Before & After Pics

When I partook of the Alcohol Experiment in 2019, it was suggested to take photos of yourself at the start and end of the 30 days. I didn’t do it. I was convinced I wouldn’t see a difference. I mean, I didn’t drink THAT much, right? And I didn’t want to be discouraged. But then two different acquaintances that I’d met right around 4 1/2 years ago but hadn’t seen since commented that they almost didn’t recognize me - and asked what I was doing.

Top row: a night out with my daughter, with alcohol and sans.

Bottom row: with and without.

I didn’t want to be overly dramatic….I could easily produce photos where the difference would look even more stark.

Can you see a difference? Email me or comment below!
