    Definitely did my fair share of drinking this weekend...too much to count! Going to try REALLY HARD to stay good until at least Friday or Saturday! But I say that every week....and once hubby has his nights off (Wed. & Thurs.) all bets are usually off. LAME!

    Need to hit the Y hard soon!!

    Hi all, back from the lake house. It was a lushy, busy but fun weekend on the lake. Would have been nicer if we were there for just relaxing but my work out was walking all around Kyle's youngest sisters campus for her various graduation things. Thanks all for the reminders to not stress, I've been drinking far too much lately because of said stress and it needs to stop.

    Hope you had a great birthday Mama Lush!

    Kate, you always get back at it and get it done which is one of the reasons you are awesome :flowerforyou:

    Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend :smile:

    I think I've had drinks everyday for about a month now so it's time to get back to none during the week until the weekend. So starting today it will be a 0 until Friday and starting next Monday or maybe this coming Sunday it will be 0's until Friday's. I still want to lose some weight and even though I'm working hard the alcohol definitely makes me poofy so it's time to dry out :grumble: even though we have a ton of beer in the fridge and the warm weather is here. I did have a great time just bumming around on the couch last night with the fiancé once we finally got home and settled. It was a loooong day and I was planning on a drink or two when we got home but I was just too tired, weird!

    Ok, so ...

    Monday - a few drinks
    Tuesday - 0!!!!!!!!!!

    Sounds like everyone did the lush thread proud this weekend. When I wasn't drinking..I was eating. I'm ready to get back to a routine for a bit.
    Laguna Beach coming up, followed by the son's graduation..so I need these next few days to get my act together before I jump off the healthy bandwagon again. :drinker:

    Monday was the only day I haven't drank anything in a long time!
    Grillin tonight so probably will drink beer or wine with the steaks.
    Tomorrow is the watching party. I think we are going to start watching the Tudors-anyone like it?
    Bome June 4 I am only drinking Thurs-Sat. or that's my plan anyway. I want to lose some belly fat before Vegas for July 4!

    Loved the Tudors! Even if you are not into time period shows, the eye candy is unbelievable for both the males and females. They do take some liberties with the history if you are familiar with that era, but the visuals (the sets, costumes and the people) make it worth it...very entertaining.

    Pup got spayed yesterday...she was zonked, but woke up this morning and is bouncing off the walls. Zeesh...I am supposed to keep her calm for 7 - 10 days...Lord help me!

    Monday - 1 margarita made with Starbucks coconut lime juice (so good)! One of the many benefits of having my son work at Starbucks:)

    First 0 in probably a month last night and it feels great :bigsmile: I didn't even want anything to drink.

    0 tonight too, it's wedding weight crunch time, Friday however there will be wine as I'm hanging out with Mom and Gram. I'll try to keep it under control though haha.

    Monday - a few drinks as it was still part of the weekend given the holiday :wink:
    Tuesday - 0
    Wednesday - 0

    Man it's good to see some 0's again :smile:

    I used to work at Starbucks, I liked the job and my co-workers but a lot of the customers are jerks and of course they are always right and you have to be nice to them, I don't miss that part.

    Hey Lushes...been MIA for a while, needed a break from MFP logging and exercising in general...ready to get back on track.

    Monday, 0

    Plan is for some yoga today...it's a new type of class so I am hoping it's not too brutal. Aiming for a low number this week since I have a pickled liver at the moment.

    Chicago-bound in about 10 days for Kyle's grad party. I bought a superfun dress that I need to firm up for otherwise I'll need lipo. Lots of family and friends will be there and I've got to make 45 look the new 32. If not, I'll wear the dress to a wedding end of July.

    Only one more month of continuous baseball games and I can get back into my groove before football.

    Yikes at Vegas in July! Tudors is awesomeness!!!

    Diana..hope your pup doesn't make ya too crazy! Glad all is well post surgery.
    Kim...you can do a lot in 10 days. I've seen you do it before.

    One glass of wine last night. Maybe another tonight...grilling some chicken. Hard not to have a glass while sitting outside in the beautiful weather. We shall see how it goes. Looking forward to another really good workout today.

    Awwww, you've just inspired me...I'm off for W1D1 of C25K...I can never, ever finish the program. My daughter is doing it as well; so, the comradity may be beneficial.

    I sent 4 of the 6 boxes home with parents. They just left today. I had a party on Monday and used 2 of the boxes. I figured I better get them out. I liked the Bota Box Malbec and the Pinot Grigio was OK (I like it a bit crisper).

    Trying to resist a drink or two but I'm quite annoyed with the fiancé. Can I just start with a full set of 0's next week since this week started with a holiday? haha

    Heh okay well see the neighbor brought us a Blue Moon and a Boulevard sampler pack on Friday. Well then we had a BLT party and my friend brought over a case of Bud Light. Another friend said he was bored and brought over ANOTHER case of Bud Light. Toss in the fact that it was Memorial Weekend? Yeah we just finished up all the beer last night.

    Aside from Friday and Sunday, it's really only been 1 or 2 so not too bad. ;D

    Another successful drink free night last night...two in a row :huh: Going for another 0 night tonight before we head down the shore tomorrow morning where I will proceed to get s-faced!!
    Wish me luck not drinking tonight though....we are closing on, what has been, a very stressful refi on the house. :grumble:

    Had 4 bud lights last night and since I didn't have dinner and drank said bud lights relatively quickly I had a nice sleepy buzz. Fell asleep quickly, slept great and woke up to a beautiful day here :smile:

    Going to lunch and a movie with the best friend/MOH so drinks again today, like I said this week was pretty much a lost cause but at least I got 1 0 haha. I'll for sure be good next week, thinking I'll start this coming Sunday but if not then definitely Monday.

    good luck with the refi! it's a PITA but you'll feel better after, I bet!

    Another wine night for me....just one. I woke up sore as hell from my workout yesterday..so I'll probably just do some cardio today. Maybe another glass of wine with dinner. We shall see.

    Such a pain...banks are ridiculous, not to mention the awful housing market, but THANKS!!!!

    Not to rub it in but it is my friday, woohoo!!! Nothing like a 3day work week after a 3day holiday followed by another 3day weekend :wink:
