I just had oral surgery last week and drinking doesn't even sound good. Of course, being in pain and not drinking I have lost 3 pounds. So…

One of things that has helped me on MFP is under the notes section I type in all CAPS, NO ALCOHOL and hit save. So all day everyday that I track my note is there reminding me of what is possible. Not to say that any of our food/drink struggles are easier or harder than others; however, it does reel me back in. Just keep me…

Update, had great company, a wonderful meal and two martini's. No impact to speak of; however, I am back in the proverbial saddle. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I cannot completely relate, but I truly understand the position people are in. I have always been a casual drinker, but when my mom died in 2018 it nearly killed me and boy the drinking amped up. I was in so much pain I thought I would die or die trying outrun the pain. Then the pandemic hit and being self employed…

What made you decide to start this journey?

Just curious, how old are you? Great job. I'm 64, low thyroid (since I was 28). Work out 5 days a week and for the first time EVER yesterday I walked 5.2 miles NONSTOP. It felt great, but soon enough it will be way too hot and humid to do it on a consistent basis. Can you say heat stroke? Yep Houston in summer will kill…

I am trying to get back in the saddle again. One of my main goals (there are many) is to cut way back on alcohol. Thanksgiving, my birthday, then Christmas, then New Years. I know all I have done is eat and drink. Grateful for all I have, but overindulgence is not good for anyone. So, with that said I would love to be a…

Best of luck. Your are off to a great start.

You should be so proud. Hell, after reading your story....now I have NO EXCUSE. I will say Covid nearly killed me. Not in the literal sense. However, I was so depressed I would start drinking vodka at 930 in the morning and eating everything in sight. My business (professional pet sitter for 20 years) tanked. I had 22…

I get it. I have gained and have been mostly out of work. However, I am Covid negative (tested before hand surgery) but feeling more and more like a caged animal. I am eating low carb and have not had any alcohol since Monday. That is saying alot considering it has been a long time since March. I too am from the south so I…

I have just started back on keto. I did well a couple of years ago, but since Covid and no work...I find myself eating and drinking more for lack of nothing to do. Exercise can only go so far. Looking for any hope and encouragment.

I think we all make a fine group. I just don't want to be one of those souls listed as having comorbidity during this awful time. I am overweight for sure, but healthy overall and mostly grateful for I have been given in this life. I just would like to healthier and lighter.

Hello all! Will be 62 in December although I don't feel that old. I am trying so hard to get ahead of the Covid curve. I like many others have gained weight (mostly due to sitting on my fat *kitten* during lockdown) Being self employed and work based on other people traveling it has been very hard to stay ahead. I have…

actually *kitten* Storm is what I said, not kitten storm.

I am late to the party too, but would love to join in. What a *kitten* storm things have been since March. Gained weight in quarantine, A/C and hot water heater went out July 1st. Worked has slowed to a crawl due to Covid. Professional pet sitter and everyone canceled their travel plans.... Now the good news, I am not ill,…

No reason not to.

I am starting back on Keto today. Had success before, but need to get back at full speed. The first 2 weeks is the hardest, but I am up for the challenge. Hope there are others here to want to join the journey. I can use all the help I can get. Cheers to all and Happy 2020!
