Anybody else?What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -

I may have missed something Maggie but looking at your target and score, there are still nights left for having a drink so why aren't you having date nights/socialising? :think:
It's avoiding empty calories that motivates me most (although health and finances are important). I've worked out that I can lose weight on 2 drinking days a week, maintain on 3 and gain on anything beyond that:(. It's about what's a balanced diet and keeping the treats (wine in my case) to that sort of level works for me.
]
Trying to follow very strict diet at present and moving to 800 diet so totally avoiding alcohol and socialising. This isn't sustainable but Michael Mosley in his book gives strong evidence of benefits of a strict short term diet followed by Mediterranean diet. I can cope with this as a short sharp shock to my system although not sustainable for too long. However OH has sort of joined in which makes it easier. Once over these 8 - 12 weeks then I think I need to try what you do and try to stick to 2 days alcohol. Interesting to read about the different impact on weight.
22 AFD and 3SNC0 -
