    Congrats on the dry weekend everyone!!!!!

    Friday-2 shots of bourbon, 3 vodka and diet tonic and 2 glasses of wine. I was pretty trashed!!
    Saturday-3 beers before dinner, a manhattan and 1/2 a bottle of wine at dinner, then 3 beers after dinner. Seems like a lot but it was spread out over several several hours.
    Sunday-1 screw driver and 4 beers.
    Monday-thursday will be zeros...hopefully!

    Friday- half bottle of red
    Saturday- a couple very weak vodka and diet tonics and probably a bottle of red
    Sunday- a Sangria and a large coors light from Hooters

    This week definitely zeros Monday-Thursday!

    Kate & Chloe, looks like you guys had a fun weekend! :)

    I will hopefully make it Monday-Friday without booze, but Wednesday nights are kind of my hubby & I's date night and he always buys me my favorite wine so it's just sitting there when I get home. I told him I'm not wanting to drink so not to buy any, but he's forgetful. LOL. So, Wednesday I may have a glass or 2 of white wine, but that is it. I don't really have any desire to drink....you can really tell I don't feel good when that is the case!

    Well Sunday I had two beers- but had "0"s up to then. Grats to you who have done well and kudos to the rest of us who are moderating! :smile:

    Still lushing. Husband and I had lots at the bar during the day Saturday but I was still able to watch and enjoy my Packers with my new cheesehead :smile: . About to go log an hour on the bike, it'll be nice working out consistently again. We stocked up on lots of good eats so something healthy for dinner tonight and probably some wine.

    Zero last night, let's see if I can make it another tonight :laugh: It should be pretty easy we don't have any wine in the house...well except delicious port but I am making an effort atleast for the rest of the month to tone it down a bit!!!

    All 0's since last Friday! :smile:

    All I've have to drink during the days is water and lots and lots of tea!! I think I'm addicted to green tea! I'm drinking that instead of my coffee in the mornings. Still keeps me pretty peppy!!

    Yipee! I'm on day 8 as well. I've been detoxing/fasting so I feel so healthy drinking all my green crap that it sort of makes me not want to drink alcohol. Herbal tea is my friend. Herbal tea is my friend. And my break is near! Well a week away.

    So proud of you all staying strong and hanging in there :flowerforyou: You're all amazing!

    3 or 4 glasses of wine last night.

    Going to get another hour on the bike in today, probably sooner than later. Had a scrumptious healthy lunch of homemade kitchen sink salad, a mini ham sandwich with grey poupon mustard and lettuce with a few chips on the side. Got back into having lots of water too which is made all the more easy by the convenient water dispenser on our fridge.

    Took all the Christmas decorations down yesterday and even though it's not Spring I'm getting some "Spring cleaning" done each day. Freshened up the table scape on our dining room table, tall taper candles along with 2 big vases of pretty and pretty smelling flowers. Need to get some laundry done and do the kitty boxes.

    Not sure about drinks tonight, we put our old fridge downstairs and it's primarily for beer and wine now so there will always be lots of booze in the house. I'm focusing on the losing weight the healthy way now as opposed to working out like mad before the wedding. I want a routine I can stick with the weight will actually stay off and for this lush that includes boozy beverages haha.

    Happy Tuesday all, good luck to those doing a no booze January and cheers to my fellow lushes who like me are balancing things out :wink:

    I am really impressed by you guys. You are doing great. I am doing my own moderating thing but not having a drink until it is almost bed time. It really relaxes me so I can go to bed so early. (I aim for 8:00-8:30 most nights) I had another 15000 step day yesterday!
