    Have you seen this study:

    Beer hydrates better than water!

    So I soooooo feel better about the 3 coors light I had by the pool this afternoon! haha:bigsmile:

    followed by the two rather large vodka/perrier/lime's that evening... ugh, failing miserably this week!

    struggling with motvation. I am in the ahhh f*** it frame of mind and I just want to drink and eat whatever. I wont do it but I want to. I am thinking I will probably have a cocktail tonight too. I think I will call this week bust and start over next Monday.

    Had 2 glasses of midweek wine today. My justification is that a friend I haven't been able to meet up with in ages suggested going to the pub for a drink. Well I didn't need any persuading to accept! One of life's pleasures is sitting in the sunshine having a chat over a chilled glass of wine. :bigsmile:

    I had 2 glasses - just 2 lousy glasses of red wine last night. This monring I had gained a pound. Life isn't fair sometimes!!!

    I usually drink the whole bottle but refrained. What would I have gained if I kept on drinking until it was gone!!!

    Um...all I can say is that gambling wasn't going to well...so, instead of throwing money away, I decided there was good value in drinking...damn grey goose lemon drops...I have no self control

    I have total and upmost respect for you that can stop at 2...how do you do that?

    So, I don't know what it is, but no drinking last week for Wed, Thurs, and Fri. Saturday we had 2 parties to go to, so I drank a couple of beers at both, and then no drinking Sunday or last night. Monday and Tuesday I had 2 beers each. I am on a roll! A much more reasonable level than the 2 or so EVERY night.

    I agree, you look great! Be proud!

    For me, this week = FAIL. It was doomed from the start really. I haven't exercised since Monday, have been in too many social settings condusive to poor eating choices, and haven't logged my food (why bother, when I am consuming so many liquid calories).

    And yes, Miller Lite counts. For the extra 50 calories or so, you may as well drink a real beer.

    I would generally agree with that...However, I have been calling it "diet beer"...I'm dropping quality for volume

    okay, its time to stop. I don't remember last night:blushing: . I don't think it was good.:cry: I didn't even hear DH leave for work this morning. But i found a broken vase and my wedding ring on the floor. I apparently can't drink wine with dinner and then have vodka. I feel pretty bad today so I am thinking no drinking for a while. :noway:

    I highly recommend a virus to curb both food and alcohol intake...last drink was Thursday (3 miller lights)...which Dave advise me they really count. *F*%%$$#@%$%

    Well, nothing planned for this week that may trigger alcohol ingestion...but, it doesn't take much...like drinking on days that only end in "y"

    only had my wine last night and all was good. May be going to a hostile family reunion today. DH family and they don't accept me. Now that is reason enough to imbibe!

    Friday and Saturday nights both spent getting blitzed with my sister, it seems that in family groups we are particularly successful at this! Felt rotten this morning AND even worse when we worked out what we had eaten of my nephews stash of sweets n crisps n stuff.
    When drunk I make the most bizarre choices but I guess I won't be alone there ;) she is here till Thursday, chances of me going all the way back to square 1 are pretty low I reckon but this is not going to be a good week for my diet or liver c'est la vie I guess
