Small victory...big achievement
So this evening my fiancé and I went to view a potential venue for our wedding and then went for a lovely meal. I have been sober for 17 days. It felt so refreshing, and this may sound odd but 'pure' to spend time with my partner, without alcohol being my focus or seeing/using it as an opportunity to have a drink!!! It's so nice to know that I was fully present and engaged in each moment.
Anyway...just wanted to share x

Sounds so nice! I am getting married in six months and now I have decided to quit I'm reassessing all kinds of things- don't think I could cope with a sober hen weekend, not sure I could cope with a sober wedding but I'm trying not to think that far ahead yet. One day at a time is all I'm capable of. Glad you are having fun sober times, most meals I end up eating very little and like you use it as an excuse to drink. Hopefully I have these fun times ahead where I will remember things!

Yes I need time to adjust to sober times and to start feeling better. I think some will be disappointed about my lack of or sober hen do, whereas most others will probably be more relieved than anything 😂
Here's to looking and feeling better
