"Sparkling water since we don't booze anymore," she began in the post, noting in parentheses they decided on the "personal choice" for their "overall health."

Briana Culberson details the "lifestyle changes" she's made over the years
In addition to her news about giving up alcohol, Briana shared an Instagram post on October 22 to her page to detail more about her wellness journey, first shutting down any speculation she's taken medication for weight loss.
"Over the past 4 years we’ve made many many lifestyle changes for our overall health and wellness. Clean eating, clean lifestyle, daily movement, daily choices, emotional healing, and targeted high quality supplements and essential oils have completely changed our lives inside and out," Briana wrote in the caption of the post, which featured numerous photos of herself and her husband.
"What’s more important to me are the changes on the inside," she added, further revealing how those lifestyle choices have helped her overall health.
"My lupus is in remission, undetectable on labs or symptoms. I’m off all medications (with the exception of my thyroid replacement for my thyroidectomy). My health hasn’t been this good in over 20 years," Briana shared. "There’s no magic pill or easy fix. It’s a lot of little daily choices and consistency that add up. I’m a better mom, better wife, better friend, better person now that my health and wellness are a priority. No gimmicks, no nasty medication, just staying consistent and being intentional with my daily choices."
