haha.. The scale wont stay below 260...259..258.6...261..260.0...260.6..260.0...262... Just keep going... watching my intake and staying active while I look forward to the day I am complaining about how the scale won't stay below 250...my goal is to be there by sometime this summer.

Losing weight in all the wrong places my lower arms my calves and my face show it..but my waist hips and thighs cling to the fat. FINALLY lost 2 inches around my hips..my waist fluctuates but on average I see a downwards trend there too. I see more muscle definition and my work jeans are getting loose. Yay!

16 out of 25 days wine free. I have a shot of whiskey every night before dinner and have cut down from a full bottle of wine to half a bottle when I do indulge. Doing it for better sleep quality, health, and weight loss. I fall asleep faster after wine but do not stay asleep, waking up often and having about an hour of…

That is a tough one to answer. Weight lifting and sit-ups does not burn that many calories and you would have to figure out how much time was actually spent in movement. Sit ups are not even listed as exercise on here. 2 days of a few hours of active work will not be that much of a change in your weekly totals if you do no…

11 out of 17 days wine free. I drink one glass once in a while, not two or three every night. I usually have a shot of whiskey after work, before dinner.

Another day wine free. 2 more sleeps 'til Monday. I decided that the rest of the wine will be enjoyed then. Still having busy dreams but not as "dramatic".

Don't stop trying things. What works for some does not work for others. At first intermittent fasting worked...then it didn't, then a food scale worked, Then I got lazy. Over the years I have lost then gained and after just coasting on maintenance for a while, I recommitted and started losing weight again. This time I am…

Another day wine free...The rest of my bottle calls me from the fridge but I am waiting. The weight loss and stronger willpower due to not being tipsy when hubby starts eating his nightly sweets is more rewarding than the buzz.. 10 lbs down today. 1shot of whisky to ease post work aches. My Job involves a little heavy…

I found Ashwaghanda and Evening primrose supplements help with the hot flashes and mood swings. I also take melatonin occasionally when I get sleepless. I gained 20 lbs in the last two years but am now down 7 lbs slowly just being consistent and having more on calorie target days than above target.

Day 7 0ut of 28 with no wine this month. I had wine on my Friday. Did not finish the bottle. Drinking lime Bubly with a splash of juice.

I did not give up. After months not being able to run my weekly 5k due to knee injury I finally was able to walk it today and it feels great. I miss running but was stoked to hit the track again. My elliptical died, the pool is shut down for construction, I cannot afford the gym, my knee does not like a lot of stairs or…

Day 2 out of 28 days this month no wine. I did have one measure of fireball to relax after work tonight. Usually I would have that and a small bottle of wine to myself in a night so that is a success to me. I had a rage dream night before last and a dream of hiding in old houses and then behind trees in a beautiful park…

I was never that much of a drinker since my younger years of silliness...I was on a great trajectory spring of 2020 having lost 70 lbs..Enter the pandemic. I soon lost my job and spent a lot of time in the park day drinking with others out of loneliness and boredom but all was not lost, I was working out a lot and still…
