A few things I picked up on. I am the same height (5'7") and maintaining at 140lbs. You wrote you have been eating 1200 to 1500 calories for 4 weeks now and you are stuck at 194lbs. That is pretty much impossible because you are probably overestimating your calories. 1200- 1500calorie is way below what you need to eat to…

Hello everyone! Now that Alcohol is gone from my life, I am moving on to eliminating some toxic foods to hopefully reduce my joint inflammation issues. Going to eliminate for 10 days to see how I feel. I know it's the holiday season so there is no better time than now... lol Eliminate All dairy (milk and cheese) Sugar…

Welcome! You got this! :)

Hello all! Everyone is doing amazing! :) Starting my AF days over again because I had a real beer last Saturday! Ugg!! lol But the good news is the beer made me feel Nauses so I see that as a posiitive. I will probably have a glass of wine over the holidays to see how that sits in my body. :) AF - 4 cheers!

Very well said! :)

I have a dedicated desk job as well. I have a standup sit down desk. I stand for probably 6+hrrs per day alternating from sitting to standing. Also take frequent breaks and walks to keep the blood flowing to my legs. Humans were not meant to sit as much as we do... :)

Morning all! The most challenging days to be AF are upon us. My personal plan is to have none. The peer pressure will be over the top, but I will be strong and get through this with a clear head and a healthy attitude! :) cheers!

good luck! :)

Interesting post for sure. Most Canadians have no idea what they are consuming. I cringe when I see other people's grocery carts filled with garbage processed foods I wouldn't feed to my dog! Hopefully RFK can turn your country around someday... :)

Welcome! I'm in Southern Ontario and can see Detroit on a clear day... lol I used to deer hunt in Michigan and it's a great state indeed! :)

Great progress! :)

Hello my LA friends. Had a real craft beer on Saturday after being AF for 90days. :( I did this to see if I could moderate my consumption. Well about 30min after the beer I felt a weird nausea and immediately regrated it. I see this experiment as a positive because now I know, and it won't happen again. So, Sunday I…

Good progress! :)

Good morning my sober friends! Bad news good news. :) Bad news is I had a regular beer on Saturday. I just wanted to see what would happen. :) Good news is I hated it. Felt really crappy and nausea for about an hour after. :( So, there it is I now know that alcohol is 100% a no go for me, and I can carry on with my…

Hello all! Today is 90 days AF for me. :) This was my original goal I set for myself, and I did it. lol I'm actually afraid to drink again because I know I can't moderate. I wish I could but deep down inside I know it would be a terrible idea for to drink again. So, I will just take it one day at a time and once the…

Counted calories and 1hr walk per day. The big thing that helped me was giving up all alcohol. Lost 25lbs in 3 months. Currently maintaining. Male Age 55 Height 5'7" Weight today 140.5 Feeling great!

Fantastic results!

90 days AF today! woo hoo! Ill celebrate with a nice 0.0 beer tonight! :)

Wishing you all the best with your quest to be the best version you can be! :)

Very powerful message. When you stop drinking you give your body a chance to repair itself. If you don't stop drinking, you feed the chronic disease growing in your body. Yes, it is that simple!

Nicely done! :)

I don't accept FR anymore. The last few turned out to be scammers looking for easy $$...

You got this! :) We have an overnight stay on Dec 27th to the 28th in our Ontario wine country. Talk about tempting my journey to stay sober during the holidays... lol

welcome!

Nicely said. I have been maintaining a good weight for me for some time now. I am finding it to be fairly easy as long as I follow my master plan. :)

The moral of the story is don't believe everything on YouTube... lol

Go back into a calorie deficit to lose 1 to 2 lbs per week. You will be back to normal in no time.

Excellent work everyone :) AF - 85 days Oh so close to my goal of 90days AF... :)

You are absolutely correct! I'm way better off not drinking but that nagging little voice is saying try to moderate! lol I am finding it very easy to maintain my current weight by keeping alcohol out of my body. My best bet is to hit 90 days then make a new goal of 120days etc etc... :)

Hunting clothes! didn't need them but wanted them.. :)
