    Not bad for a weekend. One pint last night and one bottle of beer tonight. Try for 0 on Saturday.

    Never pick up the phone on a friday night when it's your wacky relatives calling. i was at zero, then when i hung up around 8:30pm i had 2 STRONG whiskey/diet cokes.

    I soooo agree with you.

    New plan of action/personal challenge. I'm going to try and only have alcohol on Saturdays but I won't get too crazy if Friday comes and I want some wine with the fiancé.

    Took yesterday as my rest day so I made up for it today and it was a darn good bike ride. I'm starving now though haha, time for some grub!

    So, many drinks Friday night but it was with my girlfriends who I don't often get to see and we had a blast so it was worth it. Bit of a hangover yesterday but mostly just felt tired. Had a bottle of prosecco last night then most of another bottle with the fiancé. Feel fine today and especially good now after my bike ride :smile:

    Hope everyone has a lovely Sunday!

    Sunday - 0

    Alright, so as a sort of last celebration of no booze unless it is Saturday maaaaybe Friday, I just had a glass of red. Fiancé and I ate out after going to Whole Foods because we were really hungry and there was a good place we've been before right across the street. We didn't get an appetizer, weird for us, nor did we have drinks and we didn't get dessert .... I was proud :smile: We were talking about booze and I said we had red wine at home and he said he wasn't drinking tonight because he's being healthy, insert how a glass or two of red a day has its health benefits. Anywho, we get home and he decides he's going to have cookies and milk and asks if I want any. I say no, I'm being healthy, so he asks if I want wine and I say no .... Then say one glass. He pours me a glass and I sit here for 2 hours deciding whether or not to have it because of my new plan. Then I see one of the characters in the movie we are watching having a glass of red and I think it's a sign and here we are, I've had the glass as a last hurrah and am ready for this new plan of action :smile:

    It was delicious by the way. We've had it before but it was so good this glass. Maybe it was the sitting there for 2 hours? Who knows, but it was some scrumptious red :drinker:

    Managed to go all weekend without any alcohol. Didn't really intend to, just didn't feel like drinking. Plus, all we had in the fridge was cotton candy vodka. The smell of that stuff makes my stomach churn.

    i predict this week to look like this:

    Sunday - 0
    Monday - 0
    Tuesday - probably 0, but hubby is working, so my Valentine's date may be a bottle of wine.....
    Wednesday - Valentine's dinner w/ hubby (lots of wine will be consumed)
    Thursday - 0
    Friday - 0
    Saturday - dinner with my girlfriends...probably some wine or beer will be enjoyed.

    Stupid Grammy's... Wife and I had a good time watching the show. I think the multiple Rum and Diet Cokes helped. My week of sobriety isn't off to a good start. Maybe I'll shoot for weekday sobriety.

    Sunday- 4 Rum and Diet's.

    not to bad yesterday. I had a few tequila and crystal light margarita mix. made them really week. so not tooo bad. at least it wasn't vodka. and tonight I start aiming for zeros again.

    wlgreen I think the only way I could get thru the Grammy's would be with copius amounts of liquor. I just really don't like award shows anymore. I used to watch them all the time. Now I can't stand them.

    Kat, I think having one glass of red when you're feeling the urge to drinkmis a great idea, especially if you can stick to one. Really, the health benefits outweigh the negatives if you're within your macros.
