I don't usually hop on threads but it looks like the poster above sort of shut you down with that big graphic on a couple of different threads (or maybe you're friends and it's an ongoing joke or something). Anyway, that would discourage me so I wanted to give you my two cents. OMAD is pretty advanced fasting. I'm glad…

Absolutely beautiful! Hope the party was as amazing as the cake!

Thanks for all the great suggestions! I'm in FL too, trying to convince myself that the heat and humidity will go down one of these days.

I had 2 glasses of wine last night. Not too upset with myself except that I was sloppy and didn't measure, so it may have been more like 3 glasses when you look at the total ounces. I need smaller glasses and to keep my scale out!

Yea! So glad to see you guys kept the thread alive :) TBH, I only went ONE day in all of November with no alcohol, and there were unfortunate circumstances around the end of the month that were tough, but overall, it really helped me make give more consideration to when & If & what I wanted to drink. So Dec 1-4, 2 glasses…

Absolutely blew it over the holidays. Hoping for a clean start today! Sure, it's nearly the end of the month, but any day can be a fresh start, right?

Yesterday was crazy busy from 5 am til almost 10 pm, but I chose to spend my last hour awake enjoying 2 small glasses of good wine while watching a relaxing BBC documentary. One of my wee weasels fell asleep in my arms, another on the couch next to us. Big win for me because I chose the quality of the wine, the measured,…

It finally happened - I fell asleep with a glass of wine in my hand. Red wine. Fortunately, the glass didn't break but the wine made a helluva mess. Clearly, I'm exhausted at night and don't need any more help relaxing! (Do I get any points for not actually drinking the wine? ;) )

I was just going to say something like this! I was at a friend's house last night and her glasses were so tiny that we split a bottle of wine and it took 6+ of her tiny glasses. For those of us who drink ritually, a smaller glass could really make a difference.

Wine the past few nights - in part while out to dinner celebrating my daughter's birthday. Overdue for a night off, especially since I have a *surprise* 5K practice with her this afternoon ("that's today???") and the kids have practice until 9 pm. Good night to get to bed early.

Tried using the "Leaf" app to log my drinks but ended up deleting it because it's in metric units, which was ok, but not particularly convenient, and because there's no edit function, so when I accidentally logged on the wrong day, I couldn't remove the drinks. It just kept adding and adding imaginary drinks! Not cool,…

Yea! Talked myself into a cup of tea instead of wine last night. Would have slept well if my doggo wasn't so excited by the full moon lol

Didn't get off to the best start yesterday. I was just exhausted from Halloween and was too groggy to make good choices. I'm allowing myself 2 glasses of wine daily, but I poured about twice that last night. I fell asleep before I finished the last glass though, so clearly I should have just gone to sleep! I need to…

I'm in! I have "mom wine" almost every night. I do keep track of it (measuring & logging), but it's just such an annoying habit. Usually I end up sitting down and watching tv instead of all the useful, productive things I should be doing at the end of the day. I think it's a lame attempt on my part to "adult" for a little…

I find that skorts with compression-type shorts work better than classic running shorts without compromising coverage, and yes, bodyglide helps too. Congrats on "getting off the couch" (to 5K)! Don't let this setback derail you - it happens to everyone sometimes :)

I didn't start running until my late 30s, and I've only run one 5K. I was 4 mos pregnant with my middle kiddo at the time and my only goals were to finish and not barf - Success! Since then I run when I can for the cardio and stress relief. I'm too much of an introvert to race, but I'm happy to cheer other runners on. :)…

I'm usually pretty laid back but this is really frustrating. After months of watching every calorie in or out, my brain is not taking "let it go" very well lol Hope it's fixed soon! (The app sync, not my brain

I know just what you mean - even my DH bailed on me (on MPF, not in real life :wink: ) I'm 43 with 3 kiddos 12 & under. I log every calorie religiously, but I spend far too much in the car rider line and not enough moving my butt, so I've been stuck at a plateau. Feel free to add me, too!

Most babies go through growth spurts, especially on the "3s" and "6s", so your little one might be ramping up for the 6-month growth spurt. Your recent hunger might be due to the increased milk supply and may pass in a few weeks, so by all means, eat to your hunger level. Besides, you'll burn a gazillion calories once that…

Congratulations to you both! Enjoy your "baby moon" (the first month of being a mom)! I know you have baby weight to lose, but trust me, it WILL fall off if you make healthy eating choices (not processed junk food) and nurse your babies on demand. You can start toning and all that after the first 6 weeks, but right now,…

Um, WOW, I know everyone else is offering info on carbs & proteins & changes you can make, but I have to tell you this looks insanely healthy to me! Seriously, how many of us eat a balanced diet of whole grains, lean proteins, fruits, veg & nuts every day? I don't! You're eating well, just not enough. I agree that you're…
