Hi there!
I'm delighted to hear that you are happy with your 'new life' - well done!
Re moderation: IMHO, you need some serious totally sober time behind you before you go anywhere near that decision. I'm talking 6 months, maybe a year (that is NOT medically backed-up, just my thoughts for myself).
You cannot make that decision after a short time AF, IMO (although well done on it!). Who knows, maybe after 6 months you won't care one whit about alcohol and 'to moderate or not to moderate' will not be the question.
Of course it is now, because you are still close to the whole thing. Your brain and outlook will be different as the months go by.
I'm just sayin', don't necessarily 'trust' decisions that you make now, in regards to future drinking. Continue to focus on your excellent path of sobriety and feeling good, and re-evaluate later (much later).
Good luck and well done,
BB
