New here, 41 days sober Hi all, I am 41 days sober today and am taking it one day at a time. I just got a new job and am really working on myself. Getting in touch with my true emotions and depression has been very surprising for sure. Was hoping that eliminating the bottle plus a night of wine would help with weight loss but so far no. I am watching what I eat and am starting a keto diet today. Has anyone else had weight loss from sobriety? Has anyone tried a keto approach? Thanks in advance |
Welcome! Congrats on 41 days sober :) I am 10.5 months sober, and for the past 3-7 months I have been working out and being much more active and have lost 30 pounds. The first 3 months I didn't watch what I ate and the sugar cravings were off the wall. Give it time, it'll all work out. |
Welcome to the family. :) Congrats on 41 days sober! :) |

Thanks in advance your start eating well and focusing on yourself from inside out. I am on Day 67 today and with my soberness came the need to eat healthier. I’ve dropped 18 lbs. I used to drink a bottle or 2 of wine a night. So, I know it’s definitely a lot less empty calories I am consuming. I am also doing intermittent fasting in which I eat on 6-8 hrs a day, it helps me keep focused and full of energy. Good luck on Keto, I’ve read great reviews on it. |
Great job on the 41 days. You are very early in the process, I wouldn't stress too much early on. I quit drinking and joined a gym, I didn't lose any weight but I lost 3 inches on my waist. I think I must have gained muscle in my upper body which is why I didn't lose weight. |
