One of my greatest reliefs is that I do not drink alcohol any more and haven't for over 10 years, so not something I have to cope with giving up.
Not adverse to the odd glass of wine at a function but routinely I got fed up with having a drink meaning I just ended up sitting and watching the telly, feeling a bit sleepy, so got nothing done.
My life is hugely better for it, my only demons now being chocolate and cheese.4 -
Well, I’m out. I went to a wedding in Tampa...6

Made it through the weekend, albeit plenty of temptations made it quite challenging. One day at a time 😎6

Thirty six consecutive alcohol free days but I'm going camping over the weekend and I don't foresee Sober October existing for me after that point... I just want to be honest. Big hugs to all of you lovely people hanging in there 💗...5

Nearly a week now still hanging in typically October is a 5 weekend month lol
Weight up and down but hopeful in few days i will have lost a pound or six2 -
Traveling in Poland for work now and it’s TOUGH given the amazing food, beer, and vodka out here, but I’m holding my own and staying strong 💪 keep it up everyone!4

If the exercise is new, you are likely retaining water, which is why your scale isn't moving.1 -
Day 22 and still going strong! Everyone is smashing this heading into the home stretch!2

Day 549 for me apparently. The length of this streak is unintentional. In 2018 I went 160ish days over the summer. I planned to do the same in 2019 but then I had surgery, my activity went way up, I started getting up at early o'clock every morning to exercise and alcohol does not fit me very well anymore. I probably would have had something on my cruise in the spring but covid cancelled it.
Life is better when alcohol is an occasional visitor not a squatter in your head. Some people cannot even handle that much but I am fortunate that I did not go over the cliff, I just visited the edge for longer than was good for me.1 -
Gee, if only I had seen this sooner!2
-
I haven't drunk any alcohol this whole month!4
-
survived 31 days woo hoo
however i have a few cools ones in the fridge for later lol4 -
Good luck to everyone. I'm off it 18 months now and no regrets.4
-
Now seeing this in November, but what was the definition of sober?
I've never been drunk in 54 years, but I do take a drink of various alcoholic beverages occasionally.2 -
The OP stopped posting in the thread on October 7 - presumably because he decided it was a bad idea.1
