Lushy, lushy weekend. Going for 0's until Friday or Saturday but the animals are already making me want a drink tonight :noway: so many messes. Spending the day cleaning and doing laundry and a work out at some point.
Husband is back to normal schedule so we'll be cooking dinner together tonight =}0 -
Sounds like a few of you had a busy weekend...wtg lushes!! :drinker:
2 more glasses of red wine last night as predicted. So from Friday to Sunday a total of 4 glasses of wine. The scale is rewarding me. I'm motivated to keep up with this moderation...I really want to break a #s barrier I've had for so long and I'm *this* close!!
So maybe another glass of red tonite, depending on how much exercise I get in today.
Here's to a great week for everyone!

The salted caramel vodka is seriously ridiculous. We mixed with chocolate vodka for martinis topped with some shaved chocolate, HOLY CRAP!!!
I am drooling...
Ditto.
So I did have a bottle of red last night and then a few shots of this chocolate wine I bought in Oregon. it is very Bailey's like so I can only handle so much since it is so sweet and creamy.
I may try for a few zeros this week. I am not sure right now.
Happy lushing.0 -
Hi All!
I'm pretty new here and haven't posted anything other than a brief intro. I had a good week last M-Th and then had half a bottle of red wine Friday, a beer and half a bottle of white wine Saturday managed to abstain on Sunday, only because my food was horrible! My goal this week is to score zeros until Saturday and then enjoy 2 glasses of white wine which I will EARN with an awesome workout.
We'll see how it goes!

Ello everyone!
I ended up having wine last night. I am working from home today because I had a late ortho appt and Lenny (my husband) and his coworker stopped home with swap work vehicles so we had a beer together...this means I will def behaving something else when he gets home

Husband and I ended up having a mini beer tasting last night haha and I'm sure there will be drinks tonight. Oh well, I'll get my work out in and food has been healthy and I'm still feeling slim so I'm not too worried =}
Have some more cleaning to do and a work out and then I'm looking forward to relaxing with the pups on this dreary day.0 -
OMG dropping in here is like alcohol porn to me right now, apricot ale....salted caramel vodka....
Anyway, day 13 and still no alcohol. I'm not sure if its harder this time because I was drinking more in October than I usually do and it had become more of a habit, or if its because I've given up sugary treats as well. Normally I see my chocolate consumption go up as my alcohol consumption comes down, so I guess that must be part of it.0 -

Salted caramel vodka...what?? That sounds amazing!
I'm currently drinking a raspberry vodka and red bull...but I'm heading to the gym after the kids to go bed, so I can't get too crazy.0 -
I ended up having some wine last night, ok ok LOTS of wine. I was in so much pain after I got the cortisone shot in my knee. I was going to take a vicodine but went with liquid therapy instead
Pain is better today, knee still doesn't feel as good as it did yesterday morning before the shot but I'll take it!
Len is traveling for the next couple of days so wine will be in my future!0 -
Kate- so sorry you are in pain!

Tonight we are going out for my aunt's bday, I will probably have a couple drinks. Not sure what I am in the mood for yet though.0 -
vodka last night. a medium for me amount. I walked a lot at work yesterday so I didn't have to dreadmill it. (I have made a commitment that if I don't have 10,000 steps by the time I get home I have to dreadmill for an hour.)
Yvonne, you are doing so great!!!!!
Kate, I hope your knee is feeling better.
To all the happy lushes out there, keep on lushing!:drinker:0 -
I can't believe it is Nov. 14 and I am just now checking in with this thread!
I have been plenty lushy, don't worry! But nothing too exotic, wine and beer mostly. My friend likes apple cider and tuaca-have y'all tried that one?
Going to LA then Disney next week for Thanksgiving. I guess we won't be drinking all that much, I heard there isn't much in the way of alcohol at Disney! and they call it the happiest place on earth...0 -
Disney is no longer dry and did recently add beer and wine to one of their restaurants. but I'm sure you pay a boatload for it..and it won't be enough to survive the horrible crowds and noise (can you tell I'm not a fan lol?) Everyone needs to experience it at least once..but when you live so close and have been there more times than you can count..it loses it's shiny funness! Going with young kids who see the wonder of it all sure helps though.
Still moderating here. Syd is being quite boring.0 -
Yvonne awesome job!
Kate hope you feel better soon =}
3 glasses of wine last night and currently having one now =]0 -
Thanks for the encourament, although I've been moaning that its tough I'm finally starting to feel benefit of cutting out the crap this month. Someone left a pack of donuts next to me at work today and tried to tempt me but I resisted, however if it had been one of those chocolate salted caramel martinins kblue is talking about I think it would've been a lot tougher! They really do sound too good to be legal!0

Alcohol porn....:laugh: :laugh: That phrase just cracks me up! I'm so boring with my drinking and ya'll are so adventurous...I usually stick with Pinot Grigio or Bacardi & diet...maybe I need to branch out a bit....salted caramel vodka does sound delicious!
It was great to read everyone's mushiness - its nice to know there are other couples out there like my guy & I...we never take each other and our relationship for granted because we've seen the OTHER side and it's ugly. Both of us were in bad marriages so we know how important our relationship is
He's not only my best friend, my confidant but he's my rock too...my daughter was in the hospital for 5 days last week and he was pivotal in getting me through it (she's doing much better now:happy: )
Yvonne - AWESOME job not drinking! I'm so impressed!
Syd- SNAP OUT OF IT!! Lol :laugh: It seems wrong that you're not being lushy - you introduced me to the world of Like Minded lushes!0 -
Yvonne-wtg avoiding donuts....*kitten* trying to tempt you, you are a rock star!!!!!!
amcanzo-sorry about your daughter and glad to hear she is doing better!!!!
My knee feels great today. I don't wanna jinx anything! When I left work last night it was alittle achy. Lets hope for a better day today. This process of recovery seems like it is taking WAY too long for my liking. I frozen my gym membership for the time being and I'm just doing some strength at home. I go back for another follow up in 3wks and I should be fine to get back to it by then, fingers crossed peeps!!!!
Last night wine and lots of it...14oz of so....and chocolate. I was slightly over caloreis for the day and have been several times a week but for the most part I am still at a slight deficit and hopefully this doesn't affect my weight too much. I refuse to weigh in until I am back in full action for atleast 1mth...why do the holidays have to be so close!!!!
I will be having wine again tonight, no doubt!0 -
Monday-0

Wednesday- glass of red at my moms before going to the restaurant, a captain and diet before dinner, 2 miller lites with the pizza and 1 amstel lite at the bar after
Shooting for a zero tonight, although I am not sure what the plan is, we may be going to a friends house for dinner. Tomorrow we are going to start pulling out Christmas decs, so I am sure I will have some wine or maybe hot chocolate and baileys while doing that. No plans for the weekend yet, so we will see!0
