TERI!!!! I AMMMMM SOOOO HAPPY FOR YOU GIRL!!! what?! you are ROCKING THIS!!! I am so damn proud I could HUG YOU!!!

Look up Rachel Hart hon, she has a podcast as well as a site, its helped me SOOOO MUCH- i think it will help you too! x

thanks so much for the encouragement doll!! Last night i felt like a drink so bad, instead i got dressed and went to the gym and ran my *kitten* off!! 3 miles between 7 and 8m speed, crushed it! Went home, made the boys dinner, had some seltzer water and took my *kitten* to bed ! WIN

WELCOME! and it is never too late to join us! Glad you are here !

I started off really strong, was going into weekend number 2 AF. Friday was a breeze, saturday we even went out to eat and i didnt order booze, order seltzer water! YESTERDAY however, girls came over and I cooked and drank a half bottle of pinot by myself and two shots of tequila. Woke up beating myself up cos i was going…

YOU GOT THIS SWEETHEART!!!!! KEEP GOING- SMALL STEPS!

I need to start doing that. I absolutely hate going to the supermarket. It’s the chore that never ends. I’ve started paying my sons to go shopping for me. Win win, they earn some money and I don’t have to do it! [/quote] REALLY? I LOOOOOVE going food shopping, its like my meditating time lol. and I absolutely LOVE the UK…

GOOD FOR YOU TERI!!!! Another thing I learned listening to Rachel Hart... PAUSE.... JUST PAUSE...... let the "DESIRE" pass and it WILL pass, i promise. So tonight at dinner, after you have your drink, PAUSE, when you are saying "one more"... PAUSE YOU GOT THIS LOVE!

I am frank the tank in my crew LOL- shamefully!!! BUT we got this!!! I literally have a cupboard FULL of alcohol and I spent all weekend seeing it as i cooked and not ONCE was i tempted. I said to myself "you dont NEED IT, you WANT IT, but for what?!!" worked like a charm

SAME!!! Glad to know I am not the only one slamming back hard alcohol LOL

Listen to this! It talks about "urges" and habits!! https://www.rachelhart.com/resetwelcome/

March has started STRONG for me and i intend to keep it that way. Had a glass of prosecco March 1 and 3 shots. Then for the first time in a LOOOOOOOOONG time I went the entire weekend without a single drop and without WANTING IT!! I dont know if anyone has heard of Rachel Hart, but I joined this 5 day reset challenge and…

LOL at least you are honest- keep trying!

I am glad you are in the place you are in today! Good for you. OH MY A BREWERY! I would be a loyal customer LOL

I see alot of folks here talking about replacing the alcohol with bitters etc. It never dawned on me that its the flavor that is craved. HONESTLY for ME personally, i just want the BUZZ, i want that lull - now that i type this, it even sounds ridiculous to want to be in a lull - lol I dont much care for the taste of a lot…

The fact that you are here sharing with us is inspiration, so dont think you dont have something to offer us. Good for you that you are making a plan- that is a fantastic first step. YOU GOT THIS!

drag myself back in here to tell you all that since last thursday I've been drinking something daily LOL! I am HOWEVER stopping myself and saying "ok enough, you have your buzz, now cut it out"..... For V Day only had 3 glasses of wine (we usually get 3-4 bottles) between us (6 people) so that was a big improvement. My…

Turned 40 in September and I honestly still feel as if I am in my 20's! Where has time gone?!

AH- vanity is what has kept me at bay many a times- ashamed to admit LOL. When I would think of how I would look the next morning, OR when I did wake up looking like a cabbage patch, that would straighten me out quickly and I wouldnt drink for a few days... all for vanity. BUT now mostly, because at week 2 of not drinking…

THANK YOU- i stayed busy Friday so didnt even think of drinking! on Saturday I totally could have drank WAY more since EVERYONE was drinking heavy, but I wanted to be the sober one, and it's interesting how others look drinking when you are.....

No judging here darling, only truth's and encouragement and lots of support!

Went AF Friday night, which is great for me! Saturday was planning on it, but went to a after mass food event and had a glass of prosecco and two shots... again, thats pretty LIGHT for me so I am proud I STOPPED. Sunday- started with the best intentions, was food prepping, ONE shot turned into 5- all while I cooked. But I…

I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE everything you said on here, EVERYTHING!

Thank you for sharing Teri. A few years back while on vacation with a huge group of friends (we were still in our late 20's!!) one of the girls had a cocktail for breakfast, and even on vacation we were ALL appalled, even for us that were partying hard, young and free. And i remember a few talking behind her back saying…

Original starting weight -137Lbs at my HIGHEST February starting weight -124 February goal - 120 Ultimate goal -118

Wasnt trying to "trash" anyone, from MY experience it just seems off that someone that height would have such a low weight, but alas, you are proving me wrong! I stand corrected!

YOU are on this weight loss journey- not your MIL or your husband. Therefore YOU are responsible for your actions and will power, NOT them. Be INTENTIONAL with your goals and dont focus on what others are doing or not doing around you. Sounds harsh, but you started this journey for YOU , so remember that when she brings…

TODAY IS A NEW DAY! you got this

OH and MY confession? I want to drink a big glass of wine when I get home but I promised myself I wouldnt have any drinks during the week (only for v day) and i am sorta struggling ((cries in spanish))
