JACK HARTMANN SIGHT WORDS SKIN

I paused and thought about it for a minute. But something stopped me from taking a sip.

I had every intention of drinking that beer. I went to a pub, ordered a Budweiser, and put it to my mouth. When I reached the personal milestone of one year without drinking, I found myself back in Austin at South by Southwest. When it did, I had clarity and energy to win the gig and host SportsCenter for two years. More opportunities – like an ESPN audition to host SportsCenter – came my way. I became calmer and made better decisions. I constantly thought, 'How can I help others, rather than how can they help me?' My relationships became considerably better – romantic and platonic. Six to 12 months was fairly easy, but here I noticed the most dramatic changes. I thrived on telling people I had temporarily stopped drinking. I'd showered, had breakfast and was ready to tackle the day by 11 am when my mates were just dragging their lazy, hungover backsides out of bed.īetween three and six months I was in the zone. I was then up at 8 am on weekends to hit the gym. I just smiled, pointed to my head and said, 'I'm too strong in mind.' Some idiots even tried to slip vodka into my water. They called me a “Pussy!” Or said, “Just have one!” Or “An Aussie that doesn’t drink?!?! F$%k off!” Guys were always suspicious of my story, thinking that I was an alcoholic in recovery. “I can stop drinking and still be fun, entertaining and attractive to women.” When I told women I wasn’t drinking, far from them thinking I was an alcoholic in recovery, they were impressed with my self-discipline. I could still burn the midnight oil until 5 am but didn't want to: nothing good happened after1 am, anyway. I could be the life of the party, and no one would notice that I wasn't drinking. People complimented me on how good I looked.ĭespite not drinking, I still managed to have wildly entertaining nights out – even with my drunken friends slurring their words around me. I’d dropped a few more pounds of fat and started to put on lean muscle in the gym.

When it was hot outside, I started dreaming, “I could smash a cold beer right now!” But I breathed deeply, downed some water, and the feeling passed.Īfter three months, I felt terrific. Or a Bombay Sapphire gin and tonic with a dash of lime. 'Just keep going and see how far you can go.” Little did I know just how far I would go.Īfter 60 days, I craved a cold beer.

My skin looked considerably better, and I enjoyed getting out of bed for early morning exercise. I felt better, slept better and had more mental clarity.Īfter 30 days, I’d lost an incredible 13lbs (5.9kg) of fat around my stomach. “You’re un-Australian!” they’d say.īut I survived those two weeks. When I went out with friends and ordered water, they gave me a hard time. I felt rock bottom so made the instant decision to go 30 days alcohol-free: a personal bet to test my self-discipline. The sights and smells of greasy, unhealthy food. The big, bright, bold colors on the IHOP menus. On March 10, 2010, I went for a 'hangover breakfast' at the International House of Pancakes (IHOP), after a fun night at the South by Southwest festival.Įverything made me feel nauseous. His relationships were ok but not amazing. He wasn’t sleeping well and always felt tired, sluggish, irritable. He didn't have an alcohol problem or got into trouble. A few drinks when celebrating birthdays, weddings, anniversaries and watching football games.
