60 days for me!
I've been alcohol free for 60 days! 
I'm still going strong. I've thought about drinking a few times but never very seriously. All it takes to keep me sober is to think of exactly how I felt 61 days ago. Not good. In fact, absolutely miserable.
I feel free for the first time in years. I love getting up in the morning. I hate going to bed at night because I want to keep going and going. Do ANYTHING but drink. I read a lot now. I clean a lot. I spend so much more time with my kids. My relationship with my mom has improved. My job performance has improved. I even got a small promotion and a pretty large raise last week!
I'm able to see into the future and make plans. I have goals! I mean, I have more goals than just how long it's going to be before I can have a drink. I have more money in the bank...yada, yada, yada. lol
Life is pretty damn good. I have a lot to be thankful for.
Oh, and the intense cravings I had for sweets has waned a bit. I still get the cravings but not every night like I did for about the first 45 days!! Thank goodness for that. haha!
Anyway, I haven't been on here much lately and want to congratulate everyone who is still here, still working on staying or getting sober.
