I just read an article about what benefits I wreak when I don't drink...since i need some positive thoughts....I am sharing....of course...lol (what else to do besides sit here feeling sorry for myself...) smile

This is a quote from an alcohol abuse page:

Giving up alcohol for one month may significantly improve your health, though more research is required.

The only real downside: Those involved in the study felt less social.

So if you’re looking for an excuse to binge watch Netflix while possibly losing weight, lowering your cholesterol, and sleeping better, try going dry. Then share your results in the comments section below.

After Dr. today (I think it has been a month)...I have lost 3 pounds..but I attribute that to eating cottage cheese at night vs. bagels...and lessening bread intake.

I also have to admit...I am sleeping better...2.5 hours at a time vs. 1 hour at a time.

Cheers!

  'I hope that I don't fall in love with you'
  (also a song - Tom Waites - one of the very few non-classical pieces of music I can bear listening to.)
