7 DAYS! One week with zero alcohol. I am pretty darn stoked.

The last couple of days was pretty chilled. Today was a little tougher, but nothing like the first two days. The new medication is definitely making a difference, and allows me to feel more in control. I finally feel like I am able to work on myself.

One glaring piece of evidence I can share to show the impact of this change is my sleep quality.

Two screen shots from a Fitbit demonstrating a massive difference in sleep quality. From an average of 75 to 83

On the left is the previous week and on the right this last week. It is, even on average, a big, big difference. I am really excited to see what other physical and mental benefits I will experience in the next 7 days.

If you ever wondered whether making this change is worth it? I can tell you, stop asking the question, and quit! Have a great weekend all, and thank you for all of your support. ✌️
