Chrissy Teigen: 'Not A Drop Of Alcohol In 365 Days!'

"Not a drop of alcohol in 365 days!" Chrissy Teigen is celebrating the one-year mark of being sober on Instagram with a post reflecting the times in her life she was drinking a lot and what that did to her. She explained to her more than 38 million followers why she drank alcohol and what made her decide to stop in an open and honest caption on a video of her and her family - husband John Legend, 43, and children Luna, 6, and Miles, 4, on vacation enjoying life.

"I miss feeling loopy and carefree sometimes, but to be honest toward the end, it didn't give that fun feeling anymore anyhow. I drank to end crazy anxiety that later mostly went away when I - get this- quit drinking! sigh. anyhow I feel really good," she captioned her post. She went on to say, "sometimes I get really frustrated looking back on days I should remember way better than I do because of alcohol. Like when I drank cafe patrol and fell asleep while an Outback Steakhouse chef taught me (my friends) how to make a bloomin onion at my house. i wish I was awake for that. Wish I remembered really any awards show lol. There are pictures from huge moments in my life where my eyes just look...gone. Some are from real work shoots, some just beach days with the family." She further explained that she doesn't know if she will never drink again, but said "I do know I never want to be that way again."

The post got more than 300,000 likes and nearly 5,000 comments. The comment section of the post was filled with red hearts, messages of congratulations, and tons of inspiration and proud feelings. Some of her followers expressed their gratitude for her sharing her story, as well as sharing their own sobriety journeys.

"Proud of you!!! I have followed along your journey and have noticed how on fire you look and how happy you are!!! I stopped 378 days ago!!! You inspired me in early 2021 when you posted about How to Quit like a Woman! I failed the first time. Luckily July of 2021 I made that promise and never looked back!! Here's to another year of freedom, happiness, UNFORGETTABLE memories and that glow."

"Good for you and for realizing what alcohol was doing. It's hard to sit in your real feelings without a coping mechanism. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. You're one badass woman!"

"Thank you for sharing your story always! I've been thinking of going alcohol free for a while now."

"Same here! I'm almost at 4 years and each year just gets better. Congrats to you! What a great milestone."

This past December, Teigen talked to People about her first major holiday being sober. "I think the thing that makes me happy is realizing that I'll still say stupid things and act and make stupid mistakes, even sober. I used to make crucial Thanksgiving errors, maybe one or two, and I still made a really bad one this year," she said. "But I actually caught it, and that's something drunk Chrissy would never have done. I caught it before it went out and I was like, 'Wow, I am so sober.'"

Celebrating milestones along the way has kept Teigen in the right frame of mind and thinking positively. She celebrated the 100-day mark back in October and told People, "It feels like a little kid, right? You don't want to keep talking about it, and sometimes I'm like, 'Oh my God, am I talking about it too much?" She's taking her journey day-by-day and taking note of each milestone as it passes. "It is weird to go through these milestones of, 'Oh my God, this is the first time that I've woken up after a birthday and I remember everything, I feel great,'" she said.
