I'm so happy for you! I just celebrated my 90 day-3 month mark and my next goal is 6 months and am so excited! Like you my life is so much different now and 100% better so I welcome the changes. It all started and ends with me! (Hug) to you! Congrats!

Its amazing how much better you look when you dont drink.
I dont see my parents often, but saw them this past weekend. My mom said I looked better than I have in years. I can believe that although I still get upset about bags under my eyes etc. But she said they were hardly noticeable. I guess I am still a little more self judgemental.
But the beer gut is gone. I havent really lost much weight maybe 5 or so lbs, but I was average weight to begin with. Just less bloating.
Its nice for other people to say things like that, just adds to why we are doing this.

I'm at 170 days so almost 6 months. Glad to see others doing well. I am enjoying looking better and the weight loss although the sugar monster is certainly back in my life...anxiety was a little better this week since I went to a group anxiety/depression therapy group the first time. I am renewing a relationship with my daughter--she tried 2-3 months ago but I just wasn't ready. Now I feel up to it and I'm thankful for that. I have 2 (1 yr. and 1 month respectively) grandaughters by her so this has been a huge issue and I'm not sure if I'd kept drinking if I would have had this opportunity again. My job is still a constant thorn in my side but I am opening up to the possibility of finding a new one eventually... am getting to more things I'd been neglecting. Also looking forward to better things...:-)
