    I can't believe that I never came across this group before!!

    Definitely a glass (or two) of wine a night girl - but I normally have the calories left over for it, so I don't feel bad.

    I loved that someone else uses the 'saran wrap over the glass of wine and back in the fridge' tactic - my husband laughs at me for that!

    It's because we're stealth like that...

    Actually, the one time someone came here and was all, "Have you ever thought about the underlying issues that you deal with through drinking? Maybe you should work on those..." and I got all Mama Bear on their *kitten*. I think we scare people away. :laugh:

    There are weeks where I'll drink every day, and then some where I don't drink at all. It just depends.

    But, more often than not, I drink.

    I'm so looking forward to my wine tonight--in fact, I was going to take a rest day from working out, but I need the cals! :drinker:

    Amy, did you do the Zombie Crawl last week?

    Robin, where are you?

    Think I'll stick to Scotch, seems less likely to add calories than a mixed drink would. Right? Am I fooling myself? If so, don't tell me. :-)

    So my whole not drinking until Friday plan just got totally derailed :ohwell:

    A friend just invited us over tonight for his famous chili and I'm sure wine and beer will go along with that! This also means I will not do my planned workout tonight.

    So I will definitely be working out the entire weekend....and possibly not drinking either Friday or Saturday, but too soon to tell:drinker:

    Amy, did you do the Zombie Crawl last week?

    No! I was actually all dressed up to volunteer at a formal event and saw all the zombies on 16th Street, missed my chance again!

    Robin, where are you?

    I am right here, why do you ask? :bigsmile:

    I think I will repeat last night again tonight. Not healthy but it was tasty. (see early post this morning on the previous page)

    2 shots of pear vodka and attempted to have a big glass of wine, but ended up spilling it all over, so I only got about 3 out my 10oz of it. So instead of pouring another glass I gorged on tootsie rolls.....DAMN HALLOWEEN CANDY!!!!!! Making my husband hide it from me :laugh:
  • Well my big fat 0 went to having one glass of wine, which took me almost hour and half to drink which is awesome for me... Going to try to only have one for a Friday night... I have baby class with my daughter on Saturday at 9 so need to behave..
    Happy Friday to all my fellow LUSHES....:drinker:

  • I've been doing good at not drinking during the week... But since I didn't have to work today I drank last night with a couple of friends who brought beer over. I lost count after the first 18 pack was emptied. :drinker:

    Not sure about tonight... I'm hoping to be a 0, but will have an extra teenage boy. So that 0 might end up at 6!

    I had a snifter with about 1.5 ounces of Gran Centenario Anejo tequila last night. Sipped it. Heaven. I had so many calories left, and had a great workout, so I indulged in the finer things.

    I have several tequilas I keep for special, I've had that one on the shelf for at least 5 years. Better with age, like me. :wink:

    decorated halloween cupcakes last night. I had one cupcake before it was frosted. Frosting, and cake, really aren't my thing. But three of us split a bottle of white wine, then a bottle of pinot noir, it really wasn't good but we finished it anyway-you know, can't waste it! Then I had two coors lights for no reason.
    Thursday=5 drinks

    Yummmmm!

    So tonight just got home from the dentist. My tongue feels like the size of Texas and my bottom lip is as big as Alaska. I don't think I will be eating tonight and I don't feel like working out. I hate not being able to feel my mouth. Uggggh.

    I plan on drinking some wine but I don't want to start until I am sure I can taste it and that it won't dribble out of my non working mouth. :laugh: cuz that would be alcohol abuse.

    Kblue... I'm with ya on the stupid Halloween candy. I've managed to keep my intake to a minimum but those damn little caramel squares just call to me.

    Kim... Look at all those 0's! See, 12 hours shifts are good for something!

    No drunkin' dancing for me this Friday darn it! I had to work. I did have a few beers last night though. I probably won't have another till Halloween now I think. Tomorrow my son and nephew play their bowl games for their football league so I'll be on the field from 11am till about 4 then my daughter and her friends are getting ready for their homecoming dance at my house. I'm actually really excited they want to get ready there but I'm super nervous about all the parents that I've never met coming to my house for pictures. Not sure why, I mean my house is not messy... it's lived in, but not messy or dirty. I don't know, guess i'm just a little crazy:tongue:

    to the lushes I had a few beers, didn't eat dinner and will hate myself in the morning. However, I need to figure a way to do this because I do need one night out with my friends.
  • Had a large beer @ the bar and three glasses of wine. Going out tonight hoping for only 2 tonight.
