Yes Bridget...positive thoughts...things always seem to work out even if it's not the way expected xo
Monday-delicious mango mead we got that the meadery Sunday.0 -
Positive thought for Gemma. I know about special dogs. Bodi still has some really bad days.
So I celebrated my 5 year service award at work and I also celebrated my 2 years with the same job. Both huge milestones for me since I never stay in the same position for more than a year and the longest I had been with a company before Boeing was 2 and a half years. I had a little too much wine last night but I am good.
So I gotta get back to it. Take care lushes!0 -
I cooked with wine when I made my marinara sauce...so of course I had to have some.
Monday -0
Tuesday -2 glasses of wine
Wednesday - more wine? Depends how much exercise I get in.0 -
mani/pedi rescheduled for Thursday, I went to a friend's and we split a bottle of red, and part of another one. Came home and had a little more from the box.0

Last night I had 8oz of our delicious IPA and 1 vodka tonic. I can fit the booze in, but its the snacks that are killing me, I need to start having some self control :grumble:0

Monday - 0
Tuesday - 0
Wednesday - about 2 bottles.....oops....so
Thursday will be a 0 even though we're both off work. I may have a beer.
I have decided I shouldn't drink wine during the week. I went to the zoo with my friend I've known since 1989 and her 18 month old. Then after our girls napped, she came back over and we proceeded to drink wine and hang out on the deck. Then our neighbors came down around 9pm and we stayed up too late. I actually felt really bad, like weak and dizzy this morning so I came in at 10. Not enough food and too much booze..... One of these days I'll learn my lesson. Ugh. My plan is to not get Schmamered at Forecastle tomorrow.0 -
Last night I had a beer and then a large glass of wine.
Good luck, Ashley, those music festivals make it easy to drink too much, especially if the weather is nice...0 -

I was going to make a week of all 0's, BUT tonight is women's beer club with my friend which I didn't know was this week until yesterday!! So, I'm excited for that!!
0 -
Monday-0
Tuesday-2 glass wine
Wednesday-1 glass wine
Thursday- 2 glasses?
Fri-Sunday hoping for the best...no hangovers!!
lack of self control with snacks and wine...hmmmm...sounds familiar!! When I have 0's I usually end up eating sweets to make up for it....and I don't even really like sweets!
I had a good balance yesterday with my calories. had 1 glass of wine. Hoping for something similar today with good exercise before we take off again for a long weekend. Party Friday night up in LA then hitting Angel's stadium for a game Saturday...never been there...but stadium food and beer is always a must. I've been gaining and losing the same 2 lbs every weekend.

Great job on the zeros guys!
Just pluggin along here. Managing to slowly lose some pounds.
Have fun at the ball game Sydney. I went to a couple Mariners games some time ago. I was totally bored. But then I didn't have stadium food and beers....0 -
2 glasses of wine. last night. I have made this box last for 2 weeks. Unheard of. They are usually gone in a couple of days.0
-
3 vodka tonics last night....probably some vodka soda tonight.
Tomorrow we are going for a nice long hike and then lunch. Sunday, kayaking and lunch with SIL & BIL...should be a nice active weekend, probably won't counteract the beers though....
We start Level 2 of the Shred tomorrow...I am pretty sure I will not be able to move my arms come Monday, especially after kayaking :laugh:
Have a great weekend everyone!0 -
you can't go to the stadium and not have food and beers! inconceivable!
Last night=pitcher of coors light, how many is that?0 -
We pretty much move from concession stand to concession stand! And the food is good now...so yeah...the 2 lbs I lost this week will be back by Monday, I'm sure.
Happy weekend lushes!0 -
It was very very hot yesterday for the PNW. We hit 95 officially. I cooled down with some vodka and pineapple but I had a huge glass of iced water in between so I did okay. It was too hot to do much of anything (we don't have AC) so it was a very chill kind of day.0

Hey all. I did OK this weekend. I drank all day Friday at Forecastle. You may have read (I saw stories on national news outlets), but the festival was evacuated during Sam Smith. We were already packing up (it was a sleeper as expected) and all of the sudden this huge gust of wind came through; it literally felt like someone turned on the AC! Then they came over the speakers and told everyone to calmly and quickly move towards the exits and get away from the stage. People were grabbing onto poles, taking cover under the bridge, etc. We really sort of expected a tornado. But we just got heavy rain. Had I not been drunk, I probably would have been pretty scared. :drinker: Anyways, the rest of the weekend I behaved. Only had 2 beers and a glass of bed wine Saturday and nothing yesterday. I'm doing a challenge with my sister where I have set my goal to only drink 4 days/week and only have 16 total drinks. Sadly, it will be a challenge..... Aiming for no more than 5/weekend night and no more than 3/week night. Wish me luck! I am ready for a break. I've been hitting it hard for about 4 weeks now. Have a great week lushes!0

Hey everyone! Sounds like everyone had a good weekend.
Gemma had her x-ray on Friday, and it wasn't good
She has hip dysplasia and arthritis already at her young age of 9 months. Poor baby girl. You wouldn't know she is in any pain though...she is just as happy & energetic as ever. We should hear back from our vet today about what the surgeon at K-State is recommending. Most likely, we are going to manage her pain for as long as we can with meds (and save for surgery)...then have to do surgery. Unless they have a payment plan because we definitely do not have $2,000-$3,000 to just drop right now. UGH! Needless to say, lot of drinks were had this weekend. 0 -
Ugh bridget...so young to have issues! Hope the meds will help her with the pain.
Friday was out of control. Many whiskey cocktails. Got to bed at 2:30am and barely remember doing so. Only had 1 very large beer at the game on Saturday. ..which was almost rained out. Crazy weather in SoCal! Remnants of hurricane Delores..luckily our seats were under cover..but I definitely carbed my way through the stadium food to soak up the booze from Friday. Yesterday I had 2 beers and 2 glasses of wine but slept great and feel good this morning. Time to dry out and exercise. We're home for a while so time to take care of the body. Getting my boobies squished tomorrow morning

Sorry to hear about the pup, Bridget, that is so strange for such a young dog!
Friday=4 beers
Saturday=2 bloody marys, 2 glasses of wine, 4 beers (started early)
Sunday=0
Ashley, I like your challenge, it sounds do-able, I think. I will see if I can try that too!

Like Robin said, very hot here in the PacNW. Into a cooling trend with highs in 70s or low 80s.
Syd, I saw in the news about the rains in SoCal! One extreme to the other.
Did not do well with workouts or calories the past four days as we were at our son and DIL house babysitting the grandson. Will get back on track this week.0 -
It is so strange...especially considering her age! My vet said it is rare that he ever sees that in puppies so young. But be that as it may, we will obviously do everything we can for her! Doesn't make us love her any less...she is our little sweet puppy!
Sunday - 0
Monday - 00 -
OH Bridget....so sorry!!! My parent's first Rottweiler had it at a young age too, I think she was diagnosed before age 1. After two hip surgeries, she was good to go and lived a nice long happy life. I know Gemma will do that same
We are having a heat wave in PA too. Friday-Monday topped off around 95. Saturday we went for a hike...nothing too crazy, only 3 miles, it was HOT!!! We were supposed to go kayaking but decided to postpone it because we didn't want to fry on the water....it can be dangerous stuff!!!
Saturday-1 flight and 1 beer at lunch, 2 margaritas and 1 vodka cocktail back at the house. 5 ain't bad for a Saturday.
Sunday-7 beers
Monday-??? I'm up for one and if Len has something, so will I!!!0 -
Just heard back from the vet & the K-State surgeon basically said the same thing my vet did, either manage with pain meds or surgery. However, my vet recommends we do surgery sooner rather than later, especially considering that it is so bad and she is at such a young age. So, he is going to find out the cost of the surgery & if they have a payment plan....otherwise, my hubby & I are seriously considering setting up a GoFundMe account!
Anyway...my plan of a 0 tonight is gone. I will be having some beers.0 -
Bridget, I'd be having beers too. Things will work out...try not to stress too much xo
Monday-2 vodka sodas
Tuesday-I'm gonna try for a zero.....0 -
Hugs Bridget.
Monday - a 312
I was grilling turkey brats and zucchini....so......
And I've changed my goal to 16 drinks a week straight up. No day restrictions, etc. So I can have 2 a day or 16 in one day. :drinker:0 -
Hang in there bridget.
I had 2 glasses of wine. Mammogram this morning...I'm more worried about shoulder pain than boobie pain.

Just found this group last night and had to invite my partner in crime, the pickled ginger. You are our people! Lol
We drank two bottles of wine on Sunday for sushi night. None last night, but going to likely have a bottle tonight. Had a glass and a half before supper and going to have the rest as I watch netflix.
I made it to the gym again to get my Summer Sizzle card punched. I actually ran for almost half of it!0 -
Hi elenagking!!! Welcome!!! Great group of peeps here!!!!!!
Monday-2 vodka sodas
