Benefits in black and white!

4 weeks ago I had a doctor's appointment. I was on day 2 of "dry january" and felt like crap. My BP was 149/90. They took it twice, they were so concerned. So was I - hypertension runs in my family and it finally seems to have caught up to me. Today I had an appointment with another doctor, 28 sober days later - my BP was 104/70. My jaw dropped. AND I was down 10lbs. I posted here a couple weeks ago because my partner had started drinking again and I felt lost and betrayed on this journey, and this group stepped up and stepped in as my support system and I am so grateful. I said that I had erased IWNDWYT from our "drink count" board because it wasn't something we were doing together anymore. Someone here told me to write it on there again because I'm never sober alone, and to keep track of my sober days, and I did. 6 sets of 5 hashmarks, and I'm not stopping there, either. A million thanks to all of you. Happy Friday! IWNDWYT ❤️
