Sorry you are under lots of stress. Hope you have a good weekend!

@joans1976 I loved seeing your photos too! @Womona I hear you- it's challenging to make good choices when you're in a group or celebrating a holiday. I'm drinking daily but LESS. Husband and I split a bottle of wine and that's it. Sometimes we start with a gin and tonic and then wine. I have slept very well nonetheless. I…

I will weigh in a little later and post. I'm just sipping coffee and enjoying a Sunday morning. I am now doing three programs- Noom, MFP, and now Omada. Omada is free through my insurance and my request to join finally came through. They send you a beautiful, snazzy scale. Noom has been paid for so I'll continue that- lots…

Sorry to hear about Bentley- @mfowler883 @joans1976 I have been reading all about your treatments- I am so amazed by your strength and positivity. Happy you slept better with the help of your gummies. I will go back to work this week. I am going to take my time, sit in my chair, and not push too hard. I have to focus on…

@Womona Ouch- that sounds positively painful. Wishing you well!

@cgm117 Thanks! I have a big vacation to another country in June- I hope I'll be back to normal by then. I have dumbells by the couch here and have been doing arm weights.

I'm going to probably be in the same boat. My ankle was sprained but since it's in a cast up to my knee, my ankle ligaments will probably be weak. I hope your foot gets better each day. xo

Yes, I'll check it out! HASFIT routines sound good!

Yes good thinking!!

@joans1976 Sounds like a great doctor! She really cares and has probably heard it all!

@Womona Nice job being AF. Thanks for your kind words. @forestdweller1 Hey, not a bad idea... sit and relax with an adult sippy cup!! Enjoy your beautiful 60 degree weather! @globalhiker Thanks for the sweet message.

I'm still around here - just reading your posts and enjoying them. You inspire me! I have had 5 days A and 1 day AF in March. I also broke my leg this weekend, so I will be sedentary for awhile. I was craving this afternoon but have no means to get to the fridge because I am on crutches- won't be able to fill a glass of…

This week's goals will be different, because I…

Came home from work on this dark rainy day and forced myself to go to the gym. I haven't been in weeks. I also find that when I go to the gym, I am less likely to drink wine. So - it's a win for me today.

Welcome to our group!!

20 A days 6 AF days Well, I sure didn't meet my goals for 14 days AF. The positives: Still lost 4 pounds this month Logged food and drink every day Didn't drink more than 2 glasses of wine on a work night. The negatives: Middle of the night self loathing - Why did I drink again? Increases feel of anxiety the next morning…

This past week's strategies: YES- Get at least 2 walks in outside- I walked four days outside. Somewhat- Eat fruit every day- Took berries to work one day NO- Go to the gym once (baby steps) YES - Log onto Noom and listen to audios 2/4 200 lbs 2/11 198.8 lbs. 2/17 197.8 2/19 196.8 2/26 196.2 Next week's goals: Walk outside…

@charlouiselb. I love sipping on broth. I find it comforting- I don't have time to make soup but I do have time to pour some stock / broth in a mug and warm it up. For the last few months, I have had a cough, so most nights, during the night, I wake up coughing and sip some water. By morning, I have sipped probably 8-12 oz…

This week's strategies: Yes- Get at least 2 walks in outside No-Eat fruit every day Not yet- Go to the gym once (baby steps) Yes- Log onto Noom and listen to audios 2/4 200 lbs 2/11 198.8 lbs. 2/17 197.8 lbs. Going in the right direction. I'm logging every day and weighing every day. It is working for me.

Thanks for the tip on isometric holds!

Positive goals accomplished yesterday: Limited to 2 glass of wine Ate a healthy dinner - pork tenderloin and a bit of noodles (portion control) No chocolate Walked 20 min. and lifted weights for the arms I'm trying to reduce my blood pressure so I bought a machine and took my first reading. It matched the doctor's office…

2/15 5 days AF 10 Days A Positive: I went for a walk. I kept it to two glasses of wine. I logged my food.

@200Karen Cute dogs!! I am babysitting this coming weekend. I'll keep you updated. I can't wait. I went for my annual physical and now have high blood pressure - just above normal. Doctor recommends: Daily monitoring by taking my BP at home. Reduce salt intake Walk 30 min. a day. I told her I know I can do this! She said…

5 days AF 9 days A Need a few AF days in a row to get some momentum. I think I can do this. I need 14 AF days this month to reach my goals.

@Sistersue3285 My deepest sympathies

As of 2/13 5 days AF 8 days A My goal this month is 14 days AF so I have to step up my game.

Sorry you fell!! Hmmm canyon! That sounds lovely.
