David Boyle's Battle with Focus: Sobriety and Health in Tandem

I was lying in bed last night alone because my wife was out doing mdma and I was lying on my side and I could feel my fat stomach like droop down onto the mattress, like it wasn't fully integrated into my fucking body.
How do you stay on track with health goals while navigating sobriety? In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle opens up about his ongoing struggles to stay focused on his fitness and well-being. With his trademark humor, Boyle delves into the challenges of maintaining a healthy diet, the sneaky impact of sugar, and the importance of setting and tracking goals. He even shares a quirky strategy he picked up from a podcast by Seinfeld.
'If I can do all those things for days without missing anything,' Boyle muses, 'then when I get to the UK, I'll be able to go on a month-long ket bender because I'll have earned it'. Of course, staying focused is no easy feat, especially when life throws curveballs. Boyle admits that avoiding sugar is his lifeline: 'Not eating sugar is the only thing keeping me like this, which is dad bod hard'.
Despite the hurdles, Boyle's candid reflections provide an inspiring and often humorous look at the highs and lows of sobriety. Tune in for a dose of laughter and real talk about the ongoing journey of quitting alcohol.
