Why Losing Weight Will Be Harder For Me Than Quitting Drinking

<p>Hello, everyone. Happy Friday.</p> <p>I do love Fridays, for all the obvious reasons. Way back when, I used to love Fridays because it was &ldquo;party night&rdquo; &mdash; the night to let loose after a long week of work and/or parenting.</p> <p>These Friday nights often began for me around dinnertime, when I would start making a batch of hot wings in anticipation of my husband&rsquo;s arrival home &mdash; the herald of the official start to the weekend.</p> <p>Pretty much without fail, I would crack my first beer of the night while the wings were dancing in a pan of boiling hot sauce (that&rsquo;s how I do &lsquo;em).</p> <p>I would normally stick to just three beers &mdash; half the six-pack I bought for my husband and myself to share. Three beers is not so bad, right? Sure, on the nights I stuck to that, no big deal.</p> <p>But often enough, after the wings were devoured and the beers were emptied and the kids had been put to bed, I would move on to something else. White wine. A shot or two of the Sambuca I kept in the freezer (it&rsquo;s dessert, don&rsquo;t you know?). Or maybe a generous splash, or two or three, of Bailey&rsquo;s on ice.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/52-fitness/why-losing-weight-will-be-harder-for-me-than-quitting-drinking-af93f787320d">Website</a></p>
