    Kat, chinese food is one of my weaknesses! I have to stay far away from it because I love it so much!

    So far this week:

    Sunday - 0
    Monday - 0
    Tuesday - will be 0

    I'm hoping to make it all the way to Friday or Saturday (or beyond) without drinking. But, we'll see how well that works out. LOL. It is TOM so that may change!

    Sydney...have fun at your b-day weekend...b-day, right? I think the idiot has to flare their ugly head every once in a while to keep us in check...now, it's someone else's turn. You didn't get escorted out of a club, do you? Ha, ha

    HAHA..no Kim. You take the cake with that one, my dear friend. Someone seriously needs to take away my phone and computer when I'm drunk though. :embarassed:

    Well I managed another 0 last night. This is the point where I usually cave. Let's see if I can hold on another 2 days.

    Sat-0
    Sun-0
    Mon-0
    Hoping for Tues and Wed as well. The scale inched downward today so that's motivating me.

    Had a serious food hangover from the chinese we got. Where I know I can control my alcohol if I just listen to myself it doesn't matter how much or little of chinese I have, I always feel terrible the next day. Think I need to just completely kick it.

    I get the same way. No more for me. I'm done with it.

    I like Chinese but I can live without it, especially with how bad it makes me feel the next day. Fiancé thinks I'm allergic to msg but I just think my body doesn't like Chinese, way too much sodium. I'm fine with giving it up, bread I could never give up haha.

    0 last night and just got done with an hour on the bike, looking forward to bumming around on the couch with the fiancé when he gets home :smile:

    I SUCK! The son just told me I need to sleep in tomorrow for my birthday..so I instantly translate that to "well in that case, I should have a drink!"

    That's it. 3 days really is my official maximum I can go without alcohol.

    Fiancé started earnings which means most if not all nights for the next 2 & 1/2 weeks he will be late and I'll barely see him :ohwell: Here comes the test on whether I can refrain from the booze during the week. Although I'm definitely back onto one of my fitness kicks so I think I should be okay and even okay on the weekends when we have drinks. Time will tell though. I've got Shoulders & Arms and a bike ride for today's work out :smile:

    Monday-0
    Tuesday-as predicted I did not refrain...12oz of wine
    Wednesday-not sure yet. I missed my morning workout to sleep in and it was GLORIOUS. I have to hit the gym after work and that will determine whether I drink or not. I haven't been to the gym at night since the new year :drinker: heres hoping that its not as crazy busy anymore!!!!

    Hubs and I couldn't sleep last night. We are super stressed about his work changes that happen today. So, at 11:30 we decided to get out of bed and drink some wine. Then, we got some more wine. We are sick. Nothing else I can say.

    Hubs has 2nd interview with new company on Friday.

    Happy Birthday to you
    Happy Birthday to you
    Happy Birthday, Dear Sydney
    Happy Birthday to youuuuuuuuu

    Hope you have a great day

    Monday, 1
    Tuesday, 3
    Wednesday, probs...

    I am going to play tennis with my daughter today. I should burn some good cals there. Mostly squats for ball retrieval because I suck.

    Okay - I will recap for the week:

    Sunday 0
    Monday 1 vodka tonic
    Tuesday 3 bud a rita (these suck by the way) Bud Light Lime Bud Rita
    Going to try to slow things down a bit!

    My youngest daughter's first Prom is this week and she has kept me very busy with her high maintenance self! Hubby is still out looking for work. Oldest daughter starts new classes in a few weeks. I am already tired, lol!

    Sydney - Happy Birthday!

    Kim - good luck with your hubs and have fun playing tennis - I suck too, but great workout!

    Kat - you can do it!

    Ok, what it a bud a rita? I like beer mixed with marg. Remember tequiza? I liked that too... even in Mexico I ordered a beer and a marg and poured them together.

    Last night: 4 beers, all different kinds. No reason to, I was drinking alone...

    Thanks for the bday wishes! I'm just waking up, no hangover, which is good.

    Kim, I hope things go well for the husband. Job stress is an awful thing. Mine really hates his and it takes such a horrible toll on your well being.

    Taking off for a long weekend tomorrow. Probably not much logging but just assume I will do all you lushes proud. :drinker:

    I was thinking this morning it would be amazing to just light some candles tonight and have some wine. Fiancé will be late so it would be a nice "me" night, BUT, I'm going to wait until tomorrow and see where that leads me.
