    Where's MamaLush at?

    What? I check in at least once in the morning.


    Last night was another bottle of white wine. It seems like if the sun is out and it is warmish I am all over the white wine. other than that I am eating well. The fitbit is telling me what a slug I am. I really need to get my but moving.

    Last night the hubby had some beers, but I managed to have ZERO! But tonight, I'm going to dinner with my girlfriends...so there will be drinks. We're going to Texas Roadhouse, YUM! Trying to plan out my day so I won't be far too over my calories. Just having a protein shake for lunch...so that will keep me full!

    Tonight - hopefully just 1 or 2 drinks
    Wednesday - concert w/ friends...lots of drinks, I'm sure
    Thursday - prob 0
    Friday - maybe some wine or something
    Saturday - depends on my mood
    Sunday - LOTS and LOTS of wine...drowning my sorrows. LOL.

    On the back front, it's starting to feel a little better. Maybe I can hop on the elliptical this weekend...or at least walk on the treadmill?! Fingers crossed!

    Gloomy day here, got lots of cleaning done yesterday so today will be spent catching up on DVR'd shows with the pups. I will however tackle some more of the mountain of laundry that built up last week from the sick pup. I am happy to say though that she's better :bigsmile: She's eating again and holding it down. Takes her medicine in a piece of turkey so now every time I make a sandwich she thinks she's getting some meat haha.

    As for the booze, wine last night not sure about tonight, fiancé will be late again so probably some wine but we'll see. I will be putting in an hour on the bike at some point though :glasses:

    Kat, I'm glad your pup is taking her meds. When my kitty was sick, it was impossible to give him the meds he was supposed to take. I wish I had a dog because they are much easier to trick ;)

    Enjoy your DVR shows!! I think those days are the best...gloomy days are perfect to catch up on DVR'd shows!

    :yawn: Good Morning Lushes...Now, I remember what it's like to wake up refreshed. I should do it more often.


    Same here!! But on the other hand, didn't get to sleep for a very long time last night (early a.m.). I'm with ya Kblue on that one.

    Kat hope the pup is better. Hello to all the rest!

    So, Sunday 0, Monday 0. It sure feels like a whole week has gone by. :huh: Lost a lot of water weight. Just eating veggies, cottage cheese and eggs. Oh, and cream cheese and celery sticks. lol Eating my calories.
    Tonight will be zero again. I got to feel my energy come back.

    Have a great rest of the day my lushy peeps!

    June and July are the roughest months for me! I could spend every day off and every day after work on the river with a cooler full of beer, my dog and my fishing pole! :drinker:

    Yeah there's going to be wine tonight, I still need to get in my bike ride though.

    cat, my pup is much, much better thanks =]

    asjerven, yes I'm going with him =] it'll be great to sit in the sun and get away for a few days. We've been there before on a cruise and he goes every year for work. It's beautiful and because he goes for work so often he knows people there which is nice.

    Ok, girlfriend calls at 4:30 at says she's at happy hour....hubs comes home at 5:15 and cracks a bottle of wine because of his bad day...I hang out on a lush board on a diet website...I really need to stay stong

    Robin, Ron just told me that the job comes down between an enteral candidate and him. So, the bottom line is that the internal candidate will get the offer. She has a sweet gig working from home right now. We are hoping that she is happy with her sweet gig and declines. I'll keep you posted.

    Tues: 0

    If I can go to the ESPN zone on LA (full of restaurants/bars), sit through an entire Laker game surrounded by Hollywood types and still not drink (especially with how horrible the Lakers played), I can do anything!!

    Got home @ 1am. So tired.

    Thanks nisi and blue :smile: felt great after my ride. Started using my thermal tummy wrap again so the last 2 rides I've felt nice and slim after.

    I'm right there with ya on the lushness mama lush. I've had more than a bottle of wine each night. I haven't been eating a ton either, just don't have a huge appetite which seems weird since I've been doing double work outs.

    Anywho, I'm not sure if it's from the intense work outs and 700 cal a day burns or what but my body the last 2 days seems to have processed the booze better. Like I said both Monday and Tuesday I've had more than a bottle of wine with no dinner but no crazy hangovers. I'll take it!!

    I'll get in a bike ride at some point today but for now more DVR'd shows as it's yet another gloomy day here ... oh and more laundry :grumble: Not sure about wine tonight or what, it'll probably be another liquid dinner :tongue: This wine diet seems to be working though, as I'm feeling slimmer and there's a noticeable difference in my midsection so to that I :drinker: This will not be a long term thing though as I know it's not the healthiest but I'm eating healthy food and working out hard so for now I'm not too worried. It should be better after the wedding is over and I don't have to plan anymore.
