My 2nd day

Hello I just wanted to say it's nice to be starting out this sober journey with others in the same boat. I had my epiphany this weekend when I behaved horribly at a friends house and embarassed myself and my husband, that was the worst! I decided that's it! I feel somewhat liberated in that decision as drinking has always been a challenge after my gastric bypass. I would always try to pace myself, drink water between drinks, etc. I decided yesterday that if it was so much work, why bother? My husband and I are involved in many social events and I think about two in particular that are coming my way and it seems so much easier to me to just not drink then to try and drink responsibly. Whew...now let's just hope that's a feeling that lasts! :praying

I look forward to using this forum and getting to know you. I truly believe you have to do this one day at a time and that's all I can worry about.

Thanks for being here!
