It’s been a hard two weeks since I gave up drinking even though it was only at weekends. My mother is in a Care Home and as I am an only child with no close relatives it’s been playing on my mind a lot. But after the first weekend it’s got better and I don’t crave it as a crutch at the moment.
Start weight 86.2 K
This week 83.9 K
Loss 2.3 K
So I’m a happy bunny as the weight is going off slowly but going in the right direction.

Hello Marmite555 , Welcome to this amazing forum. I suggest you spend some time clicking about to find your way around. It's easier if you have a lap-top as there are several threads. If you’re using another device I strongly suggest that you use the web page as opposed to the app at least until you know your way around.
Have a good read of the pinned post “Welcome Newbies” and follow every thread.
You will find today's weigh in there. Just reply to your host H61g.
We also have a Drinkless Club, which I have found to be very useful. I used to drink 2 glasses of wine (I live in Italy) every single day, now,with the help of the Drinkless Club and our host Eleanorba I hardly drink alcohol at all.
I strongly suggest you read and contribute to the Daily Diary and participate in a Weekly Weigh in.
You will find there's loads of tips about better eating, from other members. Sharing your daily menu not only helps you stay committed, it can help other members too.
On a side line here, a quick question please - why does my badge on the WL forum, sometimes have my weight loss, and other times, has my starting date on HU forums? If I should not be asking this here, on Marmites post, please would you be kind enough to PM me? No rush, I know you're all very busy. Thank you.
It’s should show your weight loss. But sometimes badges fall off, no idea why! It’s a HU glitch, so we leave the start date badges on, sort of hovering behind, so that you’re not naked 😂 ( No badge generally means you haven’t been greeted by Admin )
If you notice it missing again just bring it to our attention. 😊
Hi again...sorry to be a pain in the rear end! but my weight loss Badge has fallen off again (it seems to be much like me! lol)....please can I have a 'working at it' badge? Hopefully that one might stay on, and, I am going to be working at it for some time to come 🙃😉
