I would have liked to walk more, but we had a huge storm and of course Misty doesn't like going out when it rains that hard.
 
Also, I might take up Cate's suggestion and cut down on bread, rice, and pasta....I don't know about alcohol though lol.

Today was Labor Day in the US so I only had to work for a little while. I kind of flubbed some and had some bread and pasta, but I wanted to just eat that TV Dinner first so I wouldn't have it. I went to the store to look for bread substitutes but couldn't really find any.

My weight went up again, I'm trying this week to get it down and try to not go crazy on the weekends. I know I keep saying this but I hope to get a handle on it this week. I figure if I cheat I'll at least do less of it, at least until my birthday.
 
Matt, my weight is not coming down, even with being really strict & I am going to go without any alcohol for one week from Sunday to the following Saturday. Emilyrose is going to join me. I know you have only just started drinking again after so long without, while you lost all of your weight, so it wouldn't be a hardship for you. With me it's 45 years of habit to share a bottle of wine with my husband most nights, so is harder to do without. Do you want to join us?
What date is your birthday?

Is the week of the 9th-15th? Sure. It's a little harder than you think, I mainly drink when I go out to meetups, etc b/c I have a bit of social anxiety, but it can be done! My birthday is October 6th.
 
Yep.Sunday the 9th to Sat the 15th, inclusive. I have some social anxiety too. Meetups would scare the living daylights out of me!

My weights going down nicely which is good. I had to skip my usual breakfast b/c I was running late for work. Also I met after work for coffee and I broke down and had a cookie (as well as the cappuccino and the tea).

I pretty sure I can do that. I have 2 meetups that week, but they are during the week and I think I can stick to water .
 
Don't worry if you don't feel like it at the time. I'm glad your weight is coming back down, Matt :)

I did okay today, though I could have done without the soda and the sundae. After today it'll be no alcohol for a week. Also I'm a bit worried, bc there's a possibility of a hurricane coming nearby.
 
I'm on day 3 of no alcohol (I started early) & hopeful I will see a loss this week.
Keep safe, Matt!
