Great topic. No blotchy red skin, less puffy face. Dark circles under my eyes are noticeably better or even gone. Joints don't ache as much, overall inflammation is down. When hungover I would sweat very easily and get winded very easily. I'm completely out of shape and yet I can some physical activity without feeling like I just ran 5 miles. Steady hands, great appetite, sleep like a log. I could go on.
The indigestion tablets! I used to chew tums driving to work. I thought they helped soak up the booze left in my stomach and help with the alcohol breath. Body powder everywhere and extra in bra to soak up booze sweat. And cologne of course. I must have smelled like a perfumed goat.

Four weeks here:
From frequent to infrequent reflux
No hangover headaches
Face less puffy and dark circles under eyes have lessened
Back feels better - probably from sleeping better
I am still needing extra sleep but energy is much better otherwise
Not noticing weird heart stuff anymore
Better BMs
Far better morning breath (and I'm flossing way more consistently before bed)
Lost some weight but more generally enjoying being in a body that feels good (less internal critiquing chatter)
I don't NEED coffee in the morning
Snoring less but still need to drop more weight to stop snoring

I was in a really bad way physically. It's hard even for me to fully wrap my brain around how awful I felt at all times. Being comfortable in my body, not at war with it, is a daily gift.
I've also noticed recently oh hey, I'm cute again! Not-about-to-die is a pretty good look for me.
Can't wait to see how healthy and energized I'm going to get when I get my exercise going again.
