I hope you all survived Halloween.
Now it is the month of too much food and wonderful wines and ales. Hang tough my lushy friends.
I couldn't sleep last night. I didn't go to bed until 12:30 and I didn't fall asleep until after 2:00 my internal clock is so messed up. Oh well. The one good thing about my anti depressant is that I still really don't have an appetite. the weight is slowly coming off but if I work at it, it may come off even faster. :bigsmile:

November, huh....how are the holidays almost upon us already?!!!!
I'm not too concerned about my weight at the moment, it fluctuates up and down about 3-4lbs but I am in a good range, so my goal is to get back into a solid workout routine....I have been a huge slacker for the last couple of months!
Friday-we had a fabulous dinner. Split a beer before we left, I had three beers at dinner, then we stopped at the brew pub and I had another 1 1/2 beers and nothing back at home :noway:
Saturday-we split a beer before my nephews party, had 3 cocktails there and then we finished a bottle of wine when we got home.
Sunday-1 1/2 beers, 1 vanilla vodka and cider, 3 vanilla vodkas with root beer and 1/2 a glass of wine....I feel asleep so Lenny covered it in plastic where it waits for me this evening :laugh:
Monday again.....hoping for a quick week. I am looking forward to a Katie/Lenny weekend :bigsmile:0 -
Off to the beach today...have a great week everyone!0

Sunday=4 glasses of red wine
0 tonight. I started the 21-day clutch program for Aruba Nov. 23:)
There will be a few events and splurges along the way, but I am trying to stick to the workouts and make an effort to be more moderate.

November.
Today was Mom's birthday so there was wine with Mom and Gram. Came home planning to work out but Aunt flo has me exhausted so instead I'm having red wine and catching up on shows with the beasts.
Definitely getting a work out tomorrow though.
Husband also bought us each a 30 day cleanses so we'll see what that does.

Monday=0 drinks
Almost wasn't, a friend invited me to get a drink but then she had to flake.
should be 0 tonight, as well...
Kat, what's the 30-day cleanse entail? My friend did the 3-day juice fast, I am just not sure there is any value to that, but I have done things like a detox where I give up caffeine, gluten, and such, sometimes it can just jump start healthier habits.0 -

Tomorrow, my girlfriend from Texas is coming and I am sure that many cocktails will be involved.
Amy, what is the 21 day clutch - I am interested in it. I tried to look up some information but was wondering if you could give me a synopise of what it entails.
I am off to vote for what I believe to be the least of the worst.0 -
Kim just vote "none of the above"
I have survived returning to work. I am doing okay. I wish I was better. I had one vodka rocks last night. we will see what tonight brings.
It is cold and wet and blustery. Bleh.0 -
the 21-day clutch is a program by Ashley Conrad, it prescribes workouts 5 days per week, with the workout changing weekly for 3 weeks. The schedule goes: lift, cardio, rest, lift, cardio, rest.
The lifting isn't heavy, more circuits with hand weights and body weight exercises, but there's 13 or so exercises and so it takes awhile to get through the circuit 3-5 times. The first lifting was Saturday and it took over an hour so I don't see doing more than 3 x.
The cardio is intervals: 1 min walk, 30 sec jog, 1 minute sprint for 25 minutes or 10x.
There's an emphasis on stretching before and after each workout and there's this intense ab workout that is to be done on cardio days but I skipped it, it's too much!
There's a diet plan but I am not following it strictly, since there's no carbs hardly, and no dairy or red meat. I am trying to keep calories below 1500/day.
See what the scale has to say tomorrow, but I know it could be decieving because my sore muscles!0 -
keeping up with my daily wine....0

Morning Lushes!!!!!!!
Monday-8oz of wine
Tuesday-vanilla vodka with root beer and 8oz of wine
The way my day is going so far.....there will definitely be drinking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -
Amy, the 21-day clutch sounds interesting! Maybe I should give something like that a try!
Chloe - way to keep up with your daily wine...wine is good for you
Kate - vanilla vodka with root beer just sounds so tasty! I may have something to drink tonight...depends on if I go to the Y or not. This week I've had good intentions...but that just haven't panned out.
Went to vote last night & Kansas stayed a true RED state...which is not a bad thing in my book. But I was raised Republican...and I work for a firm that helped fund some of the candidates. I was going to go to the Y last night, but my allergies kicked in and I couldn't go 5 minutes yesterday without having to have a Kleenex. Today is a little better...thank goodness for Sudafed!
Monday - 0
Tuesday - 0
Wednesday - 0 or will have some diet Sunkist with whipped vodka...that sounds tasty right now!0
