@Darlene_Oregon - I quit Jan 1st but there have been about 6 or 7 days during that time when I've drank. Btw - I joined the 5% group. Positively Strong 4 Life was closed so I joined Rain Dancers.

Rain Dancers please.

Hi @Darlene_Oregon - you are so right about not smoking. I learned that the hard way. I had quit for five years and one day decided I could just have one. Well that led to 5 more years of smoking. The last two years I've been on and off but now I'm really off and I don't ever want to go back. I'm sorry to hear you are…

Hope everyone is doing well. @Darlene_Oregon - you mentioned numbers changing when you quit drinking. What I can't believe is how much drinking affected my base heart rate. When I was drinking daily my bhr was in the 80s. Since I've mostly quit (had two days since January where I had 1 Guinness) my bhr has gone down to…

@Darlene_Oregon - I think you are very brave. It sounds like you and your husband have survived and overcome a lot. Shows a lot of strength and courage. One day at a time.

@AmberlyMarlene - Good for you!!! It must be nice to have people notice too. I hear you about the sleep - I'm still struggling a bit and it has been since Jan 1st for me with one slip up on the 27th. @Darlene_Oregon - It is harder the older we get. I think the habit becomes more ingrained. Hang in there I know it is tough…

@Darlen_Oregon - it shouldn't have been so hard for you or anyone else to get help. I'm sorry you had go go through all that. @SparkSpringtime69 yes! I hope we accomplish great things together as well. To all of us who are aiming to stay sober this weekend - we got this!

So happy to have found all of you. I've abused alcohol for most of my life. When I was young it was the weekend binge. As I got my career and got older it became heavy daily drinking. I have many many memories that I'm not proud of. I've been straddling between moderation and abstinence for almost a year now. But often my…

Hi all! I'm really happy to be in this challenge with all of you. I've struggled with my weight since my 20s (am 50 now). I lost a lot of weight 2 years ago but gained most of it back during the lockdowns (working from home is NOT good for me!). I'm here because I want to stay motivated and accountable and want to help…

Heh its great that you are recognizing the need for support! And that you are making positive steps for yourself. I've been on MFP for awhile now too and have been hesitating to join the community but would like to do so. You can add me as a friend if you'd like.
