Yes, we are social butterflies every weekend! We have something going on Thursday - Sunday this weekend. I'm already tired just thinking about it

Drink free today! I ate way too much Halloween candy at work to even think about having a beer.0

I went to a Halloween party last night and had only 1 beer but ended up eating waaaay to much candy and junk food instead. I seem to be eating more sugar to make up for not drinking as much.0

Pumpkin beer crawl. We shared beers throughout the night so we each ended up drinking 2.5 beers. But no water so I was hurting this morning. And less than interested in more pumpkin beer for the next year

I am not a sweets person at all but every night I've had a granola bar and that is something I never would have craved or eaten before. I could be munching in worse things so I'm ok with it. Just always surprises me how my body wants to replace those damn carbs that it does not need!!0 -
Ok. I slipped up last night. My SO is being difficult, I was being a grouchy mom and honestly sad to say but one cocktail made me a much more laid back mom. I hate that, but I hate being a b*tch to my kid more. Or letting my so's bs get under my skin. I only had one tho. And family dinner at the in laws tonight. Prob gonna give in then too. My bad.0

I was good sun- tues tho!0

I have been good all week. No alcohol. I have to stay strong Saturday with no wine. I have a Hot Chocolate 5k run Sunday morning at 7:30 AM0

I had 1 drink on Sunday; NONE so far this week. I'm feeling pretty good about that accomplishment. I desperately need the scale to be my friend on Saturday when I do my weekly weigh in. I had a 1 pound weight gain last week and I'm hoping to have lost it and a couple more. I am SO close to my goal weight, I can taste the victory.
No matter what, I am so grateful to all of you for being apart of this thread (and all the other ones we share). I've learned so much from all of you Thank you!
I was elated to come to terms with the fact that my glass or 2 or 3 a night, 7 days a week, was keeping me from shedding a few pounds. I still love my wine and am getting used to having a drink or 2 and enjoying it especially after not having a drink for a few days. I bet I must have cut about 2,000 calories from my life, weekly. My waist line looks good, my skin is clear, my mood is better and I'm sleeping and waking up much better. No matter what that scale says, I've made changes for the better and it feels good0 -
@TriniDiva_PA lots of thumbs ups!!!0

Good job everyone! I abstained sun-wed but had 2 shocktops tonight. This week has been strange for many reasons so I ended up Eating close to maintenance for the majority of the week. While I do feel a little guilt about it, I'm not trying to let the shame monster get to me. Tomorrow is a new day

Hi all! Great to see some more folks checking in! Yesterday I went to a business event, sort of networking. Had 2 half glasses of wine there. Then a friend and I decided to go to dinner after that and I had 2 proper glasses of wine at dinner. Bah. I guess it technically fits my rules but I HAVE to stop at that second glass! The third glass always makes me feel like crap. Whyyyyy do I do it to myself?
Going to dinner tonight with my husband, a proper date night at a restaurant that's been on our list for literally years. And tomorrow we are hosting my former boss and his wife at our home for dinner. They can drink us under the table. Oof. They've always been amazing, incredible hosts so we have to pull out ALL the stops on Saturday. I'm sure Sunday will be spent on the couch...
Have a great weekend everyone!0 -
I am staying in and off the sauce tonight hockey game tom w/ whole in law fam. They r fun and drinkers and I'm not dd...so that's out the window0

Tonight is water only! I have a bunch of cleaning to do tonight because we are having some of my husband's grad school cohort over for dinner tomorrow night. And I want to make sure all I have to do is cook on Friday evening! We are making butternut squash enchiladas. So good. There will be no chance to sit on the couch tonight after work...0

I lied. We ended up grabbing pizza and salad for dinner and a bottle of red wine sounded too good to pass up. I did minimal cleaning and ended up sitting on the couch with a glass of wine! I had one glass and poured a second but didn't end up finishing the second glass. So I guess that's a baby step win. Normally the second glass would have been gone as quickly as the first.0 -
Since ur diarys public and I live vicariously thru ur social life (lol) I did check ur dinner party menu and was a little worried for u that ur plans caved ! Was wondering where those enchiladas were! My SO is a meat only guy but message me the recipe if u can! I'm curious!!0

Happy Thursday. It is a grey day in Boston and a busy one for me so I'm going to have a hard time finding time for a workout today so no drinking for me tonight!!!0
-
Tonight I have a work happy hour. My goal is to stick to 1 drink, but 2 drinks is my MAX. I woke up dehydrated at 2 am this morning because of 2 glasses of wine. Really?! Ugh!0

I'm not sure how much more of a workout you intended to get in today, but for what it's worth, high-5 on getting your Zumba on!0 -
Ugh Thursday is hard0

Ugh Thursday is hard
Agreed, @tmbg1! Our work happy hour got canceled as both of our bosses are sick and the guest of honor is quite old and was advised to avoid folks who are sick. She recently fractured her ribs in a fall and can't take the risk of getting a cold/cough because it will hurt her ribs again.
Anyway, I'm at home eating leftovers and wishing I had a glass of wine to enjoy. But tomorrow is weigh in so I will instead keep my calories under and ignore the kitchen the rest of the night. Hope the scale rewards me tomorrow...0 -
One cocktail wed. Two Thursday. Prob a bunch this w/e0

I work holidays so it is a school night for me...but I really am not caring too much!

Thanksgiving...I basically forgot to count my drinks. Let's see.
Boozy coffee in the AM at the football game
A break while cooking
Champagne starting at 3 pm (2 small glasses)
A half glass of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc
Some red sparkling wine (it's delish) with dinner
A glass of Pinot noir after that
So like 5-6 drinks. Actually not that bad for thanksgiving. Normally it's much worse.0 -
Not doing so well this week, but at least I haven't gone off the rails completely!0

Last night was the big annual dinner. I had a glass of champagne, half a gin martini, and 2-3 glasses of red wine (my glass kept getting refilled, oops). Feeling pretty rough this morning...0
