    Okay, I'm getting back on the wagon...with the cutting back, eating well, and working out...next week. (Ack! Where are the smilies?????)

    Hubs and I are heading to Grand Lake this weekend, sans kids, sans his parents, sans anyone else. He's going to fish while I read, we'll get some work done, we'll sleep in, and close down The Lariat Saloon tonight and tomorrow! So, I'll definitely let my lush flag fly this weekend!!

    Hi All, This thread is cracking me up...this is my first post on here.

    I have put WAY too many liquid calories into my body over the past two years, and this past weekend I got into a snit. I decided I needed to get onto MFP and actually start using this website, and get back on the diet track. I'm currently about 25 lbs from where I want to be by my next birthday (New Years). My "normal" diet kickoff routine is abstaining from alcohol and soda. (My poison of choice is rum and Diet Coke) Today is day 5 of healthy eating, tracking calories, and no drinking, and I could kill something for a Diet Coke (with or without rum). Aarrgh.

    Not sure what else to say other than "Hi lushes!"

    No drinks since last Sunday. Actually, I did have a little B-54 (Kahlua, Baileys, & Amaretto on the rocks) last night after work cause I was just feeling like I needed a little treat ;) I'm working tonight again and not sure if I'll feel like having anything at 1am. I'm so tired of this shift (2:30pm to 1:30am)! I make way more tips but I'm so frickin' exhausted all the time. I haven't even ran for like 3 days because I've been trying to catch up on sleep! Guess it's time to start looking for something else :(

    brunching at a fancy restaurant for DH's birthday. Decided to drive so that I won't over do it on the champagne.

    Friday I ended up drinking more than orginally planned....1/2 Double IPA, 3 margaritas, 1/2 flight of beer and 1 raspberry iced tea vodka with peach schnapps and fresh brewed ice tea.
    Saturday-I have no idea how many beers i had. We were at a Beer and Bourbon BBQ. I had atleast three teeny shots of bourbon and WAY too many beers.
    Sunday-0
    Monday-0

    Here's a twist...I was discharging a pt from my hospital that was a drinker with a long history. The NP discharging her was so mad that she wrote a script for AA meetings, no beer, wine or liquor and folic acid and thiamine. So, I am the one to review the d/c information with her. Seems like of hypocritical to me...
