Congrats Bizi,
For coming up with a plan to go to trivia, but skip the drinking.

I like your plan.

Sorry you fell.

I'm glad you enjoyed the concert

Great job staying AF despite some temptation! How long has it been now?

I'm sorry about your knees. I hope that they are feeling better soon

How was the movie?

11-27-17= 185.6
3-23-18 = 167
5-7-18= 180
5-26-18= 174.7

I have lost and gained weight since 6 months ago,
gaining weight while drinking, losing weight while AF.
I am still down 11 pounds total since november and
down 5 pounds in the last 3 weeks.

The movie was great!!!!!
Very different but good.

It was a love story.


today makes 2 weeks AF.
I am getting ready to go out side my comfort zone and go out of town to meet some new women for socializing and I am supposed to bring something to make soup with for dinner. I am bringing a box/quart of butternut squash soup, and some celery.

I scheduled myself off for memorial day.....
We have been invited to a BBQ gathering. There will be much drinking going on. I will bring my tea/mug and stevia sweetener to hold onto something for a buffer.
I went to lunch with a friend and had a pleasant enough time we said we would do that again. It is easy to have lunch and not drink, still have the social anxiety issues.

10:30am and I am still in my jammies.
Got up at 8am and just finished my third cup of coffee. Weighed 174.6.
I have been around this number for a while. This weight is surly coming off slowly. I don't know why I thought it would just melt away not drinking. I should be happy with a 5 pound weight loss in a few weeks.
This memorial day weekend, I give thanks for all who gave their lives and service for my freedom. I proudly display our flag. I am a veteran during non-conflict time of service. I served in the air force and Air national guard. The military helped pay for my nursing degree. Which means the government helped put me thru school, Which means you helped me. So thank you.
Hubby is watching the Indy 500 like usual. He always watches at least some of the race because he grew up in Indy and attended many many of the races and participated in the craziness in the pit. He says he has many fond memories of good times. I went to one race and was bored to tears. LOL.
I don't know if we will go to brunch today or not because of the race????
We are invited to a cook out tonight and tomorrow.
Staying AF today will be easy today, tomorrow not so easy.
I have 2 loads of laundry to do and some billing before tuesday when the mail resumes.
The womens gathering yesterday was good. It got me out of my comfort zone.
There were 10 of us. We worked together to make a soup, and then participated in a couple of activities which were interactive and quite personal in nature. I tried to explain it to my husband who thought it was weird. Anyway I think we all had a good time and the soup turned out great! I had brought some butternut squash soup as a base then there were an assortment of other veggies: carrots, celery, corn, brocolli, white beans, tomato, garlic, and spices. Smoked sausage was cooked separately as some wanted a vegetarian soup.
I was the only person to have seconds and enjoyed the smoked sausage a lot!The bowls were small and I have a big appetite.
Maybe that is why I am over weight????
Have a great day and weekend.
Never forget those we have lost during war and died for our freedom.
Goddess bless america, and that includes you and me.

Thank you for your service, Bizi

Congratulations on staying AF for 2 weeks!!!
I think a 5lb weight loss in a couple of weeks is healthy and something to be proud of!

I'm happy you stepped outside of your comfort zone and went to the women's gathering. You have been wanting more friends. I'm glad that you had a good time. What did you mean by it getting "personal"?

I hope you have a great time at your BBQ.

Well I know this sounds weird but we broke up into 2 groups of 5.
Then we took turns in the middle of the small group and closed our eyes and the other 4 comforted us physically like running your hand on their shoulder, caressing a hand, tugging on an ear ring. just some silly stuff too. Some one did reike I think just said silent prayers of good intention etc.
It was weird at first but then I felt good about giving and receiving comfort.

Glad you enjoyed it. I've lived in Indiana all my life. And I've never been
to the Indy 500. One of my sister's and her family go now about every year.

My husband bought the extra tickets they had 2 different years and took my son Devin and Dan when they were a certain age I don't remember what age.
They had always wanted to go. They never really wanted to go back. So it
was fine to go once. Derrick has never been interested, so when his dad had
the opportunity to buy the extra tickets one year, he chose to tell him no.
So he didn't buy them.

THey did something else, I think they went to a movie or two instead. Lots
cheaper and more to boths liking.

Had a grilled biscuit for brunch today. Had an eggwhite garden omelet which was very good. 2 orange slices.

At the cook out for dinner I Had a cheese burger with out the bun but then snacked on chips like crazy. Here I am the heaviest person in the room scarfing down potato chips. and a greens salad. Had a cup of ice cream, it was delicious I could have eaten the whole container but resisted.
I drank diet root beers and passed on the wine which I am not a wine drinker so that was easy.


I really snacked a lot this evening.....
Ate A lot more dried mangos than I should have and they are very high glycemic and a no no on a low carb diet. I ate a slice of havarti cheese which was delicious!



So tomorrow is a new day.
I am still alcohol free so that is good. My belly will bloat as all of the mangos get reconstituted in my stomach and I will look even more pregnant than I look right now!
Have been on this computer a lot today.
How am I to survive another cookout where there will be lots of interesting beers to drink? and not stuff myself with food?
