    I'm glad Feb is almost over! lol

    A =18
    AF = 10

    Not a great result for Feb but I did manage to maintain my weight as of today 2lbs under goal. So I'm looking on the brighter side of life! :)

    @xbowhunter - you can still celebrate all those AF days you racked up. Good for you!

    @MissMay - your final stats for February are truly, truly admirable. A huge congratulations to you. You are right, we can all benefit from Less Alcohol in our lives. Thank you for that honest truth.

    It looks like a lot of success for the month of February. I officially started Feb.4 with no alcohol and made it the rest of the month. I did drink non alcohol beers which helped tremendously. I'll eventually quit drinking those too. Sparkling water with lime seems to do the trick too. Wishing everybody a successful March. See you there. :wink:

    I didn’t do very well with being AF this month. I am disappointed in myself. I was completely dry in January but this month had a few celebrations which just ignited the taste for 🍷. Nice work to all of you who were more successful! Will there be a community group for March?

    After drinking or using rec drugs, or both, every single day since mid-2020, except for a few 4-5 day periods on vacation outside the country, I successfully had a completely dry February.

    I never would have even had the idea or thought to do this if it weren't for joining MFP, and specifically seeing this thread, and for the willingness of others in this thread to allow me (and others) to use the thread as a personal journal when I can't really share my journey with anyone in my real life.

    Thank you to all, and here's to hoping for a good (admittedly not completely dry) March. January and February are my light months and work gets crazy for the rest of the year so I probably won't be back to reading and posting here for a while because if I don't force myself to pull away from forums I spend way too much time.

    As Sam Waterston ends one of my favorite movie monologues of all time:

    May your best years be yet to come. And so for us all.

    Heart felt....thank you for stopping in. We hope your LESS ALCOHOL journey is a success.

    In our eyes you did very well, you showed up here and kept track of your consumption. It has to start some way/ some how. Even little steps get you far.
    See you over on the March thread

    I’m back from vacation, where I drank 2-4 drinks almost every day 🥴. A few days I was able to stick to 2. But, it’s all too easy to suck back those cold beers at the beach! I did not find myself asking for non-A beers, either.

    Final tally for the month:

    A: 5
    AF: 24 😇
