I feel the same. My sons gf was quizzing me about my past just the week prior. And upon disclosing things in front of my kids my voice was breaking. And I didnt sleep well that night. And the thoughts rolled into the next day. And it occurred to me I never dealt with things. I need to do that to heal and then maybe I wont…

I swore I was going to get my act together yesterday. I got on the scale this morning and all these shinanigans have me up 5lbs. My daughter told ne to just get back on track Monday its more realistic for me. Ill be out of the house and back to work. Why is it so hard when Im home? No self control whatsoever.

Hi @RubyRed427. I'd like to join in here too if I may. I'd like to lose 10 or 15 pounds to be at a more healthy weight for my height. Ultimately I make a habit out of Everything including food and need the accountability. Thanks so much for starting this. I hope everyone had a nice holiday.

Hi @donimfp Im glad you were intercepted. God works in mysterious ways sometimes. I hope everyone can get through the holidays "slip free". There is a major association with holidays and drinking. We have to be strong especially right now. 💞

I know. Find it hard to label myself alcoholic. Am I. Idk. I have an addiction to almost anything food. Smokes. When I smoked it was a pack a day easily. I was having a conversation with my daughter whose almost 21. I was saying how it would be nice to have champagne for xmas. Ever since I was young my grandmother would…

Your not alone. I am blowing it lately. I came home from work and ate chocolate cake and a half bag of gold fish🐠. I skip meals for junkfood. And on top if that I complain Im tired all the time. Im sure my diet is most of the issue. Dont beat yourself up. Youve accomplished alot. Some days I remind myself...in the old days…

Its unbelievable. I got another reminder of how sickening alcohol is and thought Id air out the dirty laundry(literally) My husband was talking it up yesterday how fun it would be to have "one". Hes lost so much weight since quitting...hes been so good hes earned it. "Lets have one". Pulled in to the packy. I waited in the…

Just stopping in to say hi. Everyone is doing great! Ive been reading just nothing to really add. Except today marks a year and 8 months. Thats a mind blower. My husband is cranking on 3 months now. Hes relishing on the thought of beer tho. I dont know really wether he'll pick it back up for sure or not. My boss is a hot…

Im sure he wishes you were home drinking with him. He'll turn it around eventually. If mine has theres hope. Speaking of mine hes down 8 pounds. Water weight im positive of that but he loses weight fast anyway. Another Af benefit

Just popping in to say hi. Bought a bottle of wine this weekend. I was trying to replicate a meal. It was the largest wine bottle in the whole section but the only one I could find of that brand. It was like an elephant in the room. I only needed a cup. I wondered what just a sip would do to my progress. It was such an…

Thank you

Happy Birthday!! Hope its a great one!

Thats true. The second we think we got this think again. I thought I was deserving of some Birthday wine with my birthday dinner. Its funny that I entertained the idea. I dont even like wine. Just seeking that break from reality let loose happy feeling. I didnt. Ate all the birthday cake and food though. Had zero control…
-
Congrats@ JenT304 you made me laugh about your husband talking through the show. Mine does that and repeats what they are saying like I didnt hear it the first time. Unless its "his show" then Im only allowed to talk during commercials lol. Maybe thatll change when he quits. @RubyRed427 I hope you are on the mend ♥ Happy…

Thanks Jen it would be nice to try them. @no44s4me congrats on the 18 mos and 40 lbs! Same here with the nighttime selzers. Today I actually bought grapefruit selzer and splashed it with diet grapefruit juice. Needed a change. Its definitely a habit. Im not that thirsty either.

Forgot to add Im on the year and a half mark!
-
Congrats everyone on the milestones! Just came back from vaca and the thought crossed my mind more than once. Seems like it would go hand in hand palm trees sunny weather..I didn't. I know my kids are proud of me. Even tho they dont say anything. Id be a real jerk to blow that. Thanks to you all for all your insight wont…
