[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Np.  I have made it so far, but I am disappointed with the results so far.  I am still tired, even more so at times. No less foggy.   And only lost a pound or two (I expected more since drinking makes me eat more).  But I feel like I am getting better sleep the last day or two, so maybe things are looking up,

Strangest thing is I have less motivation to do my work.  I think I used drinking as motivation (work hard and get a glass of wine at night).  I did not even realize I did it.  Still happy I am doing dry January. I was starting to drink too much, too often.[/quote]

How old are you?  [/quote]

Are you male or female? You might want to get your thyroid checked if you're feeling tired and foggy even without the wine. [/quote]

Female.  Early 50s. So tired and foggy is not that strange, just had hopes it would improve.  I have a check up next month so will mention it.  They do run normal tests, not sure if thyroid is included.  I am overweight, so I could just need to get more serious about dropping some pounds.  [/quote]

I've posted before in this thread - sorry for my broken record story - I am also early 50's and female. I was drinking heavily before I stopped in the Fall. It took me close to 90 days to really see major differences. I'm now at 120 days and I've lost 20 lbs, my skin looks great, I sleep like a baby, cognition is better. There was a period of time when I was totally exhausted. I still have some of the same aches and pains so apparently some of it's is just age. [/quote]
