Happy AF weekend to all Just checkin' in6

Good morning friends! I did a juice fast for 24 hours. It was fabulous but I was hungry. I told myself "You can do anything for 24 hours." I think the same applies to my alcohol addiction. Like @whitpauly says "another 24". You inspire me Whitpauly.
Because I had a sober weekend I could do a juice fast, eat at a cute breakfast place by 7 a.m. on a Sunday morning, go to coffee without a hangover with my daughter before she heads back to school, read a book, go to the movies and have no anxiety. Good weekend overall.12 -
Good Evening Everyone: Hoping it is a good one!
I decided to peek at my Quit Drinking app and am wishing I would have socked my weekly wine budget away cause I would have saved $3,472.00...I've been AF for 607 days and 18 hours LOL and have saved my liver & other vital organs 2170.5 glasses of vino...Now, that was the conservative guestimate when I set my stats up on this app...so we are looking at an average. Unbelievable to me though...my liver is doing cartwheels at the moment11 -
Wow Lorraine those are some interesting stats. You cant put a price on a newly restored liver. So happy for you.6

Wow Lorraine! Awesome! Congratulations to you!4

I was in the grocery store noticing people buying HUGE amounts of beer and wine, I guess for Super Bowl Parties. We are going to 2 but I'll be bringing sparkling water. I do plan on eating whatever I want though, lol.6

Today I have been sober for six months! I'm so proud of myself. This is the longest I've been sober in over twenty years and I can honestly say that I love it. I've rekindled my passion for fitness and healthy eating, I have more energy and sleep better and am completing goals that I've set for myself. It's cool to see this thread pop up today. Congratulations for all those who are living alcohol free for whatever reasons you have. It's a very individual choice. Mine was made because it was either get sober, or end up dead. Life is totally worth living!10

@Aporia1983 congrats on your 6 months!
I had the drinking dream last night. It was some kind of Boozy selzer which I didnt realize it had alcohol in it. Then when I found out felt so defeated. Luckily just a dream.
Happy AF weekend to all5 -

So glad to see such encouraging comments...I love this thread and am so thankful for all of the support and encouragement we receive from each other.

Good Morn to All: Hoping everyone is well! 6ish weeks till spring...my fave season!! Time is flying by, so I do not want to wish it away. I was dreading the winter, but so far so good...and there is still a lot of winter left. So today I am enjoying the slower pace that winter brings and the coziness of being inside & looking out on the lovely snow as I have today off.
Happy AF day6 -
Hope y'all are doing swell!! I'm getting bored with my comments lol Please help me out. It's been real quiet here the past week.3

I'm with you 😭 I wish it was action packed over here I miss those days Lorraine! Hope everyone is doing good and sticking to their goals,I recently found out I'm anemic so I've been working on getting my ferritin level up,it's harder than I thought it would be and here I thought by staying off booze I'd have better health but there's no way I'd make my health worse by picking up again,no way Jose 😁4
