Resolved
YES

I went nearly sober on January 1, 2022, cutting regular alcohol consumption (5-10 weekly drinks on average) down to nearly zero except for a few occasional drinks at birthdays, romantic dinners, or special celebrations. I may have had a dozen drinks max in 2022—a few beers, some bubbly, and some wine, no liquor. Still, not technically sober.

I plan on going fully sober onwards and having no alcoholic drinks in the foreseeable future. I was also recently selected to be an Ambassador for the Athletic Brewing Company, the leading NA beer maker.

Will I honor my commitment?

Note 1: does not resolve to NO if I ingest alcohol by force or accident. I will only count intentional drinking.

Note 2: I have never considered myself an alcoholic, though I believe my alcohol consumption was trending upwards during the pandemic and, though probably not above average, was still excessive by the standards I hold.

Note 3: I really enjoy good beer, wine, and liquor. My commitment is independent of a distaste for alcoholic beverages.

Note 4: my last drink was on my birthday, October 16, 2022

in exactly 10 days a bottle of jägermeister will mysteriously appear in your fridge and you will drink the entire bottle in a single sitting

@SweatyFish there's plenty of booze around the house already yet I don't drink it.

Celebrated my birthday yesterday and incidentally the anniversary of my last alcoholic drink. My wife asked me to taste a sip of her IPA, which I declined. I had a NA Mai Tai and a NA beer and it was all good.

You seem to be very stubborn so I'm betting in favor of you. 😁

@PatrickDelaney Yeah sounds reasonable

Mid year update: still haven’t had any alcoholic drink, at least not that I’m aware of, and I can’t remember the last time I craved one. Looking good!
