Made it through the weekend. The cravings were most intense on Saturday, but after I made it past 2am, last call for buying beer, Saturday, Sunday was easier.

10 weeks is a nice milestone. Counting the weeks or days has been helpful. When I get it in my mind to drink, I can ask myself whether it is better to have 70 days or Zero days. That sort of comparison puts the desire to drink out in the open light, because the part of me that argues for zero days, is easier to dismiss.

I may not be living life to the fullest, and setting lofty daily goals and accomplishing everything that I dream of, but I'm in a much better position than I would have been coming off a binge.
