Today is my 50th day without any type of alcohol or liquor consumption and I feel great! I wouldnt consider myself to be an alcoholic but I was developing a habit of having beers everyday after work and drinking on weekends just for fun and its been going on for a while.
I decided for my own good and families interest to completely stop drinking and using my time and money for better and more resourceful things. I can literally see the change in my body, mind, and especially my pockets!
Now im drinking Lemon water everyday, just about 2 liters of water and I dont get headaches anymore and I dont feel drained. I was also very moody due to the alcohol and I would rely on a beer or a drink to knock the edge off and stress when in reality I was feeding my habit.
50 days later I feel young again, free, and with alot more energy and positive vibes! I plan on staying sober and becoming more active as I continue on this path to overall health and sobreity!

Congratulations! That is a big accomplishment and hey at least you caught it before it got worse. Those are the signs of having an addiction and building up a tolerance. I am glad you are feeling and doing a lot better.
