200 Days!

Hi guys,

I've not had one single drop of alcohol in 200 days.

Looking back I couldn't have told anyone what music I liked, my favourite food, I had no idea who I was. I thought I was the eternal party girl - my life was nothing without drink - I felt I was nothing without it. Hate for myself was all I could gather most days.

Today I heard my baby's heartbeat for this first time and I cried. Something I never thought possible is happening and I feel so lucky.

I'm getting healthy in my mind, in my body and in my soul. I'm better, I feel well and I'm doing this.

Wishing everyone well. It really can be done.

Awwww, congrats on baby!!!! How precious and things are so much better sober! I was sober for all five of mine. That's what sobriety gave to me- five precious healthy lives and I'm forever grateful:-)

Hats off to you on 200 DAYS!!!!!
