Good morning sober peeps!!

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/stop drinking 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!

Happy Friday everyone! I’ve got two new hobbies that have kept me entertained and has helped with not drinking. Baking cookies and streaming video games with my wife! Been a ton of fun!

I will not drink with you today!

BTW, white chocolate chip craisin cookies are fantastic

I’m in OCD training all day today, then going on a double date with my in-laws. Quite a full day! And of course, I will not drink with you today.

New to the whole, not drinking crowd. Currently, on day 3 of no drinking. My beverage of choice was good beer.

The hardest thing is keeping other things to drink, NA of course, around the house. I've been going through iced tea and lemonade pretty quickly. I can only drink so much water

A lot of people get on the sparking water kick. I got one of those Cirkle bottles and I really like it. I’ve never been a plain water drinker. And there’s tons of flavors. More on their website than you see in the stores.

And welcome!!!
