Ha! Funny how that wine thing works.

Anyway, good morning, yet ANOTHER night without a binge! That's three in a row, something I haven't done in probably a year or two. I TOTALLY attribute it to suddenly having this forum in the back of my mind. What a great support, seriously.

So, another pound of water weight, excellent! That's the boost I need to get going and really work on the rolls of actual FAT!

It's amazing, too, how instantly better and "lighter" I feel.

Soon I'm gonna take the dog for a nice long walk.

The only thing I binge on when drinking wine is the wine itself. I don't ever feel compelled to eat while drinking. But I can easily consume an entire bottle with no ill effects. That is NOT the best use of my daily calorie allotment.

i'm new here, but i'm starting to feel at home already! i definitely don't feel ike a "featherweight" these days. today is the fourth day of trying to turn things around. i've been eating well and i haven't had any wine or alcohol. wine is a big one for me; i usually drink a bottle a day! c'est la vie, i said, but that's a lot of calories so i've cut it out. it was a lot easier than i thought.

i've gotten a lot of great tips from reading these forums- i look forward to being in this community! thanks, everyone!

Well, after the euphoria of the first three days of being here and being good, I slipped today. here are my various excuses:

1. It's the weekend, and everyone is around and I am off schedule.

2. It's the weekend before Christmas.

3. I'm having a vodka tonic, and I'm loose.

4. I'm HUNGRY!


help me.......

Just popping in to wish you all a Merry Christmas. My Christmas break officially starts to day and in a couple of hours I'm off in my car to spend Christmas with the family - really can't wait. Back on Saturday and praying that I limit the damage between now and then! Have a good one everybody.

In my opinion, it's when I STOP feeling «ridiculously vain» that the pounds creep up on me ... I think you are doing «ridiculously» well, keep up the great work...
