A small victory, or a huge step?

Tonight I was invited out to take in a stand up show at a club downtown. I love stand up and went. When I got there the place had a two drink minimum rule. Which you pay for the drinks up front and they give you tickets to redeem for drinks from the bartender. I do not drink. They said it wasn't optional. So my friend bought my two drinks too and said he would just have 4 lol, which he said was perfectly fine for him since I would be driving. Afterwords he wanted to stop at a place and get something to eat, which I had no problems with all of the options looked very good. I said that I wasn't hungry and just stuck to my water. We had a fun time! The part of it that was huge for me was that this has been the first time I'd gone to a club since I quit drinking, and I was able to turn down tempting but very bad food as well. I'm so proud of myself. The old me would've drank way too much and ate way too much, now I can finally say I am a completely changed person (for the better)
