May was a bit of a washout but i've had some medical advice and its not good.
I need to lose 50 lbs so that I can have a vasectomy.
So I thought I'd double it.
I cant lose weight and drink. It's an impossibility.
Tonights my night off so i'm partaking, but i've been good for the past 12 days, losing 14lbs in the process.
My targets to lose 100 lbs, and also drink sociably (at the weekends only and only when i'm not working which'll average one in 5 weekends).

:wave: and good luck!

I forgot to say I stepped on the scales today and I have lost 2 pounds already this month. I was only supposed to weigh myself once a week really but I get impatient.

I am going to lose that 7 pounds this month! I am sure of it.:j

Morning
Happy to report day 3 went easily all clear from any bells.
Some interesting thought provoking posts.
Jo - you remain an inspiration and sending positive, happy thoughts to you.

Mollypolly, thank you for introducing me to that song, lyrics are brilliant and sums up a lot about how I feel at the moment. Going to treat myself to it via itunes.

Cloudy here, but not letting that dampen my spirits. A day off and loads to do.

Morning all

I just realised today - as was putting out the rubbish in my baffies (slippers) how life is a lot less um ? turbulent without alcohol somehow? (and yeah still NOT glamourous!!)

My heads not full of the paranoid bllx I use to carry about with me everyday.

SIL was diagnosed with cancer last night, its not sounding v good - sorry to share - OH is beside himself - its all happenning a bit too quickly 45 mother of 3. What can anyone say - not very much.

Normally that news would gget to me half way down a bottle (the call was late) or would send me straight to a bottle - but I was able to hlep and talk to him rather than selfishly go off and think omg thats terrible how do I feel about it.

Hugs to you all

Quarter way through the day already

MP ta for the spring watch girl post - I dont feel sparkly yet, I hope it arrives next week as that will be almost week 5.

Waves to you all.
