Day 19 of Dry July (19th July)
Welcome to Day 19 of DryJuly! Can you believe it? You’re now entering the third week of this transformative journey, and the positive changes are becoming even more apparent. One of the benefits you may be experiencing is a newfound sense of room around your waistline.
When you choose to abstain from alcohol, you’re not only eliminating its empty calories but also giving your body the opportunity to regulate its weight more effectively. Alcohol is known to contribute to weight gain and the accumulation of belly fat, so it’s no surprise that you might be noticing positive changes in your waistline.
By reaching Day 19, you’re likely witnessing the rewards of your commitment and the impact it’s having on your physical health. Embrace this moment and celebrate the progress you’ve made thus far.
However, it’s important to remember that the benefits of an alcohol-free lifestyle extend far beyond waistline measurements. Improved sleep, increased energy levels, mental clarity, emotional well-being, and enhanced overall health are just a few of the many positive outcomes you may be experiencing.
On Day 19, take a moment to reflect on the endless benefits of your decision to embrace an alcohol-free lifestyle. Celebrate the positive changes, both visible and invisible, that are unfolding within you. Allow yourself to fully appreciate the journey you’re on and the transformative power it holds.
As you continue to prioritize your well-being, remember that sustainable change takes time and consistency. Stay committed to making healthy choices, nourishing your body, and engaging in activities that bring you joy and fulfillment.
Cheers to Day 19, where you revel in the sense of room around your waistline and the countless other benefits you’re experiencing. Raise a glass (of your favourite non-alcoholic beverage) to your achievements, and let each day reinforce your commitment to a healthier, alcohol-free life. Embrace the journey, embrace your progress, and let your inner and outer transformation continue to unfold.
Day 19 of DryJuly. Into your third week now and you may even be feeling a little more room around your waistline. Benefits are endless.
FACT
Alcohol irritates your digestive system. Drinking – even a little – makes your stomach produce more acid than usual, which can, in turn, cause gastritis (the inflammation of the stomach lining).
