Good day yesterday with food. Not so good with the drinking. I have to make a plan that I can stick with. I am usually good with the 3 drinks before, during and after dinner but I still went over. I had an additional one during dinner and another one after. I am not ready to give up drinking entirely but I do need to have a plan that I am going to stick with. I know there are some podcasts out there that deal with this so I am going to listen. I really don't think it has to do with the drinking at all, it is more like the experience. If that makes sense. I would be just as happy having juice or something non alcoholic in a cute glass. Obviously something I need to work on and figure out before the summer. I also have a dinner and comedy show tonight so I am planning on limiting drinking to 2 drinks if even that. I won't drink before or during dinner. I will have a drink as we are gathering at the bar but if we aren't going to be there long, I won't. I will also only have one at the place. I don't plan to return to the bar. I will uber home if necessary. Ok-the rest of the day should be a breeze lol! so I need to get moving. Have a great day everyone!

Also a question for the menopausal or post menopausal women-I seem to be having more and more hot flashes. I had one last night that was so bad I had to go sit by an open window. I think part of it was I didn’t want to sweat. I know one of my friends had terrible night sweats. It took me an hour to cool down and settle back to sleep. Just curious what others have experienced

@Cafelelia It is so nice to have a trip to look forward to. My brother lived in Phoenix, he moved to the mountains where it cooler lol! I love Phoenix and you are going at the perfect time.
@Mrsbell8well Hang in there Angelina! It is a little scary but I wonder if your father was under a doctors care. I know back then people ignored a lot of signs and symptoms and didn't like to go to the doctors. Especially men. Just think, you are at a healthy weight, in good shape so if there is something wrong, you are in the best possible condition to fight it. Your timing was perfect, your recovery would have been a lot more difficult 2 years ago. Hugs, Hugs and more hugs to you!
@kirsten11872 Sounds like 2 great days in a row! Awesome! I think you have a good plan for the day. I love Hibachi, I haven't been to one in a while. Enjoy!
@tryingagain5 Nice loss! Goodbye 190s!! I need to stop stalling and join you! Sounds like you had a good day. I am so impressed that you get up after 41/2 hours go work out. You should give yourself a big pat on the back for doing that. I am glad that your dad is feeling better. It is always a good sign when they are back to their feisty selves! Lol!
@freeglerock Awesome job with the smoking! I know that isn't easy! Remember we are here if you need us. You really are taking the time to plan and be healthy even with all that is going on. That is so important. Keep it going!
@hope002 Looking good!! Wow!! How exciting to see all your progress. I am so happy you post, I remember you starting and it was hard for you at first but that didn't seem to last long. I don't know if I could ever fast as long as you did but I am determined to do the 14-16 hour fasts more consistently. How tall are you? I also am curious how you know your body fat percentage?
@starcrystal3 I have been there with surviving the day on snacks and then being so ravenous you end up overeating when you finally have a meal. Good job Wednesday though!
@JillyBT Another awesome day!! Your days are motivating me to get myself moving!
@xX_PhoenixRising_Xx I love how you can already feel yourself getting stronger. I hope today you enjoy the holiday. Do you have special plans or is it a day for relaxing?
@brown6267 Excellent steps! Hope all is going well!
@rundgrenrocks Nice loss! Excellent start to February!! I want to get better with exercising in the morning too. I not only forget but also the day seems to get away from me and is over so quickly lol!
@nstephenson01 Wow! Awesome loss! It sounds like you are in a good routine. Food prepping always makes the week easier. Good luck with that snow, we are still waiting for some. Just rain for the next few days here in Philly.

Only a small loss. That's ok. I guess. Today I went and saw the neurosurgeon, I'm going to have epidural shots and then we will talk surgery if they dont work. I have had them in the past. First time they worked temporarily second time nothing. I'm not hopeful. Surgery makes me nervous.

@Mrsbell8well glad your doing well and resting.

Okay introductions. My name is Rosie, I live in Australia & have been vegan for just over a year now & loving it for life. This is my 2nd month with team Weight No More. In January I lost 3.55 Kg / 7.82 lbs, so I’m excited & hope it’s the same for February! My goal weight is 57 Kg / 125.66 lbs, so I have 8.75 Kg / 19.30 lbs to loose. Thanks so much everyone for the kind & fantastic motivation during January – I appreciate it so much! It’s amazing how being part of a team makes you extra committed to the challenge too! It’s also wonderful what I have learnt from you all & I enjoy reading everyone’s posts although I can't respond as often as I wish!

Thanks to Angelina (@Mrsbell8well) sharing her knowledge & great results, I’m also going to try this gut healing diet of Dr Gundry this upcoming 2 weeks & after reading up on it I’m sure this is finally the one that will heal my gut completely. After those 2 weeks I will be doing Dr Gundry’s Keto diet for the next 3 months to reverse my Type II Diabetes (so want this hypoglycemia to end for good!) – I’m So Excited, & didn’t expect that awesome bonus!!! I’m also in the process of curing my Adrenal Exhaustion the last 3 months (with an online Naturopathic course), it’s slow going but after 10 years of being extremely weak & sick (barely able to feed & shower myself), my endless search for the cures are finally here & I’m seeing Awesome results the last couple of months – on good days I can even exercise now & without crashing for days after! Never ever give up!

My goals are always to be as fit & healthy as possible! I love nature & each beautiful new day.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!
