Like Minded Lushes - Septemeber 2011

SoCalWoman

Well, I did it! I lost 2 more pounds this week..and I leave for vacay tomorrow! YAY me!
I'm not going to log the weight loss this week..since I know I'm going to be drinking and eating like crazy for 7 days. I'm going to try to exercise some while gone (I have access to a gym)...probably play some tennis and definitely get in the pool.

I'll check in on my phone but have zero plans to log meals. Taking a big bottle of my friend the goose with me..as well as some wine and beer. The booze takes up almost as much room my clothes (which is basically just tank tops, shorts and bathing suits!)

Have a great week lushes! I will do you proud :drinker:

last night was not good. Vodka called out to me and since I had a crappy eating day (DH had a 25th anniversary work lunch and I was invited and then my group had a pot luck after that which I tried to avoid to no avail.) I gave into the siren call. I think I had 4 drinks with 2-3 oz of vodka in each. I fell asleep watching TV but I have no idea what I watched.

Its soooo pumpkiny (yeah not a word, but...). People told me Dogfish head was the best pumpkin beer but I think Weyerbacher takes the cake!!!!! Some day soon, my husband and I are going to do a pumpkin beer taste test. We have been collecting several over the last couple of weeks....like FREAKIN nerds :laugh:

I'm not a huge beer fan...but I'm finding that I'm a big fan of the seasonal beers. I was all over the Summer Shandy and Ruby Redbird this summer, and I'm loving all the pumpkin beer so far. So, I don't think you're nerdy at all!!!

Can't believe it's the end of September, this year is flying by now. I've been pretty good this week with the alcohol. Friday night and I'm having to make do with a shot of vodka and some flat cola as I haven't got anything else in :grumble:

Hi everyone!
I'm new here. Logged my first week and it was quite a shocker for me to see just how many calories in wine I consume. I keep telling myself if I just quit then all the extra weight would disappear. Truth be told, I could but I just don't wanna. What I would like to do is cut back a little.
Happy Friday Everyone.

I was really thinking of having a beer, but I didn't. I also got booted from Kim's comp. :sad: But, I'm going to keep on, keeping on!

Thanks Amy! Fell tonight (would use my friend's b'day as an excuse, but I only had 2 drinks with her) but Thursday was a zero!! And how do I feel after abstaining 5 days, and now have drinks? Eh, it's okay but the alcohol doesn't taste inviting.......Saturday I think no thanks, I'll eat my calories. Hey, not saying it'll be easy!! :grumble:

P.S. And it is a very weird change that has occurred and I don't quite know why. I'll ride it out. But maybe it'll be a new habit developing????? One can only hope. :happy:

I miss mimosas! And I work in a bar, so I'm having a difficult time no shift drinks for me for the last 3 weeks.
