Day one is over, the monkey is big!

well I made it through the first night. It is funny just thinking of alcohol makes me sweat. I believe the food part will be easier than the booze part. Question 1) will the monkey get smaller as I do? Question 2) is it ok to drink so much coffee in the morning ,because I kinda miss the hand shaking thing? Question 3) does weight effect other peoples attitudes toward you or does being thinner make you more out going?
Ok sad part . It is only day one. But I want reassurance from the scale already. I want it to scream at me. Scream encouragement. The big OCD question today is will I go on the scale? The scale has almost replaced the obsession of food and booze? Time will tell.
So do we think it is possible to drop 20lbs in 22 days? Any wagers? I think huey lewis said it best with the words " I need a new drug" exercise may be the key and if I drop 20lbs I may be able to out run my demons.
