I was going to say Braum's vanilla ice cream with peanut butter m&m mini's with chocolate syrup but now I want tacos and a crunchwrap supreme.

Hello! I'm not going to make a goal. I want to track my exercise dedicated miles for this month and see where I'm at! I'm walking now but may jog in the future. Week 1: 9.8 miles Week 2: Week 3: Week4:

I did another fitnessblender 30 minute workout, my abs are already sore but in a good way! Planning on a 2 mile walk after dinner as well.

Magic Spoon cocoa cereal with 2% milk and coffee with french vanilla creamer.

I got to pet the new therapy puppy in training at work as I was leaving! Perfect ending to a great work day and now have the next five days off!

I did a short body weight total body strength training workout found on Fitnessblender. It was my first strength training workout in a while, I'm trying to get back into it.

Ear plugs in preparation for a concert I'm going to next week. (feeling old now)

Signing up for a turnpike pass since the prices for plate pay are now almost double :neutral: eta: now I'm bringing in my plants because a big storm is coming, again.

Well I haven't kept up logging but I'm pretty sure I'm at more AF days or maybe even. I had my yearly check up with lab work and unfortunately the lab work wasn't perfect. It just goes to show how much I really do need to cut back on alcohol and increase my exercise. DH and I have a beach vacation in 2 months so that'll be…

Today was much better than yesterday. I was busy at work and kept up well. Tomorrow will be even more busy as we'll be down 3 people. I had a few drinks with DH while we all played a family game. I'm getting excited for the weekend! 4/1- 4 beers 4/2- NA 4/3- NA 4/4- 4 drinks 4/5- NA 4/6- 3 rum drinks

I'm just checking in to say how terrible I have felt all day after my 4 drinks last night. I slept terrible, had a headache since 9 pm last night, and it made parts of work simply miserable. So definitely AF tonight for me.

Today was good. Our supervisor is off for bereavement leave starting at 10 am today so I had a little more stress at work than usual picking up the slack. But when I got home DH and I played some DnD with our 13 year old then had dinner. We both had some drinks and enjoyed the evening. Supervisor is off tomorrow and I have…

Today was a good day. I had a lot of energy at work, maybe too much, lol. Went on a walk with DH after work and ate pretty healthy. I had a NA beer while playing a game with the family. 4/1- 4 beers 4/2- AF 4/3- AF

I am going to use this thread to keep track of my drinking, though I may not check in every day. I'm going to try to be honest even though I get embarrassed about my consumption sometimes. It's almost dinner time and no alcohol for today! I should be on my game at work tomorrow. April 1 - 4 beers April 2 - AF

Hello everyone! I have been on MFP for years and was a part of this thread quite a while ago. I have not been doing well with either less alcohol nor keeping in shape. I have found that drinking too much has a direct correlation to whether I work out routinely or not. I don't sleep well, don't perform great at work, and am…

I like to use FitnessBlender for my workouts. I just use the free videos.

Looks like you figured it out! That's why I turned off notifications for that part because I'll lose and gain the same three pounds for weeks and it annoyed me to receive several "Congratulations!" for pounds I re-gained and just re-lost, lol.

@whitpauly , I think if I would have had more rum in the house, I probably would have had more. But now it's all gone and I don't plan on stopping by the liquor store anytime soon! Thank you all for you kind words.

Last night I gave in to temptation. It was actually the first night I even craved alcohol since going AF on August 1st. I had to go dress shopping because we're going to see Hamilton on Thursday night and I've gained so much weight that I don't have any dress clothes that fit right now. I also didn't want to spend a lot of…

I only wash my hair 2-3 times a week. During workouts I either put it in a bun for low impact stuff or put it in a low pony tail and braid it for running. if I sweat a lot and it gets wet, I'll maybe get a little water on the roots in the shower and then blow dry just the roots. I use dry shampoo on the third day usually…

Today is day three AF and my first weekend. According to my fitbit, I’ve gotten a lot better deep sleep. My heartburn is starting to go away too! I’ve not been in a great mood but that could easily be related to something else and hopefully ease up in the next two days. Anyway, just checking in and reading previous posts.…

You HAVE to do this. What if someone's naked and you missed it because you didn't look :D

Thank you @donimfp for your reply and your kind words! Wish you the best getting back to it!

Hello everyone! I'm joining the Sober Squad! I've been out of control alcohol-wise for a while now and it's really getting me down. I'm starting a new job in a month that is going to take a lot more concentration, comprehension and ability than my current job (that I've been at for almost 7 years). I won't just be able to…

I shower after working out, which is usually in the mornings anyway. I shower in the mornings before work always because I sweat at night. So I usually get away with just showering once a day. I don't mind gym showers, I did it for years so I had a good routine down but I don't currently belong to a gym (I work out at home…

Lil Alfredo :D

Just have fun! There are tooonnnnsss of healthy options too, it's not just all fried calorie laden things (of course there's that too, lol). They put the buffets up in between meals, so it's not like you'll walk by any time and be able to grab anything you want (they often keep fruit out though, and be warned there WILL be…

I totally get the changing goals! I have a really hard time even setting goals because I never hit them and feel like I'm just setting myself up for failure. My only goal for the month of June is to DRINK LESS than last month, which should be easily do-able since I drank almost every day last month, lol.

I passed my first day AF, lol! We went to dinner and DH had a margarita and I just had iced tea. I ate too much so still had heartburn and woke up full but I worked out and feel a lot better with no hangover! I plan on no alcohol tonight, but tomorrow I might be going to a baseball game with DH so will most likely have a…

I'm in for June! I did well a few months back moderating but then I slipped right back in to the cycle. I only had a couple of AF days in May, definitely not enough. I haven't been working out and I've just been feeling blah, not enjoying anything. We have a family vacation coming up in July that I want to get back in…
