    See, Robin, what did I tell you? I could see me serving that at a fall/winter party...it's tasty but a bit much for every day.

    I love playing at the liquor store too. Ours is HUGE and they know us by name in there. :laugh: When we don't have the kids with us, we like to just wander the aisles and look to see what they have. My little girl likes to find all the pink and purple bottles and yell, "Dat my favoite color!"

    Hey Lushes....I didn't drink last night and will pretty much be done for the week until weigh-in...Friday night was dancing, dinner train ride...lots of vodka and wine, for sure...If I had drinks yesterday, there would be a serious problem for me to consider :blushing:

    I haven't kept count...but, it's probably more than what I set as goals...

    champagne and raspberries this morning and then probably some hot buttered rum while watching football. Making a crab and corn spicy chowder for dinner and I am also making a butternut pear soup with chicken sausage for lunches next week. and we all know I can't cook without wine. :wink:

    happy lushing all.

    heh. i do dumb blonde shots..but that's just because i'm blonde and dumb when i drink too much.
    i'm going to have to google to see what those are.

    Lol, SoCal! They might have been dirty blonde shots...tuaca, pineapple juice, and something else.

    ooh yum that all sounds sooo good.

    I'm going to try to be a bit less lushy next week, but I had to have a couple of glasses of red wine today just to mourn the end of another weekend.

    I totally want to join this group. alcohol takes up way more of my calories than i would like. the real demon is smoking. if i am smoking i drink way more. if i don't , it is way less. i don't want to smoke all the time or every day but i do want to enough that it definitley affects my attempts at weight loss. at the same time i like being active and i have started back running recently. my goal is to do a half marathon in march. i had joined MFP when i got my droid but have not started really using it until now. i am looking forward to using it as a tool to get to where i want to be. fell free to friend me!!! :smile:

    I should have followed your example, then maybe the Cards would be playing my Tigers instead of the Rangers.

    It's a window. Like playing pool. Sober it's terrible, couple drinks, better, too many drinks-terrible again. But I can't seem to maintain!

    Hey guys! So I went out Friday night and was pretty darn proud of myself. I had 2 drinks at one bar, went to another for dinner and had one very large beer and a salad, went to a third bar and had a shot of rum. My husband bought a couple others for me but I poured them in his chaser cause I was having too much fun dancing:devil: :bigsmile:

    Probably no drinks until thursday...then only a small glass of wine. I'm trying not to eat back my exercise calories monday-friday....kind of hoarding them for the weekend and create a weekly, instead of daily deficit!
    One night down, lets see how the rest of the week goes :wink:

    i started mfp whole hog on sunday 10/16 so my stats so far are:

    sun- 2 vodka and sugar-free lemonade
    mon- 2 glasses of chardonnay

    i was off monday and today to get some stuff done at home since work has been slammed and has left me no energy to do much after work then since on couch, watch movies and drink wine. or alternatively, sit on screened in porch, smoke cigarettes, drink wine. have gotten alot done, including some good workouts and will go back into work tomorrow feeling recharged.

    Going to dinner with a friend tonight and I might pick a place without a liquor license so no drinking and then maybe I would workout when I get home!

    I like the MFP feature that tells you if every day were like today you would weigh XXX in 5 weeks.
    Kinda sobering. At least I know why I haven't been able to lose weight....
    So starting today - if I don't have the calories I'm not drinking.
    (Part two of the challenge will be to exercise every day to earn more calories.)
    I'm usually only over on calories due to alcohol, I think I've tamed my sweet tooth and pretty much stopped the fast food habit.
    Wish me luck!!!
