DRUNK WEEKEND. 24 = too many.
Guess I'll finish out the year in lushy style. Then going to try to limit my drinking in the new year. My goal is to limit to 4 drinks. If I absoluately have to have something else, it's going to be beer. I. POUND. WINE. The end.
All my lushes have a great Christmas! I'm off for 3 days after today.0 -
Friday at the in laws I have several manhattans, felt good on saturday though. Then beers and vodka for the majority of the day. Again didn't feel too bad yesterday, so I had 3 beers and 2 glasses of wine.
Probably nothing tonight, unless we go to the liquor store...cause we are wiped out.
Off tomorrow and wednesday. We aren't doing anything. Brewing beer tomorrow and then xmas day we will jsut hang around.
Happy Holidays Everyone!!!!!!!!0 -
Friday was awesome. The game was great..Lakers won...I drank and ate waaaaay too much. I felt pretty crappy Sat and did nothing. One glass of wine.
Last night had a couple as well as a whiskey. Feel good this morning. Have some grocery shopping to do then s5art my Xmas Eve cooking. Tamales will be first up. I will get quite a bit done today so that tomorrow I can just enjoy the family. After 20 years I kinda have the routine down so that its not too stressful. I will drink wine but nothing too over the top quantity wise since I need to function tomorrow morning. Then all bets are off lol. :drinker: :drinker:
Hope you lushes are enjoying yourselves!0 -
Friday night, drank at our favorite brewery in Manhattan, KS & then drank more beers later in the evening...
Saturday night - probably about 4-5 beers...
Sunday night - 1 glass of wine...
Hoping that I get off work early today (like 3ish) and then I'm going to the gym, picking up needed items at the grocery store & getting some beverages from the liquor store cause I don't work tomorrow and Wednesday! WOO HOO!
Really wish I would've had today off too...cause both my bosses are gone, and I'm left doing nothing! Trying to figure out what I want to make for dinner (if anything)...not finding anything yet!
If I'm not back before Christmas...hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!!!0 -
Hi all!! Figured I would check in before the big holiday =] I'm glad to see everyone is lushing it up since I clearly can't. I know a glass is fine here and there but honestly that would just be a tease so I haven't even bothered. I've just stuck with my fake stuff.
So tomorrow we go to the sister in laws for our main dinner then Christmas day we go to my Unc and Aunt's for my family's dinner. Normally after that we go to my husbands best friends family's house because they've done that for years but apparently this year we aren't getting together so we'll just be coming home which is fine by me because I know I'll be tired and wanting my pj's.
We had some lovely snow but it was mother nature had a hot flash this weekend and yesterday being the warmest at 65 all the snow melted :frown: It's supposed to be 25 degrees on Christmas and we won't have any pretty snow :grumble: At least it's supposed to be mostly sunny.
Even though it's a big holiday week I'm going to try and still get my 5 work out days starting with today even though it's just been a rainy, cold day out and all I've wanted to do is sleep. In fact I think mom and baby will go get our work out done now in case husband wants to go out for dinner since he has tomorrow off.
Hope everyone is ready for the holiday and enjoying it!!!!
Merry Christmas one and all!!!!!

Hi lushes!! I really lushed it up last night with vodka...I'm super lazy today and catching up on housework.
I was super spoiled by hubs with a new fitbit (I lost mine last summer), a Galaxy 3 tab and a new flat iron. Life is very blessed here.
Tonight another gift exchange and probably drinks!!!0 -

OK, I've decided to another JUST SAY NO JANUARY. I did really well with it last year. So, I will have 2 passes for the month which I will have to use for football or bowling. Strict changes need to be made on the home front.
Thursday, getting ready to go for apps and beers
Friday, 0
Saturday, bowling and vodka
Sunday, Bears and Green Bay game - STOKED
Tuesday, Champagne - but, I work until 11:30 so it will just be a couple

I'll join ya
I've stuck to my goal and worked out Monday as well as both Christmas Eve and Christmas and then again today. I was annoyed that husband decided to go into work today so I decided I was going to be lazy on the couch with the fur babes all day. Which I was. Then husband and I grabbed an early dinner out and I came home and worked out. Now more relaxing on the couch.
I cannot believe the holidays are already almost over, just New Years to look forward to and then it's 2014!!! In about 3 months I'll have a new baby :noway: I still can't believe that, mostly because I still can't picture myself with kids but I've certainly warmed up to it and cannot wait to meet baby girl I'm very thankful I've had such an easy pregnancy and hopefully that will continue through delivery of the little one.
I'll be leaving my Christmas decor up until after New Years and then the house will probably get a good cleaning
Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday :flowerforyou:
Ps. Welcome Jessica!!! This thread is absolutely wonderful We are one big lushy family, although right now everyone else is carrying my lush card because I'm pregnant with my first little one. 0 -
Kat, I will love to have you on-board....
This is when you know that you've hit rock bottom...
.......................................went out for apps and drinks for a gift exchange tonight and ordered plain soda water :noway:
Tomorrow is a long 12-hour day. I haven't been manadatory-cancelled in a long time. It would be nice to get that phone call tomorrow!!0 -
Hey lushes. Welcome new lush. Well while my drinking was out of control the 2nd and 3rd weeks of December, I am proud to say I somewhat moderated while my parents were in town. Got pretty drunk on Christmas (5 glasses of wine at in laws, then 2 more at home), but overall just maintained a buzz. So yay me! Still, planning on reeling it in in 2014.
Kim, I'd join you for another round of JSNJ, but I'm trying to get pregnant, so I'll be having 9 months of just say no. :drinker:
Speaking of babies, Kat, when did those 6 months fly by? Wow! So are you officially in your 3rd trimester? Baby girls are so fun.
We had a great Christmas and it was so fun watching Daphne play with all her new toys. Christmas is so much more fun with a kiddo.
My parents are leaving my house today and we have nothing planned for the weekend. I am excited. I may actually not drink tonight.0 -
Nothing last night and might actually have nothing again tonight....we'll see.
Tomorrow night we are going to a food and wine dinner with my parents, it was their xmas gift to the family. Should be a fun time! I'm sure there will be cocktails before dinner.
Sunday, couch time?!!!
Welcome Jessica!!
Kat, I cannot believe you are so far along, time sure did fly!!!
I make no promises with JSNJ, but might get a few zeros in here and there with you guys.0 -
Lol @ Kat joining in on JSNJ.
I'm not making any promises about joining in on that...but I will definitely kick it up a notch in the exercise and moderation department...with hopefully several 0's stuck in there.
I had 2 glasses of wine while binge watching Scandal. I'm hooked.0 -
Big fat ZERO last night AND I put in an hour of cardio @ the Y! YAY!!
Tonight, hubby & I are going to our fave brewery & then finally going to see Catching Fire! Super excited!! So, probably will have at least 3-4 beers...:drinker:
Tomorrow night KSU is playing in the BWW Bowl, so I know that beers will be had! But, I plan on hitting the Y tomorrow...so I can work off the calories before I consume, right?? Plus, I have to go to the Y tomorrow because if I don't...I won't meet my 15 workouts for the month, and I can't buy myself the new iPhone 5s I want! It is what is motivating me!
Welcome to the group, Jessica!
Kat, time just flies! Baby girl will be here in no time!
I can already say I'm not going to participate in JSNJ...January is my birthday month...and as of last weekend, I found out that hubs & I will be getting 2 new roommates come January 10th until June....my husband's little brother & his giant dog. Needless to say, I am NOT happy with this, but I can't really say no. It is going to be a huge change having someone in the house with me in the evenings. I really enjoy my solitude & being able to do whatever I want....so, this is going to be a huge adjustment. Thankfully it is only 6 months. I will have to keep telling myself that:ohwell:0 -
Kim, I'd join you for another round of JSNJ, but I'm trying to get pregnant, so I'll be having 9 months of just say no. :drinker:
Speaking of babies, Kat, when did those 6 months fly by? Wow! So are you officially in your 3rd trimester? Baby girls are so fun.
I've been meaning to ask how the baby making is going As for me, technically I'm 6 months but as far as pregnancy terms I have one more week until I'm officially in the third trimester I believe.
I can't believe how fast it's flown by, I credit that to having such an easy pregnancy and also being pregnant during the holidays because we all know how fast those go by :frown: I know these next 3 months are going to FLY by and before I know it I'll be in the hospital (:grumble:) with a little girl in my arms!! I have a cute coming home outfit picked out, she's going to be one comfy little girl =}
I've had trouble sleeping for over a year now so my body is well conditioned to being up most/all night already "thankfully". The thing that will be hardest for me is not being to work out for a little while haha. But again I know time flies with babies and before I know it I'll be back to my work outs. Husband and I already have a plan all worked out. I'm very lucky to have him and honestly he's the only man that could have changed my mind on having kids. We've talked about it and I know a lot of moms like to or just happen to take on all of the work when it comes to the kids but it's not just me having the baby, it's husband AND I having the baby. And while there's obviously things I'll have to do that he can't (breastfeed) he will have just as much time with little girl as I will =] He will also be picking up some house cleaning slack haha.0 -
Kat..that's awesome you've had such a great pregnancy. And I agree...there are some men in the world that will make you change your mind about becoming a mom..because you know what great father's they will be. Mine did most of the night feedings for me since I was home all day and just needed a break. Otherwise I think I might have completely lost my mind.
Ok I just got on the scale :noway: Someone please give me the standard...oh that's just water retention reply so I don't freak the hell out.0 -
Oh that's just retention Syd But in all seriousness it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :flowerforyou:
xoxo0 -
I haven't weighed myself since October. Thinking about taking weight and measurements some time in the near future. :noway:
BTW Kat, month 1 was not successful. Which really was okay so I have been able to enjoy booze during the holidays. :drinker:0 -
you're the bestest katie! :flowerforyou:0
-
I agree with Kate, Sydney! Definitely water retention!!!!
I am boycotting the scale until January 1. Although, even though I've been working out pretty consistently for the past 3 months, my weight is staying basically the same. I'm not even drinking that much...but I refuse to give it up! I think it is the BC...and that is my story & I'm sticking to it!0 -
BTW Kat, month 1 was not successful. Which really was okay so I have been able to enjoy booze during the holidays. :drinker:
Lucky duck!! I'm finally at the point where I simply can't wait to have a few glasses of wine :drinker:
And in all honesty Syd a lot of it probably is water retention. With all the holiday indulging our bodies cling to water for dear life. I've managed to get my gallon a day which seems to really help with that but I've certainly indulged as well.0 -
Thu - 4 drinks0
-
You're all the best! Thanks :flowerforyou:
and I agree...I'm going to just avoid the scale until after the son leaves on the 2nd and in the meantime just try to up my water intake and get in some exercise. I've done both already today so I should be good to go on some cocktails later :drinker:0
