This weekend will probably be lushy as well, 3 events tomorrow night alone...What's a girl to do? Meeting the family at a waterpark next Friday and Saturday....Ohhh, so not good.0 -
This week is just a huge fail for me, I don't know what is going on with me this week! Every night I'm just like screw it its the holidays! Had wine and chocolate last night!
Monday- 0
Tuesday- 15 oz red
Wednesday- small glass of red and about 5 miller lites
Thursday- 10 oz red
Tonight probably something, not sure what yet. Tomorrow we have a big family Christmas party at our house. I always get pretty sloshed at our parties. We have a wedding next Saturday though, and I am hoping to look hot, so I am going to do a detox next week Monday-Friday to get myself back on track.0 -
I've actually done pretty well this week.
0's on Sunday and Monday.
Tuesday 3 glasses or red.
Wednesday just half a bottle (= 2 by my pour).
Last night 3 glasses at the party and my husband and I drank 2 bottles, so 7 I guess. Rough today.
This weekend we don't have any plans other than getting the tree up tonight so I see staying in, eating in, drinking minimally and wathcing movies in my future. And probably some workouts. Next week is party extravagaza.
Chloe I love you blatant honesty, " I always get pretty sloshed at our parties. We have a wedding next Saturday though, and I am hoping to look hot..."
Sounds like my thoughts..... 0 -
My profile is a throwback as well. Only 15 years and about 30 pounds need to be removed for me to look like that again.
Kat your ring is beautiful and your bedroom set is wonderful.
Welcome!
very lusy lately. Last night we ran out of vodka so DH was drinking beer and I was cleaning out all the bottles of alcohol that had less than a shot left in them. at least my liquor cupboard got cleaned up a bit :laugh:
Have a lushy Friday all.0 -
I love that picture of you Robin!!!!!!!!!!
I had 3oz of caramel vodka and LOTS of wine!!!
Tonight, a manhattan or two, maybe1
Tomorrow was supposed to be our 2nd annual family pierogi party BUT it got cancelled due to some unfortunate events, so Len and I are going to attempt them by ourselves with martinis OF COURSE!!!!!!!!!!!! Then he leaves Sunday for the week for training BOO!!! I will TRY to not drink while he's away :laugh:
I got fitted for a crossover brace for my knee today and I am very excited to get it. My knee is stable but weak so hopefully this brace will give my confidence to get back to it. I should have it by wednesday at the latest and I will attempt yoga with it...very exciting!!! I decided to keep my gym membership frozen until Jan, so I will just continue to do my thing at home!!
Happy friday everyone!!!

Kblue - let us know how your pierogies come out, I always buy the frozen ones.
Robin - Love the picture.
Cheers all...it's Friday!!!!0 -
I had 3 glasses last night. More than usual but it was so good and I was listening to awesome music while cooking so I got carried away. I will probably have cocktails tonight. Its Friday after all and its my lushy responsibility. I have plenty to get done first though and its almost noon and have done none of it. :ohwell:0
-
I had three glasses of red wine, but they were small glasses!
Party tonight and tomorrow...0 -
Kat, love your ring
Mcel, welcome
I seem to be in the holiday mood too can't wait until my kids finish school for Christmas, but very strangely I don't want to drink tonight, I must be ill!0 -

I took care of a guy today with nectrotizing pancreatitis. 1/3 of his pancreas is gone d/t drinking. Now, I am picturing how mine is breaking down into chunks.
Hope everyone has a rockin' time at their parties.0 -
Husband is currently in the air on his way to London. I have had the worst dreams about planes and cruise ships recently and just hate when he has to leave for business anyway so it's kind of a sucky Saturday or rather Sunday. He should be landing around 3:30am my time and given that it's almost 1am I may just stay awake, though I do have my alarm set.
Thank you Yvonne =]
We stopped at the packy before coming home earlier so I've got plenty of liquids for the next few days while husband is away haha. Sadly it's the only way I'll be able to fall asleep while he's gone, I have 2 bottles of wine in our mini fridge in our bedroom as well as some beer and our britta. Have a box of wine downstairs and 2 bottles of vodka, one cake vodka (which I love with my flavored fizzy water) and vanilla vodka (which I love with my coke zero). Think I'm set until he comes home
Next weekend I'm treating my girls to a girls weekend at the casino. We're getting a room and just going to have a good time without our guys. The guys are going to do something of their own. I'm looking forward to it even though all of our get togethers/parties make the holidays go by like whoa. I love having our Christmas party and then having our New Years party because I love having our house full of family both born with and those we choose for ourselves
Should be an amazing end of the year/start of a new year 0 -
Aww Kat, your husband will be back safe before you know it0
-
Oh, Kat...ditto Yvonne. He'll be home soon!! Your girl's trip sounds super fun, however.
Oy. Last night was our work party--it's at a fellow teacher's house and she always has a well-stocked bar. I brought 2 nummy appetizers, these mayo/swiss/green onion/cocktail rye things and a buffalo chicken dip and there's always a ton of food. I zig-zag my calories, so I "saved" by 1811 day for yesterday, ate just a bit throughout the day, put on my HRM while I did 20 minutes of cleaning and 10 minutes of yoga for a total of 80 minutes, and arrived at the party with 1300 calories to spare.
I only ate about 400 of them. :drinker:0 -
Sat - 5 beers0
-
Sounds well planned and fun, Dot. Every teacher I know is a crazy partier. :drinker:
0 last night but I had chinese food and feel like crap today. Gotta get moving.0 -
You're right ladies =]
Sounds like a fun time Dot!!
Chinese is delicious at the time but always makes me feel like garbage the next day too :sick:
Fur babes and I are spending the day in bed watching TV and being lazy. It's the perfect day for it too, gloomy outside :indifferent:
Hope everyone has a lovely Sunday :flowerforyou:0 -
Monday, 5.3'ish beers
Tuesday, bottle and flight of 3, 6'ish
Wednesday, 0
Thursday, 2-24 oz beers = 4
Friday, 7 vodka/sodas (I think it was really 6 but I'm not sure)
Saturday, 0.75 winter lager
Total: 22.3
Felt guilt over the total for this week and decided not finish the two I logged last night. However, today might be a couple. The snow has got to be 8 inches by now and it's not letting up.
Kat, could be worse...he could be going to Afghanistan, England sounds like of posh...I was an Army wife for many years so I have a much different view. Just count down the days.
Dot, glad the teachers were able to let loose. When you zigzag do you change it everyday? I was going to do that but it seems like a lot of work. Are you getting the results you want?0 -
So my two weeks of abstaining is an epic failure. Oh well...life goes on!
Got my tree from Costco last night. I wanted a skinny tree because it has to be elevated (dog) and fit into a tight corner. It looked skinny when we got it all tied up but when we released it...POOF! Much wider than anticipated. I will make it work. Wine helps! I will decorate for a bit and drink wine for a bit. Makes the whole process easier. Can't believe the weekend is almost over! Enjoy what is left!
Cheers!0 -

My cousin who's more of a brother only just got out of the military recently. He did multiple stints over seas and it killed me knowing he was over there in danger. It's not the being over there that freaks me out, it's just when my husband is in the air. I'm terrified of flying and have the worst time with it and it's getting worse. I have the worst dreams about planes so when he has to fly I just freak out until I know he's landed and safe.0 -

LOL we are getting ours tomorrow and I just *know* the kitten is going to go ape *kitten* with it. Fun times.0 -
I redeemed myself Friday from Thursday and had a 0. Not sure when I did that on a weekend last was..... Saturday we put our tree up and my husband poured himself a glass of red around 10:30 am so naturally I did as well. We kind of just drank all day - had a couple drinks at lunch, then finished that bottle of red and opened a second during a movie and then had 2 at dinner. Considering I drank for nearly 12 hours, I think I did well. I had about 7-8 drinks all day. I actually was able to take little breaks, have some water and just maintain a nice mellow buzz. Last night I had about 3 small glasses of red at the family party. So I think a success for me over the weekend! Tonight is 0 because i have parties Tuesday - Friday.0
-
Friday we had a couple manhattans and relaxed on the couch.
Saturday-a couple beers, some martinis while making pierogis. Wolf-they got made. I make no promises how they will taste or if they stay together but *kitten* it got done! A friend we haven't seen for a while called so we went out for a few drinks that night.
Sunday-I naturally felt like *kitten*. So I napped then meet my parents for dinner.
Kat-my Lenny is away for work too. He gets home friday,. Its going to be a long week. I am all stocked up on wine and vodka too :laugh:0 -
I need to get myself under control, the drinking has gotten majorly out of hand.
Here is last week:
Monday-0
Tuesday-wine
Wednesday-beer
Thursday-wine
Friday-wine
Saturday- beer, gin and diet tonic, wine
Sunday-bloody marys, wine, beer, baileys
Just ridiculous and I feel like a puffy bloated mess today. I am not, I repeat not drinking until this wedding I have Saturday! and then I will probably have something Sunday during football. But then I will have at least 5 zeros the next week also. Plus I am starting TurboFire today and logging again, not waiting until Jan 1.0 -
Well, I don't know how many zeros I can get this week. I got two last week, would like to get two again but I ended up having 3 beers yesterday.
It seems like I drank a lot on Friday (beer) but I didn't feel bad on Saturday and Saturday I drank quite a bit (wine), but I didn't feel bad on Sunday.
I will probably drink tonight and tomorrow, maybe Wed and Thursay is husband's office Christmas Party, then it's friday again, darn, no 0s for me this week, I guess...0 -
It's hard to moderate with all the holiday parties. You lushes are keeping busy :laugh:
I had a mellow weekend. Watched the boat parade of lights on San Diego bay...so pretty with all the lights reflecting on the water. Had a flask of whiskey to keep warm...but didn't drink much.
Tree tonight. Some red wine maybe?
Countdown til the son gets home on Thursday. :drinker:0 -
Sun - 6 beers......................................they were good.0
