Start 11/3: 188 11/10: 186 GW by 2/1: 173 Keep up the good work everybody! @tracylorence start where you are, do what you can, seek out support when you need it. We're all in this together whether it's 10 pounds or 100 we want to lose.

Good for you! I'm on my 12th or 20th restart. Today is Day 3. I don't moderate well so abstinence is the way to go for me right now. Yes, I think indulging in yummy beverages as long as staying within daily calorie limit is a good idea. Think I'll try Orphia's bitters with lime & lemon. Hang in there, you can do this!

I've lost consistently (and very slowly) since my February restart. Eating most everything I did while i was packing the pounds on, difference now is portions. Weighing & measuring is crucial. Exercise is the key for me. Takes a lot of dedication, and it's worth it.

Just checked out your group and want to join! Have been post-menopausal since sugically induced at 43. .. struggling to age gracefully, never stop looking for the magic bullet :D

I'm trying hard to get my head back in the game. I'm in. Need the support to keep the daily dedication. CW: 188 GW by 2/1: 173 Keep up the good work everyone . Yay to all you losers! It sure isn't easy

Lots of dedication and nice losses! Keep it up everybody. We'll get there -- if we put in the effort!!

Good morning all! Happy Friday :) i had a great anniversary, enjoyed dinner out and 2 glasses of champagne. And then i quit! Too frequently in the past, I'd get home and say hmmmmm, wouldn't an after dinner drink be nice and then proceed to drink til drunk, munch on whatever i had in the pantry.... chips, nuts, cookies....…

That's a busy day!! Good for you! And great results seen on the scale!!

Still taking baby steps. Blew my day 7 on Monday. Now on Day 2 again. Anniversary celebration today. Can I skip the champagne? Or, if I do not, can I stop at 2 glasses? We’ll see. I do not like how I woke up feeling yesterday. Headachy. Nauseous. Exhausted. Regretful. Work tomorrow will be torture if I do a rerun of Monday…

I also grew up with alcoholics, married one, am one. So much here I can relate to. Is so hard to give up drinking, even with all the bad memories. There are so many good memories too. And bittersweet. Day 6 and feeling ok. Have a great day everyone. And as always, thanks for sharing <3

Day 5. Doing ok with it. Am in a funk due to some other issues that normally I'd deal with with drinks. Not going there. Decided to lay down for a siesta instead, be good to myself, take advantage of a clear schedule and relax. Hope everyone’s having a good weekend
