    I can't mix either. Damn, Amy, were you out on the town last night?



    I was out on Friday-my husband does stand-up and he had a set with John Heffron at comedy works, good show, then went out with the girls.
    Today, DH got me my favorite beer-Agave Wheat, so I will have to have some of those. But I am going to get in a 4-mile run first!

    This is such an awesome thread. I seriously need to keep the daily alcohol calories to a minimum...I feel like that is the real culprit to my stalled weight loss. How do I keep getting back to this thread from my regular login area?....I'm new (and clueless)

    Celebrated my husband's birthday weekend with lots of friends, parties and, of course, alcohol.
    Back to the gym this morning, and intend to seriously cut back on drinking during the week.

    Morning lovelies!

    Alcohol is my trigger food. Even when I can keep it down to a couple beers or glasses of red, it bestirs the carb monster, requiring salty snacks sweet snacks and more more MORE!

    Lenten lifstyle is no longer enough. losing and gaining the same 2damnedpounds every week.

    Going out with a buddy tomorrow so having Beer Friday on Tuesday.

    This weekend I'll try: no hooch Friday, 8 oz each red wine only Saturday and Sunday.

    and ACK our office Wellness Challenge weigh in is this week. Expect no loss, will muster the self-anger and channel it into motivation... ghod willing!

    Link between osteoporosis and alcohol? Not sure but definitely linked to beer and other carbonated beverages . . :(

    No Beer Superbowl was a colossal failure, definitely not good to start drinking at 4:30 in the afternoon

    New week, new goal: 12 or less alcholic beverages for the week

    I can do this...right?!

    1 Strongbow
    1 Aces Pear Cider
    1 Blue Moon

    I think I ate too...some chips with crab dip, some fondue, some carrots...

    Has anyone tried the SkinnyGirl Margarita by Bethany from RHW? I got a bottle and I thought it was gross. It is supposed to be a super light drink choice. Maybe if I squeeze a real lime into it?

    I actually really like it...I just drink it with lots of ice...I think I prefer it because I don't really like the marg mix, it gives me heartburn

    Thanks...I also drank a huge red bull and grape vodka on the way over there. Forgot about that one. I was sick over the weekend, so I didn't drink, nor did I eat a ton, so it went straight to my head.

    There was a review of it in Esquire and they said it was really awful, like lemonade with melted ice and sacharine and dog drool.:laugh:

    For Super Bowl I did not do too badly on cals, even though the food choices were not ideal! I had a bloody mary, two agave wheat beers and 2 bud lights. To eat: chile, a quesadilla, chips and salsa, and a piece of red velvet cake.
    There was also some popcorn and it seems like I am forgetting something else.
