90 days!

It’s still weird to think that I don’t drink anymore. When it’s been basically your life for years it’s hard to believe sometimes. But I’ve made it 90 days! It’s amazing to be starting out a new year sober...can’t remember the last time I did that and boy did it feel good to wake up sober on New Years Day (btw sparkling grape juice tastes WAY BETTER than champagne). Going to celebrate with some cake today, which also tastes way better than alcohol Here’s to 90 more!

Congrats on 90 days. This is my 3rd or 4th new years waking up sober. So far I haven't made it a full year. Usually drinking again by October, but I always make it a top priority to start the new years sober and see how long I can go. Hope to make it a full year this time.

90 days is big. More than twice as big as my 44. But I'll wager we both feel shitloads better than we did 6 months ago. I'm so happy that 2020 is here. All things seem possible.

Way to go. 90 days is a good chunk. Stay vigilante. You should be proud of yourself.

90 days is amazing , well done!!!

I had sparkling grape juice with my Christmas dinner. It was lovely. I felt like I was having something celebratory, cos it was all bubbly and sparkly (I wasn't "pretending" it was alcohol) , it tasted delicious and went really nice with my dinner and best of all no getting drunk and no hangover 😊😊😊😊

"old habits die hard" - not sure who said this.

First thing I thought of when I read your first two sentences. It will take time to change the old habit even though it's been 3 months is what I figure myself on that.

Well done - 3 months.

I am coming up on 3 months in another month roughly myself. My short term goal is roughly 3 months.

Many people have timelines of three months online to as well. Going to start reading these more and more myself.
