We may be anonymous strangers on the internet, but we have one thing in common. We may be a world apart, but we’re here together!

Welcome to the 24 hour pledge! I’m pledging myself to not drinking today, and invite you to do the same.

Maybe you’re new to c/stopdrinking and have a hard time deciding what to do next. Maybe you’re like me and feel you need a daily commitment or maybe you’ve been sober for a long time and want to inspire others.

It doesn’t matter if you’re still hung over from a three day bender or been sober for years, if you just woke up or have already completed a sober day. For the next 24 hours, let’s not drink alcohol!

Day 14. Let's get at er! Still hanging in here! Busy morning today, but that's just fine with me. I think my damned old body is starting to adjust to sobriety! Somewhat, anyways.. Sleep is finally getting better, maybe not what I'd call regular, just yet. But definitely much better!

I will not drink with you today!

Thank you! Best couple of weeks I've had in years! (In some ways, anyways..) Tough in others. But, I've gotten to a place where I'm feeling consistently better day by day. And even the worst days are better than my best days being shitfaced.

Damn! Good job! I’m closing in on the longest I’ve gone without drinking in the past 5 years. Hoping to eclipse that and keep going like you

I will drink lots of water with you today

OMG I used to joke about my Pepsi IV. I bought a cirkle bottle in December and that is my new addiction LOL

[-] CheesyGordita@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Yeah… I’m trying to cut back on caffeine a bit now. I realized I can’t trade one addiction for another. I’ll have to check out cirkle. I have a sodastream that has been nice. The carbonation helps me stay full between meals and not snack too much. Trying to lose the weight I’ve gained from my past heavy drinking and inactivity from the pandemic.
