I’m gonna try but I love beer and I tend to drink the crazy high calorie stuff. I might have to do it again in a month or 2 lol

Good display of discipline during such shitty times. Be proud of your self

Hawt.

A couple people on here may know I love beer and that I recently am doing a 30 day no alcohol challenge along with food diet, I just want to quickly tell my story in case anyone else wants help...

So since I’ve been doing this 30 day no drinking alcohol and diet thing I’ve been doing (day 20 by the way) the biggest difference other than the weight loss which is now 19 pounds is the change in my heart rate. Assuming Fitbit is somewhat accurate, my resting heart rate has went from the upper 60s to around 70, down to a new low of 56 today and I don’t have as many spikes in heart rate in just doing simple activity. Anyone who knows me knows I’m not a health freak by any stretch but it was time to do this 30 day thing and hopefully when I do decide to start occasionally drinking again, it will have helped me learn moderation. Anyone who’s looking to lose a little weight and just be overall healthier, I encourage you to try the 30 day no drinking and better eating plan! If you have any questions I’ll be happy to try to help! #NewMe #HealthierMe #2020sBeenWeirdButNotSoBadForMe!

 

 

Thanks for sharing. Been a crazy year and drinking def catching up to me, so need to pull back myself. Just imagine there are going to be lot of people running into all kinds of issues coming out of a tough year...

 I don't think there is any particular time since covid. No HH time constraints at home.

I try to wait until at least 2 tho. Discipline.

I try so hard to wait myself lol

RIC 110F in under 10 days?

I don’t know what the hell im looking at, but it doesn’t sound as cool as when these are posted during winter 

My neighborhood sounded like war zone last night. Folks really went all out this year lol

Toasty so might as well get toasted

Wow you're not kidding!  Just checked Raleigh -- rain and 60, highs tomorrow low 60s.  Sheesh!  Meanwhile we are basking at 76 and partly sunny in central MD.  I feel for anyone that went to the Outer Banks or VA Beach this week.

Been in obx since Saturday and it’s been pretty miserable. Thankfully I got 2nd trip later in summer but this has been rough one

12z euro basically has nothing for next week.  Keeps all the rain in NC

Of course because it knows I’ll be at the beach and my typical start time of drinking at noon needs to be moved up to 9am to account for the chasing kids around

Same with me. Looking pretty gross. Hoping for a shift in the meantime so we get some sun. I’m good with sunny and afternoon storms but it looks like a 3-4 day wash right now.

Agree. Sun and storms are fine. But dreary cloudy rainy days just suck

Heading to obx next week so figured weather would suck. How bad does it look?

88 and gross

Feels amazing out

What a perfect spring morning.

I sure wish we could squeeze few more of these days in before we roast. This is perfect weather. Gives you a little pep in your step waking up to this

Assume 2020 will be considered the worst year? What a mess

I disappeared suddenly due to a health issue and minor surgery. I’m fine and back mostly lurking. 

We missed your long essays chief. Glad your feeling better. Take care

It was stupid and childish to not let people in this forum talk about the most unprecedented event in our lifetimes. Some of the posters active in this forum before have been posting in the New England forum instead, so they are still around, just not in here...

As much as I thought some of y’all were nuts, I still found hearing your thoughts and perspectives valuable in understanding where folks were coming from. Less about right or wrong but more about how to co-exist with folks that don’t see it like I do

Edit: Except for the trick. That person just sucked ass

I’d love to drink good beer everyday,  but at this point shots of Tito's feels more efficient

I also feel like Tito's has kept me healthy, so I won’t be participating in the mandatory mask stuff here in VA.

72 and sun finally starting to poke through. Why does it take so long for sun to come out everyday? Are we stuck in some crap pattern that won’t let go until we hit 90s and roast? Or is this so I don’t start drinking at noon everyday?

Starting to think this might be the theme of the summer and we don't see any big heat.  We're almost in June and it's been really cold and gloomy overall.

I just need to see the sun especially with all this stuff going on. It seems like even when we do get sun we have to wait until 10/11am befor things clear out. Past few sprigs haven’t felt too clean 

Stupid ass weather. Can’t ever get more than a day or so of sun before it turns to shit

Cracked open the peanut butter bourbon cereal killer stout from Independent Brewing co in Bel Air. It’s good, but more bitter than I would have envisioned and also on the boozy side for only being 6.8%. I guess that’s the bourbon flavors popping. Would get again, but it’s not on my top level tier of stouts 

I love stouts so much but def not a bourbon guy so feel like I miss out on lot of releases. I also like my coffee iced so maybe that bourbon burn is what steers me away. 

72 and sun out for first time all week. I may have to drink my lunch today 

Love the coffee flavor on this one. Brought the warmth to a gloomy chilly day, but yet not too heavy.
