John Mayer is celebrating a huge milestone this week—and it has nothing to do with being Katy Perry's no. 1 former lover.

The Grammy-winning singer/songwriter announced on Twitter that Tuesday marked one full year without a single drop of alcohol.

"One year ago today, I decided to give drinking a break," the singer tweeted in a thread. "A very personal thing for everyone. For me, a constant return on investment...I post this because I want people to know that ‘that’s enough for now’ is on the menu, so to speak."

I post this because I want people to know that “that’s enough for now” is on the menu, so to speak. — John Mayer (@JohnMayer) October 24, 2017

In June, Mayer explained to Rolling Stone that he replaced his alcohol habit with smoking pot, noting that he put cannabis where “drinking used to go.” He added, “...the quality of life has gone up considerably. Drinking is a fucking con. How much is enough? Every time I drank, I was looking for some sort of regulated amount. It always feels wrong for me. I always feel like I went overboard. ‘I said two, now it's three, now we're at four?’”

Mayer explained that he never felt like he had a serious issue with alcohol, but that he simply looked around one day and it no longer fit into his life.

“I remember looking around going,‘This feels rigged. I'm taking a break,’” he said. “There's never an amount that felt like I was succeeding at life. It always felt wrong.”

And he may be onto something with his extended break from booze. As Dr. Damon Raskin, a Los Angeles-based physician who is board certified in addiction medicine, previously told Australian Men’s Health, “Taking a break from drinking alcohol—even if it’s just for a couple of weeks—is a good idea, especially if you’re regularly consuming more than the recommended daily limit.”

As Raskin explained, by giving up booze you’ll not only save money on your bar bill, you’ll also sleep more soundly, lose weight, and your cancer risk will plummet (though your heart disease risk may actually rise). Of course, marijuana—despite having a number of benefits—comes with its own set of health concerns, too.

It appears Mayer’s new lifestyle is working wonders for him; he's been traveling the globe with friends in celebration of his 40th birthday and singing in sold out arenas. The alcohol-free musician is certainly living, well, the high life.
