tempted to just drink my life away

peaked out at 235 lbs last month (5'9 188 in high school).....down to about 225 now. wont drink or stop this diet until i get down to 188 again

but im just not feeling it really. ill tell you why drinking is good. its cause if you know you will be drinking that night, you are excited all day. its almost better than the drinking itself. days just drag on without it. of course now the days extra drag on cause im not eating much but still. when i get down to 188 i will attempt this every single day:

wake up: protein shake 550 calories (spinach, fruits, berries, milk, protein powder)

lunch: small sandwich, piece of fruit 300 calories

dinner: 8 shots of vodka a night, small meal 1150 calories

total calories: 2000

Good idea tony.

only quitters don't drink.

seems balanced to me

good luck to you man

yeah guys it could be done. it is balanced cause of the very nutritious shake

only thing is it has to be sustainable so that i can work everyday without a hangover

I'm running Half-Marathon's right now...and my running partner works as a "Wellness Director" for a corporation...which is a fancy word for a Personal Trainer/Nutritionist/Chiropractor and when it comes to alcohol consumption and athletics/losing weight it's a bad an ugly road that you don't want to go down just from the unhealthy aspect. An occasional glass of wine is one thing, but taking on a hardcore drinking program could lead to all kinds of issues internally

Tony, have you been diagnosed as depressed?

Do you have days where you suffer from inexplicable sadness and have suicidal thoughts?

Is it sometimes a challenge to dress yourself and get out of bed?

If any of these ring true for you, please get help immediately. Counseling and medication are just a phone call away.

God bless you, champ.

You can reorganize and rationalize all you want, but when almost half of your calories are from vodka it's can't be
good

Why don't you just make alcoholic protein shakes in the interest of convenience?

feeling super bad the past 2 days. then at night i feel better. i know why....ive been taking these pills called greencoffeex everyday at 1 and they just stay with me all day and make me feel bad.......wont take them tomorrow

also 900 calories a day from vodka what do i care. id get all the vitamins and protein i need

Tony get most of your calories from alcohol and you will lose weight. Here's a weight loss plan for you

Breakfast: Bloody Mary with lots of veggies. Get your vitamins son. If you're still hungry have a beer.
lunch: you probably need to stack up on beer here so that you don't get too squirrelly but feel free to mix in a tequila shot
dinner: I would suggest a nice bottle of wine but feel free to mix in some cheap cooking sherry. Nightcap of something vodka in a plastic bottle.
