Today again is a new week to be healthy. One of my best friends came to visit this weekend and well the rest is history.  I live away from my family and friends so they come for the weekends to visit.  The bad thing about that they are away and feel like they are on vacation drink, eat etc.  I told my husband I need 2 weekends in a row that no one comes and we do not go to dinner or out with our friends that live out this way.  I keep getting triggered and not accomplishing what I need to do to live.  So here I go again so sick of saying this every weekend, not going to stop trying until I'm a non drinker or smoker.

Wow. I sympathize because I feel the same when I get around my friends. Only difference is that they are local so I can kick them out anytime.....lol.
Could you let your friends/family know how serious you are about getting healthy and enlist their help to quit drinking/eating poorly? Surely they know about your heart issues and want to see you well? By the sounds of it, it is something you are going to have to deal with as you have every weekend to contend with. I think I\'d be having a talk with them.

I can totally empathize... I live in a \"destination\' city and people stay with me for vacation and more than once I have given in the \"party\" atmosphere... let me know how it goes... GOOD LUCK!!!
