I see a different man in the mirror
Who would of thought not drinking, if only for this short period can have a massive impact on your personal development.
I don't recognise myself in the mirror. Infront stands a fit, lean , fresh faced person with hair regrowth and energy in his eyesight,
This person , is a far cry of who was there 56 days ago and to.
Keep it up new guys, you'll see dbdt if talking about, it's so worth it.
Just because your not seeing changes early on does not mean they won't come, you just gotta weather the storm.

Sorry for all the typos. I actually fell asleep writing that on my phone. Even I thought I must have had a few when i re-read it this morning.
but yes i knew there would be changes, but i didn't think it was - everything!

I was with a friend and ran into another friend I haven't seen in a year or so.
The other person chatted with the friend I was with, and then asked if she'd seen me. I WAS STANDING RIGHT THERE. They didn't recognize me. As soon as I spoke they recognized the voice and were like OMFG.

yeah i was starting to see signs of baldness in the front of my hair, now that iam sober, my scalp is not visible anymore.
Congratulations! I love days when I look in the mirror and feel and look great. They aren't all like that but I sure look in the mirror and see someone who is trying their best and isn't hungover and doesn't have daily regrets of overdrinking. That alone does wonders for self-esteem. Congrats on the hair growth, the universe must be rewarding you for your hard work!
Great job, Ren! Sobriety looks good on everyone and the changes are often very dramatic--I don't think anyone says 'oh, you look like crap since you stopped boozing!' Things will keep getting better. Sobriety rocks.
