Day 15 and halfway thru....tomorrow is official weigh-in day and I will see some good results I hope.
Ditto. We rock.
My official weigh in day is Thursday, but I am having my cheat day (for drinking and eating) on Wednesday, so I think I'll weigh tomorrow as well. I need to do a litle damage control today for yesterday....so I'm not expecting anything fantastic, but had a nice loss last week.
Mmmm....homemade Kahlua..... Oh, and Kate, yum chocolate covered pretzel martini. How does one make that?
I'm excited about my wine tomorrow. I do hope to drink moderately. I need a plan. I'm thinking split a bottle of wine at dinner and 2-3 drinks at the show. If we can even drink at this venue. It's a fancy sit down theater so who knows..... My husband and I both have the next day off, so maybe a night cap when we get home. I'm keeping it to 6 or less. After 6, everything goes down hill......0 -

Oddly enough, its whipped vodka and frangelico (2 to 1) with a salted rim. Quite tasty!0 -
Last night was 2 glasses of red. Try for 0 tonight, since I'll have margs tomorrow. even drinking every other day is better than some months I've had.0

Ashley, I am jealous of your evening but it is well-deserved after our dry spell. I am excited to hear if you're a cheap date :bigsmile:
I am counting down to SaTuRdAy...:drinker:0 -
Way too much wine was had last night with my girl :sick: I'm going to New York with her for her birthday this weekend so I'm sure there will be just as much had this weekend.
Maybe I'll get some 0's sometime this year

Gosh have I really not posted in here yet this month, I remember reading some of the posts at the beginning of the month.
Well done to the abstainers. I decided to opt for a sort of moderation in January. I finally got my taste for alcohol back and I had loads of drink left over from Christmas and it needed drinking. Anyway there's more days that I haven't had alcohol than I have, so that's moderation in my book. Plus I still don't seem to have fully recovered from my abstinence as drink goes to my head really quickly.
I'm going to have to clean up my act a bit soon, I'm baking more sugary treats, and of course eating them, so I'm looking a bit too 'fluffy' round the middle.0 -
Hi Yvonne...Happy late lushing
Ok, I've created the ultimine sin of this thread. :noway: I opened a beer to make the patty melt gravy and have to throw 1/2 the bottle away. :sad:0 -

I hate wasting anything; especially alcohol. :ohwell:
I'm excited about tonight. I'm excited to drink, but not as much as I thought I'd be. What do they say, it takes two weeks to form a habit? Not that I'm not going to drink in February.....but maybe my outlook will have chnaged. Hopefully. So 15.5 days alcohol free for me!!! Then I'll have another couple dry days, then a 6 day run to end finish it out. Yay.0 -
Have a great time tonight Ashley!!

Ashley- Have fun tonight! I do find when I cut back on drinking the less I want it also.0 -
Yay, Ashley, go have some fun with hubs and a day off. I agree with your sentiments on the not really wanting it as much as I used to. However, I am sure that it can be easily fixed.0

I decided to have vodka for dinner. Yesterday was just hellish and I needed it. Some of you are doing so well with abstaining. I just can't seem to do it. Oh well. have a great day.!0

Neither can I but I look at it as we're simply upholding the name of our lovely thread =]
Husband gets back late tonight and might be coming to New York this weekend I can't wait to snuggle him 
Having some wine now and I think I'd really like to try for some 0's next week ... famous last words :huh:0 -
Went to this "transformation" thing tonight where you work on a dream board - then, some kind of group therapy stuff. Interesting, but not really sure what I am going to get out of it for the next 3 months.
Wine was abundant to loosen people up...............but....................I abstained, and really didn't feel like I missed out
51.6% of the way done and it's all downhill now!!0 -
WOW Kim! Way to go! You are going fabulous!!!

Ashley, are you awake? Tell us about your hangover... 0

Kim, I bow down to your will power. I am totally impressed.
I had a bottle of red last night. I may be good tonight because the boss is off at an off site all day. :happy: So I won't be all wound up when I get home.
The roughest part for me is when I sit down to watch some TV right before bed. I just want a drink or 3 while I veg in front of the TV. :ohwell:
Have a great day all.0 -
