Hello Sunday! Another good exercise week. 4 days aquatics 1 day power walk Today it is raining and the pool is closed so I will do ab work on stability ball and free weights. Love the declutter talk. I am kind of a minimalist anyhow, so if it does not get used or have a purpose in the future I am bound to get rid of it.…

🥶 so cold this morning in Florida. My weather app says "feels like 20°" No matter, have to keep the positive vibe going with my exercise goal. 12 weeks to get back in shape/2 weeks to fall out if shape. This ratio haunts me!. Anyhow we have 1 week left in this short month. Let's bring it!!! Accountability A-1 AF- 19

Way to go @Born2Run1958 . Your killing Feb!

Your Feb accountability looks great. So your rowing tally, is that inside rowing or outside? Which ever it is impressive.

@tmbg1 what super success you have made in the past 12 months. Love your LA calculations. 👏👍

Great goal. You are doing well!

@globalhiker thank you I'm touched with your post. I get all the baggage(pardon the pun) that comes with a long vacation and traveling, relatives and all the pressures. Have the vacation YOU want to remember in Spain. Not the one your family wants. I really believe you will have big success on your trip. I spit out coffee…

Good food for thought here. Choosing a different direction other than the one normally taken when wanting a drink.

@NonnieDoiron I am feeling your pain with your MIL bad eating habits and so forth. Such a non negotiable issue for me when people have outright bad table manners. I met my husbands family first time for a Thanksgiving adinner. Was seated across from his Father and next to his teenage Nephew. Both of them kept their heads…

@Womona I hope your vacation is wonderful. Two of my least drinking vacations both took place in Las Vegas (which is notorious for its drinking reputation) My last vacation in Hawaii was a span of 12 days with moderate drinking on some of the days and AF on some to. You will need to disclose your vacation spot to us now 🤣😅😂

Hi there and welcome. We have a great intro post on page one. It gives helpful tips for those wanting to drink LESS. Of course we are all using the best method for our own personal journeys because everyone has different goals. One thing, ACCOUNTABILITY to yourself is very important. Well wishes for success

Those Valentines dinners I saw advertised this year in our area were not specials at all. One place we were going to go to ONLY offered steak for the entree. I don't eat much beef and I had pretty much had my amount for this month already. Being forced to eat what I don't want for $35.00 a person for that particular event…

I am aghast that your bloodwork came back off. Especially with your weight loss and not drinking for 47 days. Sometimes I wonder how accurate those blood tests are. I agree, aging is for the birds. Seems like we have to work twice as hard to get results. Maybe that is what retirement is for LOL!! Hang in there.

Good morning LESS Alcohol group. @itladyee thank you, and yes I did have that drink Valentines Day, a glass of rose prosecco. I am no longer calculating my none drinking days as X number day streaks. I believe I have proved I am in the" rarely drink" category. I am very comfortable making this claim. As I have always said,…

Take it easy on yourself Surfergirl. Sorry if this place has given you anxiety to improve your drinking situation. If you need to step away from posting it is understandable. In the past some folks could not get in and read posts from other contributors because they had mentioned what they had drank. We are all wired…

Thanks @SurferGirl1982 I was typing fast and yes I did mean 2024 :D

Loved your post about you and tequila having a face off. The best person WON! I knew exactly what I was going to have because I set out to do it and it was not spur of the moment. I had a prosecco. We both had lovely dinners and a jazz musician artist for entertainment. Came home watched our show on the DVR while having a…

Hello everyone. So I have decided that later tonight will be my first alcohol since Oct 6 2025. This is my choice, no one else even knows yet :)

🎉Happy 6 months AF @globalhiker 🎉 It has been quite the journey. Your posts have so much zipity do da in them and they really make me smile for you.

One question - Who gets to decide on the Superbowl half time shows?? That should sum up how I felt about that. Game day was great. Had 2 H00 all night and also took my large container of spring water to drink. Ate good to, which even surprised me LOL. Salad, half a mushroom spinach cheese quesadilla and some unsalted…

THIS NOT THIS

a few words of encouragement for all of us

Hello and welcome. I am going to at big Superbowl gathering at a local sports bar Sunday. This place is so cool, 18 big screen TV'S, lots of Superbowl specials both food and drinks, football pools and tailgate games. My favorite is they do have a mocktail menu if I want to order from it. They are a bit to sweet for me so I…

Yesterday marked a 1/3 of a year or 110 days alcohol free (which I never planned on being for this long) Beyond surprised at myself and what can happen unexpectedly without setting my sights on such a long projection. So what now? I asked myself yesterday. And I thought, oh heck I am a numbers girl let's check this out.…

OMgosh I will only eat sauerkraut with caraway seeds to!!!! I thought I was alone in this delicacy. To be completely honest the recipe calls for: Sauerkraut, med size whole potatoes, kielbasa, caraway seeds and 1 can of beer in the crockpot for our News Years Eve dinners growing up in the mid-West.

Hi sorry you got ill while in Atlantic City. We are now over on the month for February 2025 click here to find us. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10932065/less-alcohol-february-2025-one-day-at-a-time#latest

@chicbuc enjoy Mama Mia today. It sounds fantastic and you are going in costume, even better. If you start to frequent the same place giving them the same AF drink order eventually if it is the same server or bartender they will either say I know how you like it OR have it already waiting for you when sit down. Don't give…

Is there anything more challenging than DAY ONE of our new monthly thread being on a Saturday?(except for maybe it being on a Friday) Saw this quote and for some reason I got a bit emotional. Had to share it with you all.

You got this @SurferGirl1982. Remember this feeling so you can channel back into it if need be. Great job
