Going on vacation today. Hopefully a break from my drinking will set a foundation for February and beyond.
Enjoy yourself. As for the drinking, sobriety is the best gift I've ever given myself. You can do it if your plan is to stop drinking. It definitely won't be easy but you deserve to do that for yourself.
You can spend them on rewards, like hotel points. I've used mine for golf balls for my daughter and an air fryer and a steam mop. The steam mop was back ordered due to covid, but it finally showed up and it's great!
Sad to see my points balance go down, but worth it.
Starting to regret posting in MFP. When I told people I had body image issues, they ridiculed me and said I was stupid for resenting/hating the remarks I got and that I didn't have real problems because some people would dig how I looked, hence I had no reason to hate it.
I don't want people to tell me I look awesome how I am (I don't even have any real pix posted here). I don't want to hear how brave and strong and great I am because if I was that way, I wouldn't be this overweight. I don't want people to give me platitudes about "each journey starts with a single step", even though I acknowledge they mean well and want to encourage me.
I haven't completely given up on myself, but is there a corner in MFP for jaded/cynical people who don't like or respond to "you can do it!" messages from strangers or about how it's wrong to lose weight before you date because The Right Person Will See Your Inner Beauty and Will Not Care What You Look Like Because Only Shallow People Who Are Not Worth Your Time Do That?
I feel this at my core. People will never understand that we don't see ourselves as others do. And, no amount of compliments or good will from others will change our opinions.

Try to show some respect.
I will pay tribute by missing every shot I don’t take.

I’m smelling the farmers spreading manure.
No chicken *kitten* so it still smells wonderful.
I think it's total reactions to your posts
They seem “pointless”, 😂

I dunno but I'd hand over at least that many points for all your amazing PPs.
I missed you in these threads, my friend 😛
☺️ Just chilling in the back woods trying to stay around by limiting my natural tendency to cause hate and discontent my friend.

Thank you beautiful lady! ❤️
Oh and you get "bonus" points for badges.
