I quit drinking for nearly 6 months when I was 25. The results at work were better and I slept way better.

i didn't have the random snack foods at work like I did when I drank. When I started back up again, I ate snack foods throughout the course of the day and rarely had a full/balanced meal.

skipping breakfast became easy again cause I was irritable from lack of sleep and thought I'd be okay if I just chugged water. Water is a huge key but using it mainly as a safety valve wasn't the safe haven I pictured.

I run 5 days a week and usually go after I get back from work. Not really lifting any weights at the moment cause at times my job has tasks that require heavy/steady lifting. It helps a lot but at times lately I've felt good enough to think I can handle a few drinks (I do drink responsibly) but have lulls the next day dwelling on the fact I had to drink to feel better when I already felt good! That is the hardest part of wanting to quit for good to me. Its so easy to drink when things are going good and you feel confident about pretty much anything. When things are rough.. I can rally mentally with the best of them and I no longer make the hard times tougher with a round of drinks.

Best of luck Sir!
