Okay so Summer is on its way out. Fall sets in and we get Oktober fest and mulled wines and crisp apply cider and all kinds of lushy goodness. The hectic routines of kids and school sets in. the dark long days (at least for me) make themselves known. Stay strong and powerful my friends but never deny yourself life's simple pleasures. (And whatever you need to get thru it all)
Last night was appletini on the rocks. I was cranky yesterday. The good news is that the scale hit a new number for me today so yay!.

YAY congrats Robin!!! I haven't weighed myself since we moved in with the in laws.....I know I was up cause I was feeling pretty pudgy but I can tell I am heading back down...my clothes fit good and I have been fairly consistent with working out, so maybe one of these days I'll unpack the scale????????!!!!!!

Where did the summer go?? It makes me sad...but we've got 2 more trips this month...one starting this weekend and another after the son goes back to college at the end of the month. I cannot believe he will be a senior this year!!
I had wine last night. Shooting for a 0 tonight.
Have fun Kate! I'm so not a camper but you make it sound great. 0 -
Heya guys, I see we all made it to September in one piece! We will be leaving on a ten day canoe trip on Wednesday so I won't be posting for awhile. You all take care and I will check in when I get back!0

I can't believe summer is over...however, I'm happy it is! I'm not a summer kind of girl at all....blame the pale, pale skin. I'm more of a hoodie & jeans or leggings kind of girl.

We leave for SF in 8 days...and I cannot wait!!0 -

We haven't camped since I was out of work so its been 4 years. I miss it too. Hopefully next summer. *sigh* I bought my last bottle of Firefly for the year yesterday and had lemonade and Firefly. It was my farewell toast to the season. It is rainy and yucky today so I will have some more tonight and pretend that it is still summer. 15 days until my trip to NYC. I can't wait.0

Still very summer-like here. Let's face it...I'm spoiled in San Diego. ..it's summer 9 months of the year.
Off to our last beach getaway and I'm looking foward to it. The ocean makes me a happy girl. The blood pressure immediately drops. We're staying at a new place I found...our room is right on sand. I'll take lots of pics!
oh...I had a 0 last night and probably another tonight. Also dropped 2 lbs which I won't log since I'm sure I'll put them right back on this week. :drinker:0 -

Okay lushes, hang on to your hats, I had a ZERO last night. First one in a long long time and I didn't even really think about it. It just happened.
Way to go Amy. Syd good job and have fun at the beach.0 -

Going to try for another 0 tonight since I'm sure I'll drink plenty this weekend. We're headed to see friends in St. Louis.0 -

Had 0's all week! YAY!
Hope everyone has a wonderful Labor Day weekend!! I'll be in SF this time next week. YAY!!0 -
Happy weekend lushes!0

While Fall is my favorite season I don't view Summer over until the temp drops which it hasn't so it's still Summer for me. I also want to put up the Fall decor but it doesn't seem right when it's 90° out but maybe I will tomorrow.
In other news there's not much going on, haha, just lushing along. I do have a pinched nerve in my left shoulder so P90X is sidelined until that is all better, still riding the bike though.
Happy September lushes! 0 -
I thought I would pop in and say "Hello"!
I have been a bad lush or a good lush depending on how you define it. Life has been sucky lately...had to close the restaurant due to issues with the landlord. We still have a food truck...I am working two jobs so am very busy. Glad to see the lushes still lushing! Looking forward to some cooler weather and a three day weekend!0 -
I was going to harass you if you didn't check in soon...good to see you wolfie 0

Hey lushes.
Friday - had a beer on the way to the pool, had 2 (snuck in) cocktails there, and a beer at home.
Saturday - 8, 9?? We got to our friends' around 1:30, had cocktails with lunch and never stopped. I got kinda hammered.
Did a little better Sunday but still drank all day, but went to bed at 9:15 CST. Had 2 beers and a cocktail yesterday.
Today is a 0. Tomorrow we have a birthday party and then my parents are in town. SO not many 0's to come here.....0 -
From a lush stand point I have really slowed down. I had some tea vodka and lemonades on Sunday and 2 dirty martinis yesterday. I did drink a half a bottle of white on Saturday. 7 more working days til NYC. Yay!0

Ahhhh back to reality!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had such an amazing time!!! Logged 12 miles in 3 days...Lenny says "why do you always have to be so active on vacation" :laugh: We had a good amount of downtime and lots of drinking, as well.
Wednesday-7 beers and 1 vodka tonic
Thursday-cider tasting, beer tasting and wine tasting then some vodka tonics back at the camp site
Friday-1 beer, 1/2 bottle of vodka and 2 vodka tonics.
Saturday-????? who knows!!!!!!!
Sunday-beers, lots of beers
Monday-3 beers and two vodka tonics
Think I'll dry out for a day or two.
In laws leave for Italy tomorrow, so Lenny and I can pretend like we live alone for the next 3 weeks :laugh:0 -
Hello everyone! Hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day weekend! I know I ate & drank way too much.....and I worked today, but then my hubby & I are leaving for San Francisco in the morning to celebrate our 4 year wedding anniversary & see our wonderful friends. I am so, so excited! Won't be stepping on the scale for quite some time though.......:/0

Kate sounds like you had a great time. Enjoy your privacy for the next three weeks.
Bridget I hope you have a great time in SF.
I only had one vodka rocks last night. I am trying to listen to my body on whether or not I really want it or am I just having a drink out of habit. I am doing the same thing with bad things like donuts. If I truly ask myself the answer is no more than anything. When the answer is yes then I give in. I am just trying to break habits.
Happy Lushing all0 -
Good for you Robin!!!!
Well...so much for my zero...1 vodka and sprite

I have been saving cals for drinking and having a little almost everyday I think, since all those 0s:
Wed (concert): 6 beers
Thursday: 2 glasses of wine
Friday: 2 glasses of wine
Saturday: 2 bloody marys then 4 beers at the Rockies
Sunday: 1 beer, 2 glasses of wine
Monday: 3 beers
Tuesday: 2 glasses of wine
I don't know if I will log any more 0s this week. I started the new Jamie Eason plan on Body Building .com it's "From flat to all that" and it's in a blog format now, which is kind of weird, I have to say, I don't love that, I downloaded the PDF for all the weeks so far, but it's hard to navigate for the video instruction (you have to go to "older posts" and scroll down, then "older" again and so on, til you find the part you want. It might be ok if you started when she did, but it is not user friendly coming in now that she is almost done with the 12 weeks.)0 -
Good luck with the new program Amy...does sound a little complicated but I am sure you'll get it done!!!
Monday-3 beers and 2 vodka tonics
Tuesday-1 vodka and sprite
Wednesday-0
Thursday-not sure but I probably won't have many extra calories for boozing so I might skip it.0 -
Monday - 3
Tuesday - 0
Wednesday - 4 glasses of wine at the birthday party
Thursday - Going to stop to fill up my half growler of beer and some wine. Mom and Dad get in town in a few hours so we will be drinking. Need to take it easy. Work is going to be insane this month. Maybe that's the diet Gods forcing me to not drink (and be hungover) during the week.0 -
2 small vodka lemonades Picked up my documents for the New York trip so I am all set.0
-
I had two 0's this week and then yesterday morning I had to put my oldest kitty to sleep
I know he feels better now but it's never easy and especially after finally feeling better after losing my other sweet kitty and Lily last year. I'm still going to try for 0's though... But not today. 0
