      @jordanscollected thank you! And back at you on the no alcohol!! I’m sure that’s carrying over into other healthier choices too

        @flannel-slut hell yeah dude. You're through the worst part already. I have also been down the same road. I smoked for 13 years and am 5+ years out now. There will be slip ups, but the biggest thing is keeping it from becoming a habit again. I quit drinking too, 557 days (California) sober as of today. That almost seemed harder than quitting cigarettes in many ways.

        Either way, quitting any addictive substance that once gave us pleasure can be incredibly difficult. None of us regret the extra UHF cash though, as stated. That's a powerful perspective right there.

        @jordanscollected I was drinking a ton of NA beers for at least the first 6 months after quitting real booze. They saved me, really. Now I save those for holidays and vacations. Eventually I lost the interest/addictive tendencies but they are a wonderful place holder. Especially when around old drinking buddies. That's the hardest!

          @Oaktavia I have the "benefit" of not being a drinker anyhow. for the last decade I was a beer or 2 per week and never drunk. But I just found that there was no benefit to even having 1. I end up just falling asleep and feeling run down the next morning. It didn't long for me to lose the urge to have a beer on a Friday or Saturday night.

                  A colleague asked me today for “the name of the clothing company I like” – apparently her husband needs some new jeans. Not sure if it will lead to anything, but it’s the first time this has happened to me. I only get to wear jeans to the office 2 or 3 times a year, so they must have made an impression!

                    I’m sure it was you that made the impression, not the jeans.
