Grr. My gym buddy is on a roll, I have to give her credit, but on the other hand her latest system involves buying an app that will give her advice on how to lose weight. Like, she went on for several minutes this morning about the food scale and how great it was in helping with portion control. Did I tell her to get a food scale and measure every day or not? I did. Last year, and 6 months ago, and some time in the fall. Ack.
Did ok yesterday but I am over-snacking when I get home from the dance so have to plan better for that.
Refining the New Year's resolution: eat healthy foods, aiming at 1200 calories a day. Exercise: 2 times a week each, dancing and weight lifting. More water daily. Got out of the habit of hydrating regularly and it does take a toll.
Also been having half a beer at night for the past week. Very obvious to me that this makes a difference and causes bloating and water retention in the morning. Need to cut this out also.
Happy Monday all! Hang in there.

Unfortunately, the most aggravating person who doesn’t follow my advice is me. SO aggravating! I maintain a few good habits but can’t seem to add another. Not surprised your friend responded to the gadget; technology is a trigger for a lot of people.

alcohol is brutal for weight loss

You can tell your friend what to do until you are blue in the face but she won't hear until she's ready. Big difference between knowing and doing. Your goals are good ones! Yeah, alcohol is a real stinker where weight loss is concerned. 😞

Maybe she wasn’t ready for a scale ten or advice. Meet each other where you are currently.

Good job on setting goals. Also, you're a good friend for not bringing up the fact that you have previously suggested what your friend got from another source. 😊

I did the same as your friend. No advice but I have been on FS for years off for a while but I wanted to do the Mayo Diet and paid $65 to download the app. At least it offers different things than FS but I probably didn’t need it except to prove to my Mayo drs that I am doing my best. I had to stop drinking because it made my face red and bags under my eyes. I was on a sugar diet at the time to but I noticed no bags this morning after no alcohol for a month. Well one glass of wine for Christmas. Sorry I’m rambling. ❤️
