Interestingly enough, it hasn't been that bad. I'd be lying if I said I haven't yearned for a drink, but that being said, I didn't cave in. Every day seems a bit better. My complexion looks much better and sleep has become easier. Only issue is that I'm eating a crap load of candy. I've told myself I'll deal with that later and for now to just focus on not drinking.

Weekend is over so I made it through a tough couple of days. I'll stay strong today and hope for strength for tomorrow.

Actually really happy with the progress and look forward to a lot more. Thanks for everyone's support. I never would have thought I'd be this reliant upon unknown people and virtual conversations.

Thanks again.
