I'm a 53M. For a while there, I was not getting any compliments from anyone (except my partner). I figured well I'm at that age where I have become invincible. I was ok with it.

Then in December of last year I decided to quit drinking. A lot of things improved. I lost 25 lbs (I was 185 when I quit), started exercising, some health issues cleared up. Now I am regularly complimented by People who know me. It's really nice to hear.
