Sun, water....
Yep. We don't drink anymore. Beer is definitely an option. But just one beer is not an option. This thing doesn't work that way. Enjoy what sounds like a really nice day with clear head, quiet, calm and on a healthy path.
Hi Saoirse. I felt that way too, in the early days. I was focusing on missing out rather than what I had gained. Feeling a little sorry for myself & resentful. Thankfully, all those feelings passed when I began to appreciate my freedom from the constant obsession with alcohol. For me, there was never one beer. Every time it was in my system unexpected & bad things happened. It wasn't the lighthearted, fun thing I fantasized about. You're doing great on day 15. Things will get better.
So true, Surrendered. I did enjoy the day. Treated myself to a Kombuca Gingeraid instead, delicious and healthy. Wonder if I'll ever reach a point when beer doesn't even cross my mind?

This is one of the reasons I slipped up 2 weeks ago. It was nice out and my 2 cousins sent me pictures of them drinking in the sun so after work I couldn't resist. What a stupid mistake and it was not worth it. Never got to enjoy the sun when I was that drunk.
Sorry anxioustock. Must be all memories from the normal times we had enjoying the sun and cocktails before it got out of hand. It's great that you were able to recognize it, and get right back to taking good care of yourself!
