I'm logging today! It's been a while

mistyladidah

I haven't logged food in a while, since my booze consumption is sort of a lot. I ALWAYS go way over on sugar, and calories as well, and tend not to make good choices food-wise anyway. Today, because of this group, I did it. :bigsmile:

I made progressive choices for lunch and after logging that decided I was having salad for dinner... so I WALKED to the farmers market down the road and bought lettuce. My pace was slow, due to a little boy who had to stop at EVERY desiccated slug (at least there were only three), but still was there and back in 35 minutes, and it's about 1.5 miles. I am going over what MFP says for calories, but you know what? I don't care, because I know what I'm eating, and more importantly DRINKING... I need that. Plus I got exercise out of it!

So thanks again for starting this awesome group!

I'm still going! Yay! I've been as true as memory allows with logging and today so far have totally resisted the siren song of the gin and whisky and instead popped open the bottle of wine I bought yesterday. WooHOO!!!! :drinker: :bigsmile:

My hardest day has been the Fourth when holiday and hormones collided in my lower abdomen. :grumble: Even then I did ok though... all things considered.

Just had to toot my horn a tad!

How's it going for everyone else?

I was very good over the weekend! The only time I drank was on Satruday for my BF's birthday, his dad bought us a 12 pack (cause thats what we usualy get when we go there) so I just enjoyed myself that day, but was very good the other days despite all the temptations last week :P

Yay! Nothing wrong with a few cold beers on a hot Saturday!

It feels so awesome to slow down. I still haven't had any liquor, and haven't finished a bottle of wine in a day for a few. Since I have my wine, and my husband has his own booze, I can just go at my own pace, and I'm much slower than with liquor. Soon I won't even be having wine every day! Now if I would just get off my butt and exercise...

OK, I haven't logged yet, mainly because I haven't started trying yet. These hot summer days are especially screaming "drink a cold beer, girl!" and of course I do. Although, it is Tuesday, and I guess I haven't had a drop in three days, so that is progress, right?

How are you all doing?

mistyladidah

Katie- That's totally progress! I'm lucky it's not hot here or it would be SO much harder!

I had a bad day in terms of drinking a couple days ago, after 3 beers my husband and I needed to get to sleep to wake up early so we decided to take shots. :huh: I felt way icky when I woke up, and it didn't even work, since we were still up way too late. Yesterday was way better though, two beers and finishing an open bottle of wine. I even stayed under calories!
