This woman replaced wine with walking and it changed her life When Pamela Wampler's doctor told her she needed to stop drinking, she was resistant. She didn't think she had a problem — but she did, and it was impacting her health.    Eventually, Wampler decided to heed her physician's advice. She replaced her evening wine with an evening walk with her husband. Now, she's been sober almost 9 months, she's lost 50 pounds, her relationship with her husband has improved and her health has, too!   That's a lot of benefits for one seemingly small habit change! Wampler says that giving up wine wasn't easy or comfortable, but that quitting drinking was definitely worth it.
