I'm a newbie to MFP and live near Boulder, CO, one of the best places to get a good craft beer. (Which I looove!) Today after getting home from work I called my boyfriend to see when he would be home only to find out that he was out with a friend having a beer. Normally I would take this as an invitation and go meet up with them to enjoy one (or three) myself. Today, however, without a second thought I said "Ok, have a great time. I'm going to go work out." Of course I'm not saying I will never have another one because that just wouldn't be realistic! But, I am super proud of my choice today :)

    I never have more than two even though I have to admit that Pumpkin head from Shipyard Brewery here in Maine is my weakness.

    I realize it's not the best place to use my calories but at 180 a bottle I am willing to compensate elsewhere for one or two nights a month that I may have a couple.

    That's fantastic. I'm so happy for you! Mine for yesterday was I did 35 min on the elliptical and 30 on the treadmill and I could have kept going!! I probably should have but it was the first time I didn't want to just hurry up and get done!
