Alcohol free September! Can't do August.....summer's too hard. Sorry! But I'm doing thirty days in September. My fiance and I take a clean month every fall. Had my sis over for dinner last night. Ouch. Now at 1466 alcohol calories for the week. Have a good weekend!

I had another dry night last night! That's two! Probably not tonight though, going to meet my sister for a drink at 5pm tonight. She had one hell of a weekend, and I have my wedding dress so we'll be chatting away! It'll be fun and silly and worth it! Just gotta bench the beer.

That's great! It's so difficult to be tempted. Much easier when it's not in the house, just like chocolate and cookies and chips and ice cream and and and..... ; )

1000 for the week! Ahhh! Brave! You can do it! I know...summer is the worst (& best!). It's hard. I just bought my wedding dress yesterday and it fits pretty perfectly except for a little bit of pooch belly. Beer! It's all your fault, beer! Had drinks last night. 688 cal worth. Beer. 1,312 to go. And I think beer's out for…

We can do it!

Take a look at my diary! It was a challenge! My fella was trying to put out a spread like his Mom does....so he went crazy. Pork, beef and chicken? And insistent on having a bit of each...with potato salad (with bacon) and cabbage salad (with a buttload of feta and walnuts). Dinner was nuts and I hardly had a tonne on my…

Hey! I'm an elementary teacher (primary/junior) with special education. To make a living? I'm serving in a restaurant. I can't seem to get in with the board here in Toronto. I've stopped trying for the last two years. It's a shame. Need to start thinking outside of the box! Anyway ideas? Any advise? Networking help? Hahah…

Hey good idea! I just made "Snacks" my alcohol section, but then was moving snacks around to lunch, etc. I'm going to do what you did! My fella brought home a bottle of wine on Thursday and I actually managed to have half of the bottle and then switch to water! Progress! We have my Stepdaughter this weekend so it'll be…

Just finished my last of week 3! I'm ready to move on! That's for sure! Still nervous about week 4 though! I think I'm going to do the 6 week abs one after. Who has completed it? Worthwhile?

Hey! I'm a relatively new Stepmom, though I guess not technically yet. I've been in that role for over three years. My fiance and I are getting married in November, so it'll but more official then, I guess? Ha. Anyway....I was just trying to create a group for Stepparents. I really need a community around this. I don't…

I haven't met very many up here in ol' Canada. Though there are lots around in September with TIFF here in Toronto every year. I've working in the restaurant industry for years, so we've had a few in. Eugene Levy, Mary Louise Parker. I served Rachel McAdams in 2006. She came in to the restaurant where I was working because…

Hey! I'm new here! I was browsing alcohol related forums/groups and came across some that were about cutting back for weight loss. Some AA inspired, but I need one smack in the middle, I think. Ha. I'm 32, live in Toronto, Canada. I drink quite a bit, but it's a huge issue of reflection in my life. It's under the…

So....how's dry July everyone?

Bahaha

Yeah, I'm alternating running and 30. One week I do 30 m/w/f and run t/th, then I flip it for the following week. I'm not sure what you should do in terms of starting it all again. I remember doing that a couple of years ago with 30 Day Shred. I got bored really quickly and moved onto something new - just my personality. I…

I'm with you! I'm on week 3. Day 2 was yesterday. Today's a running day, then day 3 tomorrow! Doing each week 6 times 3/week. I'm seeing changes! Good luck!

I was raised in a rock n' roll, concert-going, tune-blasting family. My parents took me to shows, had massive record and then c.d. collections, so I didn't want for much. Lots of hilarious pros/cons with such an upbringing. Ha. The first album I recall purchasing on my own, with my own earned, baby-sitting money was…

Congratulations! This is inspiring. Can relate to a lot of what you're saying. Thanks.

Hey! I'm relatively new as well! I'm getting married in Costa Rica in November and would like to feel and look great. Also gearing up to quit smoking. I really enjoy eating clean and how I feel, but I could never give up all treats. I like logging for accountability and I feel proud the more I log veggies or when I log…

I'm just over 5'4", 124 lbs. 34-29-38. Damn beer - totally goes to my belly!
