    Awesome job girls!! I went out to dinner w/ my parents and STILL didn't drink!! But I went over my calories by about a hundred. And I spent the whole day volunteering at my daughters school and didn't get a workout in. But on my feet all day. Restaurant food is sooooo caloric!! Blech- guilt

    The only thing I drink outside of alcohol is water.

    Me too, mostly. My own personal rule is to save liquid calories for alcohol. So I stick with water, black coffee and alcohol only. :)

    Bump- anyone have an inspiring mocktail cocktail recipe?
  • AJMB704
    AJMB704 Posts: 590 Member
    No mocktail recipes here...I just stick to plain sparkling water! Eating salad and drinking sparkling water for dinner. We have holiday candy tasting at work tomorrow so I want to skimp on my calories a bit tonight.

    I got some news that put me in a melancholy mood and my instinct is to grab a drink. But I am ignoring it and am going to process my feelings while drinking sparkling water.

    Question- has anyone found credibility in the five week projection shown when u complete ur journal for the day? I feel like I'm losing weight sooooo much slower than that! Maybe I'm losing inches, I didn't keep track. Frustrating. Especially since I cut my drinking down at least 75%!! Having said that I was a huge drinker before I started this....

    I really want a drink tonight.. Gonna stick with sparkling water .. I'm very pissy right now.

    Good week for me! Nothing to drink since Saturday. I hate to admit it but it's been easier since my husband is away on business. He drinks every night and it is so hard not to join him.

    @elizabethymartin I don't really take that projection very seriously. It is frustrating!

    Day 2 for me without alcohol o:)

    I would love to have a glass of wine right now, but what I'd love even more is to see NOT having any alcohol during the week make a difference on the scale again this wkend when I weigh on Saturday. I just keep telling myself, "You've been through much worse. You can and will get through the next 3 days without alcohol."

    Went to see a friend's new home last night, had 3 glasses of wine. Their home is GORGEOUS! So jelz. They have a fantastic fireplace that is double sided and has a great hearth built for sitting. And drinking 3 glasses of wine o:)

    I totally thought it was Wednesday.

    Hahah! Nope, it's Tuesday! Enjoying a kale Caesar salad and gnocchi with cauliflower and Gorgonzola. This dinner is rich enough that I don't need to add more calories in the form of wine. Fizzy water it is. Happy Tuesday all.
