Hi Chris @LowTechForever , welcome back! Happy June 1st! I am totally recommitting to being 100% alcohol-FREE! I'll never give up. I'm in a 2-year program to change my lifestyle for the better and I plan to stick with it this time!

Hi everyone, Here are my stats from Wednesday, May 20th Key measurements taken: B: 41.0"/W: 38.5"/H: 40.5/P: 45.0" My weight has actually gone UP since then! Time to strengthen my resolve! I will report weight updates every Wednesday going forward to match to with weigh-ins for the Path to Lifestyle Change program I joined…

Hi everyone, Hey I go again... @SunnyDays930 - I'm resetting too! June 1st. I'd like to start on the first on the month because it's "cleaner" and makes it easier to count up the months.

Hi Melanie @dvmmcw7442, Hi everyone I've been doing a lot of debauchery lately!The scale said over 165 this morning. I'm going to clear this bookmark and try to focus on only up to three challenges at a time. "Never give up, for that is just the place and time where the tide will turn."

Hi Donna, @deepwoodslady! So glad you chose to join! I love your colorful, cheerful posts! I will post weights every Wednesday and will post stats on the first day and every five weeks for side-by-side side comparison to show progress (six weeks for the end, since we have 31 weeks in this challenge).🌹

Hi everyone, In addition to this Ongoing Sober discussion board and my Spring into Summer challenge, I am starting a new one beginning this Wednesday, May 28th. Here is the link: This Wednesday will be 31 weeks until New Year's Eve. I'm sure I can lose at least 20 lbs. by then. This is IT. (I'm going to stay SOBER too!)…

Hi, Here is the link to the challenge I will be starting on Wednesday, May 28th, which is 31 weeks until New Year's Eve: All are welcome! 💞 Carole

The new challenge I will be starting on Wednesday, May 28th can be found here: All are welcome! 💞

Hi everyone, I wasn't sure whether we are officially friends already, but I would like to invite you because I'm starting a new challenge this Wednesday, May 28th and might jump off some of the other boards to keep it simple, since I will be devoting a lot of time to the outside program I just joined. I will keep the…

I will report my weight here on Wednesday but then will clear the bookmark and begin fresh on the 20-30 lbs. by New Year's Eve challenge. I will also include the link here in case you'd like to join me there! Enjoy your day! 💞 Carole

FANTASTIC, Melanie! You're doing amazing! 🌹

I'm also quitting alcohol. It's expensive and only causes trouble. I have now passed my 5-day milestone. 💞 Carole

WOW, Melanie, You've been doing Great! My scale says 164 on Thursday, but my official "Path to Lifestyle Change" program starts on Wednesday, May 28th. I will reset my start date then. I know this challenge is only for a few more weeks, but I'm in another one that's ends on June 20th and another that ends on July 31st; so…

So, here I go again. May 21st (my mother's birthday) is my fresh "DAY ONE"! "A word of encouragement during failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success." - Sober Time's message for May 21, 2025. YES, I CAN! NEVER GIVE UP! 💗 Carole

Hi Melanie, I'm with you! I feel exactly the same way about the last 4 weeks. I didn't want to report my weight today either. You've been doing so much! You deserve a break! Hi everyone, My scale said 165 this morning! I have trouble accepting that (heavy, late meal last night); so I will wait until tomorrow morning to…

Hi everyone, My scale said 165 this morning! I have trouble accepting that (heavy, late meal last night); so I will wait until tomorrow morning to post my new, reset weight (whatever it is), but will switch to Wednesday weigh-ins beginning of May 28th, the first day of my two-year, "Path to Lifestyle Change" program. Your…

Whoa - only 4 weeks left in this challenge! I plan to make them count! Starting tomorrow, I'll resume calorie and step/other activity logging. I will weigh-in here and on other boards on Wednesdays, beginning May 21st and will post my June 15th weigh-in as well for the end of this challenge. Have a nice evening, 💗 Carole

Good morning @dvmmcw7442 (Melanie): WOW! You've sure been getting your activity in! I find I don't process alcohol as well anymore either. I always ask the same way after drinking - why did I do this when I know I'll feel lousy for the next day or two. Today is Day 3 with no alcohol for me, but I plan to restart me…

Good morning, @dvmmcw7442 Hi Melanie, no alcohol yesterday. I'm more of a "binger' when I drink - so I'm safer not even having one...Ever. I always feel terrible the next day or two, with extremely elevated blood, and I look terrible too! Congratulations on getting your steps and workout in, even though you were very busy!…

Hi everyone, @RubyRed427 - Hello! Yes, I think rollercoaster is a good analogy to what so many are going through right now. I am very sensitive as well, which makes these days even more challenging… I picked my mother's birthday as my official, "Soberversary" reset date because I'm hoping that it will help me to stay with…

Hi everyone, I'm so glad you're still visiting and posting! I truly appreciate that so much! So...I fell off my little, red "Sober Wagon" (again) and slacked off BIG time! I've been steadily regaining weight too. In going to use these next few days to "dry out" and regain my footing, so to speak. I will choose May 21st (my…

Hi Melanie @dvmmcw7442, I hope your ankle feels better and improves every day! Best wishes! 🌷 I'm gearing up for a fresh reset on my mother's birthday, May 21st (Wednesday), at which time I will post stats for my new "Day 1" on the stats board and my first weigh-in here. The program I'm joining at the end of this month…
