Chrissy Teigenrecognized another milestone during her sobriety journey.

On Monday, theCravings: All Togethercookbook author, 36, celebrated her “first award season no booze.” She shared pictures from theVanity FairOscar Partywith a message about marking her firstaward seasonwithout drinking alcohol.

“Wow first award season no booze!!!” Teigen wrote onInstagram.

“The invite to@vanityfairwill forever be my ‘I can’t believe I’m this lucky’ thing along with my crazy little family. Thank you@alanavanderaaand@krisstudden@hairinelfor being so supportive and making me feel like 1 billion dollars,” she continued.

In the past, the lifestyle expert, who is eight months sober, has spoken openly about how previously she was “point blank, just drinking too much.”

“I got used to being in hair and makeup and having a glass of wine. Then that glass of wine would carry over into me having one before the awards show. And then a bunch at the awards show. And then I felt bad for making kind of an ass of myself to people that I really respected. And that feeling, there’s just nothing like that. You feel horrible. It’s not a good look for me, for John, for anybody,” Teigen toldCosmopolitanin 2017. “Imagine everything we have. Everything is there, always. I don’t know how to go to an awards show and not drink.”

Teigen’s husband John Legend, 43, has since boasted about his wife’s progress. “She’s so present,” hetold PEOPLE in December. “And she was always fun, but I think her being more present, it just makes everything more enjoyable for her and for all of us.”
