    Thank god I have found this.

    I don't drink daily, only 1 or 2 nights a week. But it's night-out drinking (aka in current times, binge drinking)!

    I try to keep my cals low low low for these days but I still feel mega guilty.
    I'm 22 though and drinking is a big part of my social life!

    I am 51 and drinking IS my social life. :blushing:
    so the one day down and back to So Cal pretty muched sucked. I had cheap crappy over priced wine at the airport on the return and cheap airplane wine on the plane. I am looking forward to Vegas and the baby shower this weekend but I know with the food (read: In n Out Burger) I will drink and be a huge sodium puff ball by the time I fly home on Tuesday. Whats a future Grandma to do? I will probably vodka rock it tonight but we shall see.

    YUMMM..In-n-Out!!!

    I just love how they put all the calories right there on the menus now here in Cali. :noway: I don't even care when I go there. It's just too good.
    The *only* fast food place I will eat...and I only go a handful times/yr.

    I need a drink!

    But I've been drinking up a storm since planning to drink Saturday.
    I started Friday with G&T, and then wine.
    Saturday I shared a bottle of wine with friends. A magnum.
    Sunday, Early Times. 4 at least.
    Monday, 1/2 bottle wine.
    Tuesday, 1 bottle wine.
    Wednesday, 1/2 bottle of wine, and an Inversion IPA.
    Today, I hope 0. We'll see... resolve is intact at 4:30 PM.

    Early times..wow. I haven't seen that in ages. I remember my grandpa drinking that when I was a kid. :)

    I'm having red wine..I may go to something stronger because I just got back from a college funding meeting.
    Holy crap!! :noway: Why couldn't I have raised a football star?? College is freaking unbelievably expensive!!

I leave for Vegas at the bum fack cruck of dawn tomorrow (thats how it came out of my mouth yesterday and I liked it) then I will eat drink and be merry until Tuesday when I fly home.

    Monday, 0
    Tuesday, 0
    Wednesday, 5.5 beers
    Thursday, 4.5 beers
    Friday, 5 of something if I get off work
    Saturday, 0 working
    Sunday, 0 working

    I find that I am drinking less in quantity; so, I guess that's an improvement. Or, maybe, I am not used to beer anymore and it is way filling :huh: Went to a restaurant yesterday for a juicy lucy and some Alaska somthing ale....DELISH

    Hi lushes, not really keeping a close check on my alcohol intake at the moment, if I fancy it some days I have a couple of drinks and then other days I won't. Just thought I'd check in and see how everyone is doing though.

    This is a great topic since I seem to do fine with food intake, and consistently blow it with alcohol calories! Uggh!!

    Hello lushes, it's been awhile. I had a period of a couple of weeks I didn't drink last month or was it the end of Sept. Anyway, that was all she wrote for now. Back having about 4 tequila and diet Frescas a night.

    Oh, but last week I was in NC visiting my Aunt, and looking at the fall leaves. And the Biltmore, awesome! The first night there I managed to drink more than half of a 750 liter bottle of Cuervo. Yeow, did I hurt the next day. I promptly did not drink for the rest of the time there. LOL :sad: My aunt was amazed I drank that much. I rushed to tell her that that was NOT a normal evening!

    Cheers everyone; hope your weekend is going good. :drinker: :drinker: Time to get in the hot tub and have a few liquid refreshments. :wink:

    Yeah, remember that goal I had for myself? Big. Fat. Fail.

    I drank last night (2 large cranberry vodka and red bull), drank 1 on Thursday night, drank all day on Wednesday... *sigh*

    I so succumb to peer pressure. :embarassed:

    I've been into red wine lately since the weather turned cold here. I find that I only drink a glass or 2 of that and I'm done. I'm thinking I should stick to red wine for a while.

    Enjoy your In-n-Out Robin!!!

    Well, I think he already thinks that way :huh:

    They won the state championship for 4th grade and are taking the long 20 hour bus ride to Houston, TX in December. I pray that there is no snow. He smaller than most; but, I think the anger management issues help with defense...LOL

    Enjoy the red wine!!

    Nothing today...it's been a lazy day. I finished a book, started and finished a book, and started another. :smile:

    Wow... twice in one week I drank so much I mad myself sick! I don't get it though cause I'm not drinking more than normal. My body just isn't accepting it I guess. My mom and husband are both at the bar watching the Oregon Duck game right now... I tried but just couldn't hack it. I'm home now catching up with you all and watching movies with the kids. I hate being sick but I love the excuse to be lazy!

    I had one bottle plus 1 giant glass of red wine while camping Friday night.
    I had no desire to drink at all yesterday -- we will see about today.

    I like the idea of having all of those calories to eat instead.....
