Good reminder about what happens when we take a break from exercise @MissMay. I incurred a small injury (lower back) almost two weeks ago and Ice, and the chiropractor had to take the place of the gym. I have been walking but back to the gym tomorrow! Easing back into my workout routine-we think we shouldn’t but in reality it helps healing. I need it.
I track daily/weekly wine stats and have low limits. AF yesterday and today, planning up to 5 for a personal best by this Sunday.4 -
I love your post! Agree a great way to start a new week, or day…..I find I’m much more focused if I think about these, set a plan and make sure I keep them top of mind for overall health!

Sat was a planned drinking night at a party. I had two normal (12oz, ~%4) beers during the gathering. My mistake was to have a whiskey nightcap. I have reduced tolerance from the two past dry months: it kept me up all night. Not worth it!

8 AF
3A
(A means 3+; LA means 1-2; and AF means none)

@Jthanmyfitnesspal your post reminds me I have not put this up in awhile. Hope your sleep has improved since Saturday night.

Good morning everyone!
I've made the decision to become completely AF. My initial goal is to go 90 days AF. But, after that, I will most likely continue because I think those of you that have been around for a while know that moderation doesn't work for me.
Without going into a lot of details, I've been having quite a few physical issues recently, and through research, it turns out that every one of them is related to alcohol consumption. More specifically, the fact that alcohol consumption causes vitamin and mineral deficiencies. I try very hard to eat a healthy diet and then I'm sabotaging myself with daily drinking. Sounds kind of stupid…doesn't it?
Plus, from past experience, I will lose weight quickly, regain my balance and coordination, and have more energy to do the things that I like to do.
So…Day 1 begins! 🙂

@itladyee thank you for the birthday card and the condolences.
@Womona glad the quote thing is working for you. @SurferGirl1982 I didn't realize the quotes are no longer editable, that really is a bummer. I'm with you - I would often edit for just the sentence or two to which I was replying. Congrats to MFP, one step forward, two steps back 😣. At least they have lots of emojis now instead of just the 5 or 6 they used to have.
Welcome to the newcomers: @strong_fit_ells and @connor_manning I think you'll find this to be a very friendly and supportive crowd no matter where you are in your LA or AF journey.
@MissMay that two-week stat is really frightening me; I've been missing the gym a lot over the last two months. Hopefully when I get back from vacation in a couple of weeks (leaving next Tues and will be gone about 10 days) I will get back into a regular routine again.

@NonnieDoiron and @globalhiker the street next to us used to have litter sign that was oddly specific, it said the littering fine was $1039.50, yes it actually said 50 cents! It was just replace about 6 months ago with a new sign that now says "over $1000.00". I guess that way they can keep changing the fine without changing a bunch of signs.
