Hi, like my subject says... I DL'd MFP on May 6. So far I am down 6 pounds (and have another weigh in this Friday). I am enjoying this so far, but have to admit that it's a bit challenging because I looove Happy Hour and dont know how to eat OUT and stay within my calories. Do I have to give up alcohol forever? LOL

    No you don't have to give up alcohol! You can still have it like everything else but in moderation.
    If I'm planning on having a couple of glasses of wine with my evening meal or if I'm going out then I do a bit more exercise during the day so that I get some extra calories, it really is that simple! I've only been doing this 2 weeks and so far lost 9lb and I've not given up alcohol, or chocolate for that matter! lol :laugh:
