Love this post, I'm still on the dark side working things out. But this post always inspires me to keep doing better. Much appreciation to everyone's stories of success!

Best of luck navigating the holiday gentlemen (And any ladies).

This year one thing in grateful for is my decision to quit drinking!

Sprite and a splash of Cranberry, looks like a drink, feels like a drink l, tastes good, and you can be up by 5 the next morning splitting firewood feeling fine!

I am very thankful to the Lord that it's been over 22 years sober for me. Nothing but water, coffee and some of my wife's ice tea for dinner. Funny thing is that at random times I can smell a fresh beer after you open it even if I am in the mountains, but I have no desire to go back. Stay focused in your goals everyone, your health and family depend on it.

I've been drinking virgin gin and tonics.

Diet tonic too.

With a lime of course!

November 17th made 8 months sober for me. Gets easier as time goes on too.

Officially over a year without a drink and feeling pretty good. Has been pretty easy honestly as the desire to have one really hasn’t been there. Except for yesterday…. Not sure what it was but we were eating at our favorite pizza spot and a frosty beer was pulling on me hard. Glad I held out cause it’s been a busy day!

Happy thanksgiving everyone.

Decided to try out sober October. Still going strong. Gonna keep at this sobriety. This thread has helped a bunch. Thank you to everyone who has posted.
