AF - 15 A - 5 Really overdid the calories yesterday celebrating my mom with my brothers. It was a fun get together, and I didn’t drink a drop! Fortunately, God heard my prayers, and I managed to stay ahead of the rain while driving to and from. Overall, a great day yesterday. Now, to agonize about my weigh-in tomorrow…

AF - 14 A - 5 Changed my mind and chose a A day. 1 glass of wine. Won’t be able to drink tomorrow because I will have to drive the 2 hrs home in the rain after celebrating mom’s birthday. @SparkSpringtime69 I just did the shot yesterday around 1pm. It’s now 9pm, and I’m feel like it’s starting to kick in a little. I didn’t…

@Michieb125 you could be right. There’s a lot going on in my world. I had been on iron for years though. After my son’s cancer treatment 10 years ago, I was diagnosed anemic and almost made to go to the hospital because my doctor was scared I wouldn’t recover with just continuing my iron supplement more regularly. ( I had…

I slept real good last night, but I’m still tired. I was so tired yesterday, I didn’t go for my walk. I won’t make it into the 180s doing that!🙁 I forgot to give myself my b12 injection on Saturday, so I’m wondering if that’s the issue. Will administer it after I finish my lunch. Hopefully, in a day or two, I’ll have…

AF - 13 A - 4 No A tonight. Still tired.

AF - 12 A - 4 Decided to have some wine tonight. Now, I’m tired. Heading to bed soon.

@chicbuc I agree with everyone else. Just hang tight! July is only half way through… still plenty of time work towards better numbers. But, even if the number doesn’t get better, that’s ok too! You’re here and being accountable for your actions, and that is half the battle. AF - 12 A - 3 Weighed in this morning to no…

Had friends and family here to celebrate MIL’s belated birthday since she was in the hospital on her birthday. It was great! I did say I would not open my wine unless my BFF decided to drink, and she decided to drink on Saturday. I joined her, but we started around 3pm and stopped about 9pm. I drank 1 bottle of wine minus…

@chicbuc we must be… let’s get together and have a drink sometime!😉🤣🤣 @itladyee, MIL is home and is SLOWLY improving. I think she’s trying to get sympathy from time to time, but she eventually ends up revealing her true colors. Hubby did his 17th out of 25 treatments today. Then, he’ll have to have a procedure to implant…

@chicbuc, I get it! I said it last month and I’ll say it again… I drink because others are drinking, I drink because I’m stressed, I drink because I’m angry, I drink because I’m sad, I drink to relax, and I drink to celebrate. If I had a body that could tolerate it and all the money in the world, I’d probably stay drunk…

Ya’ll!! I love my husband, but he is tempting me like crazy right now on this high stress period of my life! He bought another bottle of wine yesterday. I didn’t even see it until this morning. 🙄 I don’t get what part of “I’m not trying to drink as much” he doesn’t understand. 🙁 Ok… goal for this bottle of wine… save it…

Thanks @Womona and @chicbuc! That’s why I want to lose weight, so I can wear it again. I miss wearing my wedding ring. No drinking tonight. Probably going to bed early. AF - 7 A - 2

@chicbuc I avoided it, and I had a fantastic weigh-in: 195.2 last Monday and 191.4 today! I am so happy! I was able to put my wedding ring on, but I know my finger is not thin enough to wear it all the time. So, I’m holding off for now. AF - 6 A - 2

I know the feeling! Sometimes the urge hits HARD! If I weren’t weighing in the morning, I’d be tempted to go get a bottle right now. AF - 5 A - 2

AF - 4 A - 2 Safe to say no A tonight. None in the house and no calories left.

AF - 3 A - 2 Didn’t walk the extra lap today to make up for the extra wine/calories yesterday. No drinking today. I think I’m under my calorie goal for the day, but my Fitbit died during my walk. So, I’m not 100% sure. If I am over, it’s only about 100 calories. I think it’s supposed to rain starting tomorrow for most of…

AF - 2 A - 2 Drank the last 3 glasses in that bottle of wine yesterday. Shouldn’t have done that. Ended up snacking, and screwed up my calories for the day. I even walked an extra lap (laps are about 1-1/2 mile). I guess I’ll be walking 2 extra laps today.

AF - 2 A - 1 Had 1 glass of wine tonight, and I still have extra calories for the day after walking a couple laps today. I need to head to bed. Big day tomorrow. Good night all, and Happy 4th of July!

AF - 2 A - 0 Walked again today. Ate slightly over my calories, but not too bad only about 100 calories. I’ll walk an extra lap tomorrow to make up for it. Made a promise to myself not to drink this month. Sent my dear, sweet, loving husband to the store; and he brought home a bottle of wine for me. 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ It was not on…

@Womona honestly, I probably should get it resized. Hubby has recommended it too. But, I really do need to lose the weight. Wearing my wedding ring again without resizing is more of a reward at this point. I have an anniversary ring hubby gave me at 10 years that I wear now, but my wedding ring (engagement ring with a…

AF - 1 A - 0 I don’t think I can go all month without drinking at least 1 glass of wine. But, I’m going to try! I think the only thing that may stop me is calorie count. I am going to be very hard on myself this month for weight loss. I’m getting frustrated that I can’t seem to break out of the 190s and stay out of them. I…

@MissMay I’m very leery of kratom products. I’ve had too many friends who have had serious adverse reactions to kratom. Granted, they were using just kratom and this appears to be a blend. I don’t know much about kava at all. So, I couldn’t say. But, I probably wouldn’t try this as a personal choice.

Welcome back @Womona. I’d probably drink on the boat too, so I can’t blame you there! I did the same thing for June. I lost weight in the first half and put it back on in the second half. I can make a ton of excuses, but really I know what I need to do and I just need to do it! Here’s to a better July! 🥛(they really need a…

AF = 24 A = 6 Finished June strong on the drinking front. I think I only had one night where I drank 2 glasses of wine. The other 5 A days were only 1 glass. I wish I could do this well on the weight loss/exercise front.😕

I’m in for July.
