21 Days

21 days since my last drink. 21 days!

Seems like a small victory and it is. But there has been a mind shift for me as well. Now, when I go home, I workout or I grab another cup of water or brew a cup of coffee.

Gone are the days of walking in and grabbing a beer. Gone are the days of even thinking about having a glass of wine while cooking.

21 days!

The reality is this and I don’t want to minimize this at all and nor do I want to make too big of a deal of it either and here is why, this is my 21 days. This is my story. While at dinner a few weeks ago, I had a cup of decaf coffee while my wife had wine. And not once did I think, I’ll cheat or take the approach that no one would know if I had a beer. I would know.

21 DAYS!

My friends and I decided to do this Dry January and thus far, I’m down a little over 10 lbs and feeling a lot better. Sleeping better. Working out more. And in 21 days, my thinking has changed.

So 21 days down and a lifetime to go.
