First day of Sober October. Anyone else doing it as well?

Hi. I’m a 32-year-old male, social drinker, drink twice a week on my Friday and Saturday evenings, 2-3 drinks max. I drink light beer, red wine, whiskey, scotch, bourbon, and rum as my normal go-to drinks, and occasionally champagne which I usually around Thanksgiving, the holidays, and other celebrations. I enjoy a cigar once a week with a glass of liquor of my choice.

I decided to try Sober October for both health and fitness reasons. I’m on a regimen that consists of heavy low-rep lifting (StrongLifts 5×5) three days a week and Krav Maga training twice a week on non-lifting days. So I decided to give up both alcohol and cigars for the entire month of October. My first time ever abstaining from alcohol for one whole month.

Is there anyone here who does Sober October as well? What has your experience been like in the past?
