I just looked it up and a piece of pizza is 140 calories. I guess for those with willpower having one piece would be fine. For me, I would need to have at least two, maybe two and a half, so that is like 350 calories, with no vegetables.

The fact you were planning ahead for dinner, and deciding not to have a drink was excellent. That is the mindset you need. I hate writing down all my food intake and what I drink but I have to or I overeat.

I cut out bread because I love it too much. I used to buy a baguette and eat it with butter for dinner. With a couple glasses of wine! Hmmm. So a dinner of over 1,000 calories and no nutrition!

I need to cut out pasta because I love it too much. I ate two bowls of pasta today, with white chicken. I don't know. Maybe...about 1,000 calories worth of food? I had a green smoothie with kale and berries for breakfast. Then I ate a hard-boiled egg white...it is protein and only 17 calories!!! I am full but I could still eat those marshmellow peeps in the frig! I completely agree that they are kind of disgusting. But I think they have less calories than all the rest of the Easter candy.

After awhile, with all the calorie counting and cutting out of favorite foods...the whole eating thing loses its appeal. I think that's a good thing.

I will tell you seriously, Larkie, that cutting out drinking wasn't easy. I don't drink to get drunk...but it does relax me, and I just love having a couple glasses. Even thinking about it is difficult.

I know that Lauren Mae, the YouTuber who lost 147 pounds did not cut out alcohol. She said she wouldn't because she loves to drink, so she managed to lose the weight without cutting out drinking. Maybe she makes up for it by exercising more the next day. She doesn't really say. I will have to ask her this in the comments section.

Good Luck! You deserve your hipbones!! I don't think I have seen my hipbones since 2012. I guess what I want is my hourglass figure, perfected. I have a perfect hourglass figure that looks great at the right weight. But at 5"4' my figure can't accommodate extra weight.

Don't listen too much to what I am doing. I am being a little extreme because I want to lose a lot of weight in 90 days.

Good idea about writing down water consumption. I absolutely need to do that!!!
