you Jae. You are a treasure. I count on your videos when I’m feeling a bit mortal. The “I’ve proved I can be sober so maybe I can have one or two” temptation has raised its head recently. So far, so good. Ten months and 2 weeks sober. And yes, the benefits are adding up all the time. Thanks again.
✅BENEFITS!
Almost 90 days sober and now everyone tells me I look so much better. It’s amazing.
Thank you for providing this support! It is resonating and helping me on this sobriety journey… 5 days in. Thank you🌺
Made it here first 🥇😅
Out of all the videos I've watched on sobriety, yours have resonated the most with me.
Thanks for the ongoing motivation to stay sober.
I hope reading our comments continues to motivate you to stay sober as well!
Keep shining ✨ Goodnight 🫂
Going on three days! Long time coming…for myself first and then my boys…so much guilt. I’ve been coasting through my life. Yes, I have trauma. Yes, I’ve gone through a very abusive relationship on every level with my boys father and it’s still on going.. 3 years post separation…not an excuse. I deserve so much more and my boys deserve a mom who is 100% present…your videos just in the past couple days are very inspiring and I appreciate you for doing this so much! It’s funny and not surprising that I’ve already told myself come this weekend. Maybe I can just allow myself to have a few drinks with friends when the boys are with their father! I know I have to change my thoughts for sure.. Like you said, it’s Totally how you’ve programmed your thoughts and your activities, etc. I’ve had all of the thoughts of well. That’s not gonna be fun without alcohol… Camping without a few drinks?… The list goes on! I know this is going to be life-changing and I may have to lose a few people in my life and that is the scariest thing for me right now! But I am just trying to stay present continue hiking cleaning out my cupboards. I’ve even pulled out the weeds in my front driveway that have been growing for months lol thank you again. I will be watching this every day.🙏🏼❤️
Being present is the greatest present 😁
Krista, you are more sober and present for three days more than me.
I read your entire comment.
You didn't hiccup...your brain was brilliant pre alcohol and it will get better after countering this Dis Ease.
May The Higher Power Prevail on js alm.
Thank you for another great video, Jae!
At first I decided to stay one year sober since the middle of October '23 but now I've shifted my objective towards "Sober 2024". But it doesn't really matter in the long run, I don't feel like going back to drinking anyway and I enjoy my life without it.
Currently in hospital doing a medical detox… looking forward to long term sobriety!
Congrats on embracing sobriety. Keep striving to improve yourself
Good luck! You're taking the necessary steps for a better life. Trust the journey!
I got out of detox two weeks ago. Relapse reminded me that I can't drink. And life sucks if I do
@@steveparten9313 We are all imperfect. Keep striving for sobriety.
That's great!
I’m about 7 months and congratulations to everyone on your new release of life 🥳 my benefits are I have the capability to protect my family , my motivation is from 6am till 9am . I’m calm and no rushing abt watching the clock waiting for myself to find that EXCUSE to crack open that whisky bottle, don’t forget to tell everyone around you that you are now sober and great changes will be made if they join us on our journey 🥳
I managed to mitigate obvious external effects of drinking for a long time, and even reduced my overall intake quite a bit. But as implied here, the fact is half-measures don't work. Eating healthy, staying fit, keeping your mind active - all that is habit, and after a workout I feel awesome. But alcohol hits you in all those other ways. What's causing me to draw the line is the other negative impacts - they only get worse over the years. Culminating in a bizarre weekend (camping) I'm still at a loss to explain. I'm getting out before something *really* bad happens. I see how therapy is one of the twin pillars of success, and I've now promised myself to click that link, after watching many videos from this and other channels, believing every word, and still thinking I can do everything BUT therapy. That is a failed strategy, I can report that from the field. Complete measures must be taken.
I don't know if it's spelled Jae or Jay, but thank you. I feel like you care - from the first vid I saw about 8 months ago almost everything you said resonated with me. Now that I'm going to do something about the drink, I felt compelled to comment for the first time.
Every journey starts with a single step and a single comment in the right direction!
Day 7 of being sober. I’m 25 and have been drinking for 10 years, heavily for 6. The health benefits I’ve already experienced in this short time are eye opening and make me wonder why I even touched the stuff. Thankful to still be this young to have this realization and look forward to the benefits sobriety is gonna continue to bring!
Just remember we're all humans sometimes we set out to do things, we don't succeed, but it's not about getting it right the first time, so if you're reading this and think I've failed once what the point, try again ❤ and again we do nothing perfect the first time round 👌☮️✌️
🎯
First 5 days not a drop and was a little rough at first but am.feeling alot better already not great but seems to be better each day ...sleep is tremendously better already no wacked out dreams not waking up as much and fog definitely clearing....energy much better and less morning irritation....not great yet but can certainly tell a difference for the better....great video
Being able to think clearly is my favorite improvement so far! My blood pressure, bad cholesterol, heart rate, and weight have all gone down too!
Thanks for the info! I'm looking forward to seeing even more improvements in the future! Your videos help me stay motivated 🙏🏻
Wow that improvement clip needs to go viral. Amazing...
You read my mind lol
Well I never drank since Christmas Day and I only had a single , I did a alcohol prevention course , which give me time to work on myself and definitely give me a new routine and structure back into my life . I do socialise in my local snooker hall and always at the bar for my son but I never think of buying myself any alcohol myself, I would definitely educate yourself on hydration and what alcohol can do to the body and how it effects your sleep. I’m in bed every night for 9am and I wake up fresh ,wanting to get up and I’m definitely not dragging my head around during my day , I also had a bowel scare after drinking but all is good but it’s always wise to contact your doctors if you not and blood or changes in your bowel movement 👍
Thank you for the hope and encouragement. 16 days sober.
Hello, everyone! Today I'm 3 months and 9 days sober! Healthwise it feels like I'm in my 20s again lol.
Wonderful video, very inspiring and supportive.😄
Hi Jay still sober from January and it’s all down to your videos and channel… and yes of course I know it’s down to me but it was when I seen your videos. And started watching your videos that it really helped me and give me that kick that I needed so thank you!!! My life has changed for the better 🙏❤️
What A BLESSING!!! Congratulations to you on your new and improved life 😁😁😁
3 weeks !!
Great! Keep going!
5 weeks brother.
Almost two years ago, I quit alcohol and was sober for 8 months. It was the best I had felt in my adult life. Every time I saw someone I hadn’t seen in a while, they commented on how good I looked. When I saw pictures of myself, I didn’t cringe! Eventually, I decided that I could live a mostly sober life and decided to drink socially. Over a year later, i am back to drinking more than ever. I gained back all of the weight and I cringe at pictures of myself again.
Starting over again!
Your comment is the truth, your not alone by any means. Best wishes
@@GrantCampbell-er3vk thank you! 3 weeks sober today and down 6 pounds. We got this!
Day one first night right now. Thank you, this is helping me stay motivated
Wow , that clip you showed from 5 years ago after 30days sober really got me, thanks for sharing and your amazing information , total eye opener
Always happy to inspire 🫶
Hi everyone! 10 days sober! Thanks for another great video Jae.
OH YEAH LETS DO THISSSSS!!!
Since June 1...wanting to do it helps. once a day I work through the urge, once that passes, on to the rest of the evening.
Thank you Jae
I’m 28 years old & today I am 7 months sober.
The idea of getting that Azn glow AND a sunburn AND having to trek across a hot beach to pee frequently is SO unappealing in this heat. And I'm from CANADA 😂 Stay sober. Wear sunscreen ❤
I'm 4 days sober and definitely seeing the better sleep benefits. 💤😴 (Crazy weird dreams, too.)
2 months sober yesterday 🎉 best decision ever made thanks Jay for helping me 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
2 months let's GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
jay please keep making these videos.
Your wish is my command 🧞✨
I quit alcohol +5 months ago and since then my weight has decreased by more than 14 kg (/31 lbs). It must also have an effect on health!
Hello! Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing dads out there. Day 55 for me today.
Words always hit home,thank you,everyone make it a good day sober,safe and free 😊😊🌄🩷
Hi Jae, tomorrow is DAY 20!! I had strong cravings for sake yesterday after work, possibly because I have today, tomorrow, and Wednesday off. Luckily I didn't give in, a mini milestone for me!!
👊 pound it!
1 month sober here! First week sucked but i feel so much better overall. There are still times where its a struggle but I am not going back!
The struggle is part of the journey. KEEP GOING
I like the early video wh en you say "Who knows maybe you're watching this 5 years from now." Ummm YEAH! Here I am ... Day 7 and 65 years old. I wish you would address those of us who feel we have no future because we're so old. Also those of us who lost our jobs years ago remained unemployable for years and NEED to get working again!
I did!
"It's never too late to start getting sober"

Day 7. So much better. No desire for alcohol
Finally finally finally completed a nice smooth taper. Here’s to day 1!
Looking forward to that 24, 48 and 72 hour update! 😁😁😁
I got out of detox 2 days ago, I'm 9 days sober. I have to go back to work today. I haven't aloud myself to feel feelings for the last couple years. I'm scared.
I can’t stop
Just take it one day at a time, try to make it to a week!
Well I had almost a year pretty much alcohol free aside from an occasional beer which turned into every saturday and wemt from 1 beer to way too much like my old habits. I spent the whole day sick as well as the past 3 sundays :sick, completey non productive and its my day off to get stuff done. I just thought I would check in here & call myself out. For anyone who is thinking about taking a drink dont! Let me be the example. Day 1 again. Grateful for these videos.
Day 1 with you! We can do it! And even if we don’t.. we will get back up and try again!
Much love!

Bp back to normal
dear jay - suffering rn - any words of advice
Prevention.
Work towards identifying the main factors and insights of your suffering.
Next, Get to the root of what brought this suffering into your life (back track and figure out where you went wrong).
Next, divide the list of people, places, things, events and situations to what's in your control and what's out of your control. Abstain from what no longer serves you. Continue working on what will bring you closer to your goals.
Next, spend zero energy on what's out of your control and work on what's in your control.
Reduce your stress. Don't hang out at the same places with the same places that brought you here.
Read. Feed your mind, your body, your soul.
Spend time alone and only with people who care about your well being. Create healthy habits. Eat healthy. Exercise. Don't worry about what you're missing out on. and don't beat yourself up on small failures and setbacks. keep moving forward.
Aka: Prevention
I’m 5 months in and I’ve had a few nightmares about relapsing!!!! Anyone else had dreams about drinking since stopping?
Lol everyone
38 days sober
Good morning Jae, today is DAY 17
Happy day 17! Whats on the agenda? I'm going to ride my bike here in a little bit and going to a comedy show later!
@@GettingSoberAgain doing things outside in nature is fantastic, I actually work on the weekends. I'm prior law enforcement and only work part time to stay busy and it keeps me grounded. I'm very into exercise, cooking, hiking with my dog, and origami. Have a great day my friend! Thanks for the support..
@@johncesare2931 what's your most complex origami? I can make a mean paper airplane 🤣
Just trying to get to day 1 ……. 64 and too many issues to deal with :-/
My mom was about your age when she quit. now her doctors won't stop glowing about how healthy she is and appears to be aging backwards!
Looking forward to celebrating your WINS! 👊
Thank you for your encouraging words.
Day 7
Just puting the bottle is good but you got to combine it with a healthy diet eating your greens broccoli 🥦 and plenty and plenty of exercise and water... Just puting the bottle down is 🚫 NOT good enough..
Sounds like a quote from most of our videos ✅
1 month today...again
But for good
I am high and tired NOW.
I have to help myself.
