LOVE THIS!

No you sure don't have to say more. I've done the math as well and 1 bottle (750 not 1.5 liter) of chardonnay (my poison of choice) is 500 calories so the same you stated. More importantly for me I just make stupid food choices and have to work my fat butt off at the gym the next day to keep on track with my maintenance

Feeling like a loser with all the work TinaBaily did but I'll play... I lost the weight of my fat moose cat Butter (should never have named him that he takes fat much too seriously).

I 2nd that.... best choice that I can think of other than just steamed veggies but you have to enjoy yourself while you're there ;-)

Daily wine drinker here as well. I am at goal but truthfully I wouldn't have to exercise so much if I cut the wine out. I love wine and its the only alcohol I like but it really should go.. I'm visiting my nephew next week in Florida who has been through alcohol rehab 3 or 4 times now so you can bet I won't be drinking…

I quit smoking about 5 years ago and I guess it was just "time" and for some reason I really had very little trouble but I did gain a few lbs. Quitting is absolutely the best thing you could have done for yourself and the weight will come off. Hell if you could quit the most addictive habit, lbs will be a (excuse the…

I know its almost a week in but I'd like to do this as well. I drink too much wine and when I do I make very bad food choices as well. So IN

and I agree with both! you should be pushing yourself but not to the point of actual pain. Wishing you all the very best and know you'll be successful! keep it up ;-)

I'm in Maryland too and could be your nana :-) if you want to connect I'm happy to support. Have a great weekend Belair

congratulations to you!!!! best thing you could do for yourself. I quit 5 years ago and had no negative side effects at all. I was ready to quit and I just did it. Didn't gain weight (possibly 1-2 water lbs) and only good things happened including not stinking LOL!

saving for GIF's ;-) so adorable

;-) awesome! so happy for you:flowerforyou:

hoping to get suggestions. my standby is whole chicken, jar of trader joe's salsa and broccolini ....

yup this is the only way and equally ridiculous. I doubt you gained 50 lbs in 2 months so suck it up and eat sensibly to change your lifestyle not 2 months of your life

I used to take it but then quit smoking and lost a few pounds so no longer on them. it doesn't impact your life negatively if anything I felt better that I wasn't getting that rush/flush feeling. I watch my sodium and stay away mostly from deli meats but other than that no problem

Of course you're not eating enough and you said you weren't eating any carbs? yeah you are. your protein drink is fruit (carbs) yogurt (carbs). but not my point really. if you want to do low carb cut out the shake and eat protein. you're trying to mix it all up which is more than fine if you wanted a sensible calorie diet…

You are so adorable ;-) I have read your posts since I joined MFP about a year and a half ago and just adore you! You look amazing and the way you approach life is just wonderful. HUGS and so happy for all you've accomplished for you :heart:

remarkable transition you look beautiful and happy :flowerforyou: :happy:

I'm all in for the white spandex ;-) great list. I don't really have one? it would be nice to just enjoy meals again and not count the calories LOL

I wish you success and hope you enjoy being with MFP. I'm pretty much at goal but on daily to log my food and exercise. Happy to be your friend if you would like to add me for support :flowerforyou:
