Robin, good luck at the drs! Hope you feel better soon, that's crazy!!! :flowerforyou:
Shelleben, this group is definitely addiciting, love these lushes!!!
Monday-Wednesday:0
Thursday-, 1 shot, 1 manhattan, 1 glass of wine
Friday-1 glass of white after work and then 1 glass of red while I watched tv. Pretty tame for me on a friday!!!
Tonight, I am having dinner with my family. I am hitching a ride with my parents and will most likely spend the night, but I will probably be fairly moderate. I am thinking 1 drink before dinner, 1 cocktail and 1 wine at dinner and MAYBE a glass of wine back at my parents. I plan on being in bed early and up early and maybe hit the gym before Len gets home!! He took my lush card with him this weekend
Have a great day everyone!!!

Seriously way too much wine last night. Opps!! I ended up knocking over the wine glass sampler tree thus breaking a glass and getting wine all over the bar. I was sad to see that beautiful wine to go down like that. Thank God Ron loves me the way I am, even in my drunkard ways. The bartender was really nice about it and refilled all the yummy glasses right back up.

Today, I'm supposed to go to girlfriend's house for wine and making girly homemade bath salts and lotions. I might behave since I drank my allotment for the week last night.
............................And, I officially have a sore throat
Robin, I am happy that you are going to see a doc.
Kate, I am glad that you are getting hubby and the lush card back soon!!
Shell, I agree that this is the best thread on MFP!!0 -
*sprays thread with lysol*
Glad you're going to the dr robin. And hope you aren't getting sick too, kim! Keep drinking wine...that should help :bigsmile:
Way to moderate katie!
I drank too much last night. Not sure how many cocktails I had. Don't feel too horrible today though because I did spend the evening drinking a lot of water before I crashed.
Maybe a glass of wine tonight but I don't think it'll be much more than that.0 -
*sprays thread with lysol*
^^^^that was funny^^^^
Good job with the water!! I wish I had done that.0 -
Sounds like the group is making the best of things what with illness, work stress and trying to be healthy.
Darla and I took a four mile walk in the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge today. It was a sunny day in the Pac NW so we felt we had to get out in it. The Refuge is in a tidal basin and sports lots of water fowl to see. Mt Rainier was out in all its splendor, if I ever figure out how to post pictures I will share.
With all the exercise I have some extra calories to take in today. I wonder how I will do that? :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:0 -
Hi Lushes.
Welcome Shelle!
Mama Lush - Sorry you are sick. Hope the doc prescribes you some good meds to ease your pain.
Kat - You have definitely gotten your share of snow and harsh weather this year! Don't know what people who don't drink do in weather situations like that. Maybe hot cocoa? Not as much fun though
Ryze - Sounds like you had a lovely day.
Syd - Thanks for disinfecting this thread. It seems much safer now :laugh:
Kim - Spilled wine is something to cry about, glad they refilled for you.
Katie - Four pounds ain't so bad.
Today I took my sweet puppy to his first puppy class. He was the most obnoxious, unruly puppy there. He was very stressed but my oh my! Who would have thought :bigsmile:
Friday - 1 glass wine ( a big one)
Saturday - 2 margaritas0 -
I thought I would try and see if I can paste a picture to this message board as I have seen others do it. This is a picture of me taken June 2011 when I was about 200 lbs. I had not yet found the wonder that is MFP or this great group. The picture was taken at the Yakima Military Training Grounds. The guy to the right was one of the men on my shift who was also in the Air Nat Guard. This was employer appreciation day. Note my big round (fat) face.

Here is a picture taken today at the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge. I am now 166 lbs. Note the not round (fat) face. Mt Rainier is to the right.

Noted...Gary's good-looking slim face....well done!!
Well, I was slightly lushy tonight at my giirlfriends house. We have a small group of girls get together and make homemade bath salts, sugar scrubs and we even have the skinceuticals formula for facial and eye cream. There was vodka involved of course. The wine really, and I mean really did not sound good at all.

Great pics, Gary! You like in such a beautiful part of the country. My husband would love to move up there but I'm a So Cal girl through and through.
Kim..fun night! And you moderated pretty well.
0 last night for me. I watched movies and crashed early.
We're heading to the brewery for a late lunch. I will indulge in yummy food but probably wont drink. Gotta get in a workout first.0 -
Thanks for the nice comments you guys are the best!0

Ok, my lushy friends...it's zeros from here until Saturday
Saturday is the 7K "Get Lucky" run at 9 in the morning. I am sure I will be drinking by noon, just depends on how quickly I move.
Sunday is SPD & my anniversary, 2 great reasons to celebrate with lick'er :drinker: :drinker:
Oh, btw, my son's birthday was this month. I am exactly twice his age :sad: so now, you know why I was working on those creams so hard last night. :bigsmile: I'll be ordering all the ingrediants once I figure it all out. The skinceuticals creams are about $100 in the store and we can make them way cheap. I'll share if anyone wants to give it a whirl.
Super sore throat but will go and infect everyone at yoga anyway. :blushing: The very thing I tell other people not to do.0 -
Gary haven't we had two of the most beautful days Friday and yesterday? I love living in this state. It is so freakin beautiful. I am up in Lake Stevens. about two hours north of you.
I have a confession. I felt better yesterday and my sore throat settled down so I didn't go to the doctor. *hangs head in shame* I felt so much better yesterday I even had a few vodkas. Tasted soooo good. I feel okay today. I keep reminding myself not to do too much and make myself tired. I have so much to do but I am trying to not do it. I am feeling like a bottle of red is on the menu today.
I hope you all have a great day.
PS Kim- Holly did the Polar Bear 5k and Plunge last weekend. I think she is crazy.0 -
That is crazy...but, she is young, carefree and ambious
I'll be in Minneapolis/St. Paul for SPD - there's a lot of friggin' Irish here so it should be fun. I miss Chicago because they turn the river green and have an awesome parade.0 -
Ryze- awesome work, you look fantastic!
Hope you feel better soon Mama Lush :flowerforyou: and I definitely hope things lighten up for you on the work front. I'm sure all that stress isn't good for the immune system :ohwell:
Wolf- hot cocoa might be good .... With amaretto hahaha my brain can't think of non lushes :laugh:
Lots of beer last night. Did our Saturday ritual at Wild Wings. We didn't go last weekend because husband was on his business trip. So yesterday when we went in the manager comes over and gave us a hard time about not being there the previous weekend. The bartender also gave us a hard time as well as yelled at us for not sitting at the bar. I said there weren't seats together and he said he would have made people move down for us haha. Yep, we're VIPs at Buffalo Wild Wings
Having some beer now while watching tv. Think I may shoot for some 0's this week.0 -
I lied. I had 2 vodkas at the brewery. I always feel so guilty not drinking beer when I go there. Lol
It's absolutely freakin gorgeous down here too Robin! I'm going to plant all my spring flowers this week and cant wait to get out in the yard and clean away the winter doldrums.0 -

Robin (right?) We really appreciate the nice days esp during the winter months which can be quite gloomy. Just had to get out in the sun- it was so nice. I have a former workmate who lives in Lake Stevens, its a real nice area.0 -
Kat- Thanks for the compliment!
Sydney- What part of SoCal are you? It would sure be nice to have more sunny days here like we had yesterday. Unfortunately its back to the rain now. And don't feel guilty about the vodkas at the brewery- you can just tell them you are trying to live a healthy lifestyle. 0 -
Gary, I'm about as So Cal as you can get.....in San Diego.
One of the reasons its so beautiful where you are is because of all the rain you get. But I get cranky with that much rain. I've got all the windows wide open here and the husband and I took the convertible out today when we went to the brewery. Immediate mood booster...even without the vodka. :happy:0 -
Gary - Very impressive picture! Great work.
Went to the outlet mall today with daughter and was looking forward to a margarita with lunch and lo and behold we were in a dry county :grumble: Georgia is so screwed up. Some counties you can buy on Sunday some you can't. Made one when I got home so all is well now :happy:
Sunday - 1 margarita and then some0 -

Thanks wolf! Dry counties suck. My wife and I stayed overnite in a dry town in Utah a few years back. Luckily I had a stash in the camper. They should have a sign up so us lushes can stay one step ahead of them.0 -
no booze no booze no booze!! i need me a nice stiff drink already! my day off cant come any sooner bleh0

Hey peeps. Lushy weekend for me. Friday I had 2 beers at lunch. Then probably 3 big glasses of white at dinner. After dinner I picked up champagne on the way home so I could test champagne cocktails for a party I was hosting the next day. I had about 3/4 bottle of champagne, so I'd say grand total of 7-8 Friday night. Although the 2 beers essentially fell off by dinner...... I had a 5k on Saturday morning and did just fine. Saturday I started drinking champagne cocktails at 3 and didn't go to bed till 3am. I managed to remember everything so I am actually really proud of myself. I probably had a bottle of champagne, 2 glasses of wine with dinner and at my brother in law's show I had a beer, 2 glasses of wine, and I think just one vanilla vodka and diet coke. Yesterday I had 2 pints of Blue Moon and a half a glass of red.
I'd like to say I'm doing 0's till Thursday night when my parents get here, but I may have a glass of wine sometime this week. Especially if the weather is nice. I have a bottle of sauvignon blanc in the fridge and a bottle of pinot noir on the counter.....0 -
Good Morning Lushes!!!
Wolf-love the pup.
Ryzeman-WOW you look great!
So, not a terribly lushed weekend, I mean I was drunk saturday but nothing outrageous!
Friday-2
Saturday-7 from 1pm to 10pm..not bad right HAHAHA!!!

Not sure what the week will hold for me as far as drinks, maybe some wine maybe not. We'll see
