I definitely saw an improvement at about 2 weeks. The first 14 days I was in my own personal hell and didn't even have the energy to look in the mirror. Once the fog cleared my face started to as well.
The bloat and extra 10 pounds I was carrying disappeared with no effort on my part except to eliminate the booze calories.
Now, at almost 2 years, I can pass for 10 years younger and continue to notice improved appearance. It scares me to think what I would look like had I continued drinking. Wow.
In general, without the toxic effects of alcohol in your system you should see improvement on all you mention - and I too had to work on my sad face
with some time and healing and effort, I now have a happy face 95% of the time. When I feel a sad face coming on, I try to just relish in the fact that I managed to quit drinking for 2 years. That always turns my frown upside down
