    February, WHAT WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Bowling was so much fun on friday!!! Had 2 beers at dinner, 3 long island iced teas at the bowling alley and then 3 cocktails back at the house. We were hurting a bit saturday. We took a walk to the market and brewed. Fun day. 2 beers and 5 manhattans and were in bed by 10. We felt great yesterday morning, took another walk to the market, then I made soft pretzels, chocolate stout peanut butter cups, roasted cauliflower soup for tonight, and homemade generals tso....YUM! I am ready to explode and ready to stop being such a oinker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    :drinker: to a new week

    Holy Moly! How can it possibly be February 2nd already?! Where did January go?!?! Hope everyone enjoyed watching the Super Bowl! I only drank ONE beer...WHAT?!

    This weekend was pretty low key. Took Friday off of work and my hubby took me out to dinner for my birthday. Then my MIL came to town on Saturday and we went to hubby's cousin's house for a birthday dinner...and I took our sweet little Gemma with us and she met 7 dog cousins! Boy was yesterday a great day...so worn out!!! All in all, it was a good weekend. Hoping to get myself back to the gym this week!! I'm slackin'!

    Sunday - 1 beer
    Monday - 0

    Too much yesterday :neutral_face: This week is a rest week but I'm still going to pull the treadmill out and do some walking.

    We're also getting hit with more snow and sleet :grumble: There will be wine later.

    While the east coast is getting a hefty dose of winter, the Pacific NW has had a mild one. In fact, my allergies are letting me know that spring is just around the corner.

    Getting into the routine again, hope to loose some weight and start moderating!

    Kat I can't beleive that snow. Like Gary said, things are really mild on this side of the country. Keep up the good work.

    I wish I could get back into a routine again. I really need to before our Jamaica trip in May. I have some serious work to do.

    two small vodkas to get some much needed sleep.

    Have a lushy wonderful day.

    Just checking in to keep up with the lushes!

    I think its so funny that they are making such a big deal over the east coast snow storm (which it is), but barely mention the Midwest. My yard looks just like yours Kat. It was crazy. My poor mom lost power for like 24 hours! Everything was closed yesterday, and I work for a University, so the extra day off was nice.

    They keep threatening major storms for the Philly area but we keep sneaking by with just minor annoyances. Yesterday my boss was concerned about what the area would be like so he told us to work from home and honestly I wouldn't have had the slightest issue getting but F it...I'll take it!!! Got a good home work out in this morning, now I am sipping on some coffee in my pjs and loving it!!!
    I got a zero last night and could really use another today but Lenny is gone for the night and since I will be home myself all day and night I just might pour myself some wine later!!!

    Wolf-candy cane vodka...hmmm might have to keep an eye out for that..who makes it???

    Have a great day everyone!!!

    It is just cold here, not snow or anything. I absolutely hate driving in winter weather so if it does snow, I would hope that it happens during the weekend instead of during the week because my work would not be cancelled. LOL.

    Had a 0 last night (even though there are beers in the fridge!). Even did an hour workout at the Y! Yay me! Tonight I plan another 0, but I'm going out to dinner with a friend and then have to stop by the store since we are kind of bare on food in the fridge. No gym for me tonight...but that is ok! :)

    Another 0 tonight. Yeah...I'm that sick. At least the scale seems to be giving me credit for all this misery.
    75 and sunny here. The husband is in Park City and he said the snow is terrible. The west coast really needs rain/snow desperately.

    Hey all. I've been being pretty consistent and having about 2 glasses of wine a night. I say I'll not drink, and then Eric cracks a beer, and there's been wine on the counter everyday and so I open it/pour it. But it seems after about 2-3 glasses, I get a headache and fall asleep on the couch. Then wake up to go to bed and am up for a while. So just moderating for now. Maybe I should try some liquor; pretty much been sticking to red wine. Otherwise we're all doing well. I'm almost 3 weeks out from surgery and feeling better but still sore. Langston is a great baby and his sister seems to adore him. :heart:

    Great news about the babies and your recovery!!!!! He is so beautiful!!!!
    I find liquor a lot goes down so much easier and is a lot hard to stop!!!!!!!! Good luck with finding your groove!! xo

    Yeah I forgot how much of a work out shoveling snow was. I just shoveled a path through a snow bank that was taller than me :s in addition to cleaning up the driveway, shoveling our walkway and clearing out in front of the mailbox so the mail truck can get to our box.

    It's more of a big deal for places like NY because they have nowhere to put the snow, they have to have trucks drive it out of the city. We just have huge snow banks and if they get too big the town will cut them down and bring the snow somewhere else.

    I still have my bike ride and housework to do too, so much for a rest week, haha. Oh well, I'm so determined to lose this weight and fit back into my fun clothes. I've still been having my wine because, well, it's winter and there is a lot of snow so that calls for wine, haha. However, I've been really good with food and portion so I figure it balances.

    Ok, time to get stuff done so I can sit my sore, tired body on the couch and have some wine :drinker:

    Two vodka and ruby red last night.
    Scale has stayed down since the 10 pounds I lost in depression mode. Now if I could just kick start my butt to do some exersize other than playing tug of war with Bodi.

    glad Langston is a good baby.

    that was for you, Robin!
    I did not drink my dinner, but I have to drink hot liquids to keep from coughing so I drank enough tea to float a boat. I almost made a hot buttered rum, but refrained after checking the calorie count!
    Monday=0
    Tuesday=1
