Meatball surviving without wine

Options
Hi all, I'm back on board & on day 5 of "No wine" to progress in my weight loss. It had become a nasty habit of empty sugar calories that I just found going to fat!!!...so it only took me a few years to realize the denial :drinker:

Support needed of anyone that loves that glass of wine or 2 or 3 every evening when they just want to escape from the crazyness of kids/work....:smile:

    I LOVE wine. I gave it up for Lent I love it so much. I do miss it.

    Today my mom called and asked if I was going to the wine tasting tonight. I reminded her I gave up wine for Lent. She told me (jokingly) that I was sabotaging family time. You can tell my fam loves wine.

    Add me for support if you like. I totally get you!

    Well done Neller, I too have realised that the old vino has been nothing but trouble in my quest to lose the pounds and have managed to last 6 days without a drop touching my lips but it is harder than I imagined! That kinda sounds like I have a wee problem now that I read it lol ;o) Anyway weekends are definitely the hardest so lets hope we can muddle through it eh? ;o)

    Keep up the good work!

    I soooo miss wine and beer! I would have a glass of wine or bottle of beer each night. But I realized it was adding 100-175 calories a day.
