The main thing is I'm just not eating all the shit I would eat while drinking. I'm not getting a fucking kebab at 3 a.m., then backing it up with some KFC in the morning and then some spaghetti bolognese in the afternoon and then for four days afterwards, depression eating.
Picture this: a comedian who once thrived on wild nights and boozy escapades now sharing his journey to sobriety in just five minutes a day. In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', David Boyle takes listeners through a nostalgic trip down memory lane, sparked by an old photo of himself.
This moment of reflection becomes a catalyst for change, as Boyle discusses the challenges of maintaining a healthy diet while drinking and the surprising benefits he's experienced since quitting alcohol, including weight loss.
