Hi.

Just wondering if there are many others who have given up alcohol on this forum. Not just for a while, but as a permanent life choice.

The reason I ask is that I have recently given up alcohol and would love to hear how others have benefited from their decision.

Personally I am seeing many positives.

Here are some I've noticed already.

- I've lost about 4.5kg
- I look about 5 years younger
- My skin is getting better by the day
- Better able to cope with the stresses of life
- Stopped taking medicine for acid reflux
- Reduced pain. Very few painkillers used.
- I'm happier
- I'm less moody/grumpy
- Much more tolerant with my wife and kids
- Heaps more energy
- Grateful
- Calmer
- Clearer head
- More motivated
- Less reflux/heartburn
- Saving heaps
- More positive outlook on life
- Less aches and pains

That's just some off the top.

I'd love to hear from people who have really changed their lives because of their decisions.

It's been a big decision for me, but I know it is the correct one.

Thanks in advance.

Brett.
