Hi guys,

AF last night. Had to talk myself out of it a few times but feel so happy that I did. I went over the night before (nothing extreme for me, no blackout) and felt slow yesterday. I didn't want to feel that way today. I woke up a few times during the night as I always do and instead of feeling pissed at myself and dreading how it would feel to get up at 6, thought, "Hmmm, I should be AF more often!"

Kat, sorry if I am talking too much food. You are taking on a lot at once. I have lost 15, and have 15 more to go. What has worked for me is more exercise, and smaller portions. I get my fruits and veggies in but don't deny myself some treats. I find that when I do it never lasts.

That's it for now.

Good afternoon modsters, Ducky no problem with the food talk, I may try that Salmon recipe. Thanks for the diet advise as well. I know what to do as well, I just seem to sabatoge myself. The worst is when I do over drink, I find myself munching and snacking. Awhile back when I was drinking pretty heavy, I would actually wake up in the morning to dishes in the sink or food dropped on the floor in front of the frig. I know I'm doing alot at once but I know this has to be a whole life revamp so, as has been said many times before ODAT.

Kat, I hear you on overeating when I drink. I probably should not tell you this but the other night I could not stop eating salt and vinegar chips. I threw them in the trash. But since they were on the top, every time I passed by I swiped a few. How gross is that? I forgot my old trick of throwing something disgusting on top of them!

Mary, just saw your post from last night a moment ago. I am so sorry you are going through all of this. I don't know how you can work like you do and care for everyone else. Please try to give yourself a break the next possible chance. I wish I could send you a nice homemade dinner and a long bath, followed by a massage and two days of sleep.

Hubbie is late so I am making dinner and having an AF beer. I really want a tini but maybe later. I don't do the drink/drive thing anymore. I am ashamed that when I was young I did. Thank god I was lucky.

Hi Modsters!

Mary, I'm so sorry you are having a hard time. I hope the best for your sister.

Today was an ok day at work for a change. I actually had a little work to do. I'm very happy to be working from home tomorrow. I won't have to deal with gross, disgusting, annoying co-worker and I won't have to drive in the snow. We are supposed to get several inches tomorrow.

Today is day 3 AF for me. Ducky, I can imagine doing that with the chips if I threw out something I really wanted especially after I'd been drinking.

Boop - Hope Florida is treating you well. I love SeaWorld!

Kat - I'm pretty much doing a ton of things at once as well. Maybe that's why I'm not succeeding on the losing weight part. Let's see so far this year I've stopped smoking, started exercising(not as much as I should be yet though), cut back big time with booze, studying for certifications for my job, looking for a new job, and trying to lose weight, there are some others too, but talk about taking on a lot at once. Total life overhaul here, plus keeping busy keeps drinking off my mind.

Cowgal, yep 2 beers is definitely better than overdoing it!

Thanks so much ladies for your support. I am on the computer tonight to get some project deadlines done, so I gotta run. Things not tons better today but my perspective on handling it is. I only hope I can coordinate the doctor telling her the horrible news she will need chemo and of course the cancer is out there everywhere in her body. I wish she could just be normal for . . . . just a few.

You are all the BEST when it comes to helping getting through the crossroads of HELL. Thanks!

Love ya,
Mary
