Similar story here- 34 at the time and a regular social drinker, I decided not to drink one day on a whim (actually just intended to see how hard it would be to abstain for a while) but felt so great without hangovers and just generally so much more energy that I stuck with it. 5 years now and really happy with that development. I have book club 9am on Sundays now, that would have absolutely been out of the question in the before-time.

It really feels like an insane hack in the beginning, how much more time and energy there is.
