Yep, i successfully reached my 1 year sober! Not one drop has touched my lips. Since last year ive paid off my car, cleared my debt, dropped down 4 inches in my jean size, ran a 5k, and went out to events and sightseeing more. Its definitely left me more physically and mentally open to more opportunities that may come my way.
I had hoped to fully change my life by now ie new job, new house, a love life, rockin abs etc but i learned early on that the best changes may take more time, and im fine with that.
I dont plan to start drinking again but its nice to know that i have a year of sobriety behind me that i can always be proud of.
It still amazes me how much can be done in a day in the right frame of mind! And also how many things (even simple little things) I put off for so long being in a drunken stupor! Congratu-fricken-lations! Thats awesome.
Yea its definitely worth it, probably the best damn thing ive ever done with my life! so far…
When i started the plan was for 7 months, or 8 max, so i guess i underestimated myself! But honestly when i got to that point i kept staying sober because i didnt want to go back to the way i was before, and throw away all that effort.
