    I had a bottle of red and several vodka cocktails on Friday over many hours. Had a 0 on Saturday. 3 glasses of wine yesterday. Didn't gain any weight over the weekend which is always a plus!
    Starting pt for my shoulder today and hoping it goes well. Maybe wine tonight?

    Amy, I am so sorry about your kitty. Always breaks my heart when we have to send our precious fur babies onto Heaven. My thoughts are with you <3

    Thought about picking up some wine tonight, but I am going to try to at least make it to Thursday night with all 0's.

    2 0's in a row! It's been a while since that happened..... I would like to say I'd try again for one, but it is gorgeous here today: low 80s and low humidity, I'm off tomorrow, and grilling turkey sausages after Pilates. I reckon I'll have a couple peach vodka and seltzers.

    Sunday=0 drinks
    Monday=2 beers. I had a pineapple sour from O'dells. Anyone else like sours? They are like a tart shandy to me, I really like them.
    Last night we finished the second season of True Detective. Did anyone else watch it? I didn't hate like all the reviews made out like I would. I liked the first one better, but...
    Probably a 0 tonight, got the scale in the morning...

    a couple of sweet tea and limeade last night. It has been warm and muggy It is supposed to cool down. Kate, glad you had an "incredibly fun weekend".

    Great job on all the zeros.

    Ended up drinking a whole bottle on Monday. PT went great but the car broke down. The husband and I were ready for drinks when we were done dealing with that.
    0-Tuesday
    1-2-Wednesday? Probably a glass or 2 tonight. I'm down another pound!! I want to keep it up.

    Tuesday - 3 glasses of wine and 2 cocktails by the fire
    Wednesday - 2 glasses of wine at dinner. About 3 more at the neighbors'
    Shooting for a 0 tonight. And early bedtime! We were up till after 11 last night and midnight Tuesday. Which was super awesome because my son was up before 6 ready to party yesterday.

    Syd, I totally agree with you! I was hoping this season would be great considering how last season was...but I was so disappointed, I don't even know if I want to watch the next season. It was also sooooooooo confusing I had no idea what in the world was going on!

    I agree with all the True Detective talk. I loved season 1 but this season was just way too confusing for me.

    I have been pretty consistent with a glass of wine or a beer every day. I am enjoying being able to have a drink every day again.

    Looks like everyone is doing well.
    Doing fine here. Not moderating like I would like. Also finding it hard to stay motivated to eat right and exercise. It's an uphill-downhill road that I am sure all of you are on with me!

    Going to try to take it easy tonight. We have a kid birthday party and 3 hour canoe tour (we have to paddle) tomorrow so busy day. I'm going to a friend's for a painting party tonight. I'm driving so I think I'll pour half a bottle of wine out at home for after and take the other half. Because I have no will power for wine.

    Happy Friday lushes!

    I only had one tea and limeade last night. I think I need something new but I am not sure what I want. Perhaps I will just have wine tonight. The scale has remained fairly constant that past couple of weeks. I know I need to get my *kitten* in gear if I want it to start moving again. But sometimes I just really feel like a petulant child, so I pout and say, "I don't want to exercise." And since I am also the grownup in this relationship I say to myself, "Okay, you don't have to."

    So after all the True Detective talk I am not so sure I should even watch the first season. Hmmm?

    TGIF!!

    Gary I am right there on that damn hilly road with you.

    Monday-0
    Tuesday-1 vodka tonic
    Wednesday-3 beers
    Thursday-1 corona light and 1 margarita

    One day booze free...better than nothing right. I think I have moderated pretty well and stayed fairly close to my calorie goal.

    Tonight we are going to SIL and BIL which means boozing. Tomorrow, Lenny and I are going to see Trainwreck, lunch and the outlets for some bday shopping for me :bigsmile: Sunday, kayaking...should be a good weekend!!!!

    Have a great weekend everyone xo

    Well I was having a good weekend for drinking and then yesterday happened. I had 4 glasses of wine Friday and a beer before canoeing Saturday (which due to weather turned into walking a trail along the creek instead....boo!), 2 beers after, and a glass of wine at home. Then I decided to pour a glass of wine at 1 yesterday while I was making tons of baby food, and I didn't stop until around 11. I drank about 8 glasses of wine over the day. I'm a little sleepy today.

    Planning on a 0 tonight. Tuesday we're going to a baseball game so I may have a beer or two. Or maybe ice cream instead. I really hate paying $8 for a beer.

    Friday - lots of drinks
    Saturday - 4 beers
    Sunday - 0

    Tonight I may have a beer or two...I don't know yet. I didn't get much sleep last night, so it'll definitely be an early night!

    I had a 0 yesterday after having too much Saturday. Plan to rack up some 0's this week before taking off on a mini staycation Friday.

    Robyn, watch the first season-it's totally self-contained and different story and characters than the second. I think they tried to make it confusing with their "business transactions/treachery" so it was like-who's cheating who? but it wasn't really confusing if you could ignore the dialogue...
    I liked Trainwreck, did you, Kate?
    We started watching BoJack Horseman on Netflix, it is pretty funny, lot's of great comics working on it.
    Boozy weekend, although
    Friday=0
    Saturday=6
    Sunday= lost track, did our annual bike n brews, riding around to breweries and drinking, I mostly did tasters, and shared with others but the last stop is a little fuzzy.
