    The front wheel and frame were locked to a pipe. This was in my underground parking garage which is supposed to be private as it is!

    Ok, I made it Sunday thru Wednesday, 4 whole days...tomorrow, is a night out...I have strategically planned this as an indulgance night. The key is not to get crazy. It's like once I get started, I don't stop. Such a binger!!!

    Anyone got any ideas on how to control the quantity. I mean it tastes good and makes me feel good; so, why would I want to stop. All right, pass on the willpower!!!

    there was a very cold lonely bottle of shiraz in my fridge (keeping it there since it's been too hot & humid lately)...
    I managed to avoid eye contact with it when I opened the fridge!

    My workout is this morning..
    Husband is at a football game (Canadian league) tonight...
    let's test my willpower.

    KIM - Think about trotting down the strip with those hot heels and those sexy slim hips swinging!!!

    I know I said I wasn't going to drink at all before, but I did give in this week. However, I am restarting my goal of not drinking at all. LOL

    Well, I've had a grand day - found out that I got a raise after our recent reviews! :bigsmile: And that it was effective July 3rd and tomorrow's paycheck will contain the retroactive moneys!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    So naturally, I called my boyfriend and told him we were going to Murphy's tonight. I will eat a lovely dinner, save half of it for lunch tomorrow, and have at least one flirtini or glass of wine....maybe two.....or so........

    I was going to ask about Shiraz in the fridge... maybe football isn't the only thing they do differently in Canada.

    I would say a raise is reason enough to go out. Congrats!

    You know those old tootsie pop commercials with the owl... how many licks does it take to get to the center. Well, in my case, it's how many days before I cave in to drinking. ONE.... A TWO HOO... THREE. Three. I had a miserable day at work yesterday (and another today). By the time I left I was too drained to work out. I went and replaced my bike tire ($100 - ouch). And then it was off to the bar. I doubt I will be back on the wagon until next week.

    Here's the thing, and I know I have mentioned it before, but I just can't understand it. When I just focus on working out and not drinking and staying good with my diet for 2 or 3 days in a row, I see instant and dramatic scale movement, and it's sustained. I have been hovering around my current MFP (-16) weight since I posted it (July 5th). This morning the scale is six pounds under that, all from this week. Every morning the scale is lower, as if I had been losing calories all along and someone opened the drain on my bathtub and now its all running out. I know, there are worse problems to have right? So why they hell don't I want to be "good" all the time!!!

    haha - well well, you are yet wrong yet again. My husband is a DIE HARD BILLS FAN... he goes every year. And I agree, with your shiite QB and well, team, I'd drink too!:drinker:

    I like teams that actually make it to the playoffs :glasses: :devil: Bolts are my team.

    Cowboys here. They are annoying at times, but they aren't the Bills (they won both of those).
