Notes:
Sober weekend my friends. Felt very different from what I am used to. The days seemed longer and it took effort to find something to do. Usually I'd start drinking once I got home on Friday and wouldn't stop until Sunday evening. This weekend I visited my Mom, went to the gym, watched movies, went for a walk, watched the GSP fight at a bar, went to a friends for dinner, fixed my toilet, went out for coffee and read, hit on a chick sober (so embarrassing), saw my friends kid, etc. One of the biggest upsides to this is I saved a lot of money. I mean, I only spent $60 this weekend for everything (food, toilet, coffee). Last weekend I spent $300+ on just going out. I really hope I can use this as an eye opener. It's ok to drink, but it is important to choose your battles wisely. It's not worth it being hungover every weekend.

Good job on keeping this thread updated for this year. How do you feel about your progress?

Good job on keeping this thread updated for this year. How do you feel about your progress?

While I am not where I want to be, I believe that I am headed in the right direction.

The biggest lessons I learned for myself this year:
1. I am Gluten Intolerant
2. I need to eat way less calories than I thought to lose fat. I'm talking ~13,000 a week

Major Struggles this year:
1. Sciatica/Bulged Disc - This really affected my morale and my consistency in the gym
2. Alcohol - This is just a struggle that I have. It was all fun and games before but I am definitely finding that I just can't handle it at times and hangovers are getting worse and worsse. Really want to get this check, but it's a little scary to be honest.

Benefits this year:
1. I lost 10-15 lbs and am noticeably leaner
2. Friends, Family, and Coworkers have given me compliments.



But through trial and error I am very confident that this will be my year.

Hey bro - just skimmed through your log and I'm in a very similar place as when you started. I'm 210 lbs (ignore stats on the left, they are from 4 years ago before I let myself go) and really want to drop down to 185 lbs. I also have a bit of a drinking problem. I typically have like 12 beers Friday Night and then maybe 8 more on Sunday, then sober the rest of the week. I'm curious how much you have been drinking during your weightloss journey.

Thanks, and great progress.

Hey man. I drink a lot. Typically I'd drink Thursday thru Sunday (Heaviest on Saturday). Really it all comes down to calories bro. I kept a buffer by calorie cycling. I'd save like 3000+ calories for Saturday as I knew that I would be drinking. What really matters is your weekly deficit. I might add that when I stick to straight whiskey the bloat is not as bad as drinking beer.

But to be honest, I abuse alcohol. I would be much better off if I kept from Heavy drinking. Not only in my fitness goals, but also my health goals. Good luck and be smart. there is nothing wrong with drinking, you just have to know your limits. GL
