Decided to go sober 8 months ago, and in the first three months of sobriety I noticed slight weight loss then kicked it into high gear around June with CICO and exercise. Sometimes it’s hard for me to see my progress and body dysmorphia really gets in my way, so I made this post to remind myself how far I’ve come. Weight loss is different for everyone but if anyone has similar stats to me I’d love to chat about some questions I have to help me along this journey. Thanks to all y’all for always being an inspiration to me when I was just a lurker. ❤️
