I'm really impressed with these 0 days you guys are racking up. I haven't had a zero day in a couple of weeks.

I have a doctor's appt this week that I'm really nervous about because of some weird health problems that have just started happening. One would think this would prompt me to be doing healthier things, but, um, no. I drink more when I'm stressed and this is stressing me out.

Plus, I'm one of those people who gets on WebMD and convinces myself I have all sorts of terrible diseases (like cirrohsis.) I know, I probably sound like a nut. I have a phobia of doctors and always have.

Also, is everyone here really honest with the docs when they ask about alcohol use and smoking? I can't really bring myself to admit how much of both I really do (although I have made a lot of progress on cutting down the cigs... :embarassed:

Just wondering...

That's what I worry about too, the judgements. I know I shouldn't but it makes it hard to be honest. I'm afraid the doc will tell me I just need a good shrink or something! Ugh, I'm so sorry you had to deal with that, what a jerk that dr. was to you.

I just started seeing a chiropractor as well. He was much easier to be honest with, and made me feel comfortable (well the adjustment was not so comfortable, but I could tell he was working some places that I needed to have worked!)

By the way, your dogs are precious!!

We screen admissions in the hospital for substance abuse and typically double the number they give us. Some nurses freak out if they hear that they have 2 a night and put them on alcohol withdrawl protocol. I laugh at them and tell them that I drink more than that.

Anyway, I am ready for zeros...danced and drank a bunch last night...so, I think I will shoot for severe moderation and zeros before I leave for Chicago in 2 weeks.

Today, I clean, do laundry and watch football.

Listened to my body and took today as another rest day. My legs are killing me and have been sore for a couple weeks now. We have gotten most of the wedding forms done today so we're in good shape. I had champagne earlier and now mixed drinks but spaced out and watching football Sort of a nice lazy Sunday, back to the double work outs tomorrow though as my second and final dress fitting is this coming Saturday :bigsmile:

OH! We ordered our wedding bands and they should both be here by the end of the week!!!!!!!! Cannot wait to see them! They aren't matching and they're both different from the norm Also ordered our Swarovski toasting flutes that my mom will pay us back for because she wanted that to be her gift to us :flowerforyou:

As for yesterday we went out to lunch and had some drinks and I came home and just got in bed. So I had one meal, a few beers and was in bed SUPER EARLY. Napped a bit then was up on and off through the night but woke up feeling great I'm looking forward to bed tonight and definitely looking forward to my work outs tomorrow!

Happy Sunday my lovely lushes :drinker:

Nice work, mama lush!

Too many drinks to count yesterday. None today but waaayyyy over in calories due to hangover eating. Hell, I had red velvet cake for breakfast and it just kept going from there. :glasses:

Fresh start tomorrow.

Very nice work on the run and doghouse. Did you photoshop them in the window or are they forever in that pose? Very cute either way.

Sid - I have had days like that. You will get through this. Red velvet cake lushiness is almost as good as alcohol lushiness

Last night - 1 glass of cab
Sunday - 1 margarita

Just gave Callie a bath, she loves them...so strange. She particularly loves to be towel dried, she slumps to the floor in heavenly bliss, so cute. Other than that though she is 100% mischief and puppy antics. She has destroyed two remotes along with a bunch of other stuff like flip flops, tennis shoes, socks, phone cases,. The good news is my house is less cluttery I am thinking one more year before she grows out of this.

More wine than I can even begin to count all three nights (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) but I'm going to try for some zeroes this week!

Wine is my downfall. I Just love it!

That doghouse and run is amazing! And your Lushlings are so cute. My little lushlings are locked up in the guest bathroom today because my upstairs neighbors plumbing backed up yesterday morning and flooded my bathroom, bedroom and part of the kitchen. It was a delightful way to start and spend the day....

I hadn't intended to have any wine last night, however :drinker:

Nice work on the dog run, Mama Lush, is there a space for Doug as needed.

Sunday, 0
Monday, 0

I'm shotting for some zeros this week and very controlled moderation. I am sure by Wednesday, the liquor devil will be wispering in my ear. I'll be working my long weekend hours; so, I might have a decent number.

I'll be in Chicago soon to celebrate my Dad's 70th birthday party. I can't believe that he's 70 and time flies so fast.

Pole dancing tonight, just when the bruises started to disappear.

Nice job on that pup house/run Mama Lush!!

The very soon to be husband (20 days!) is home sick today so he's tucked up in bed. This means I finally am getting the laundry done haha and other house work that won't bother him. Once he comes downstairs to the couch then I can work out =]

Took the last two days off of work outs because my legs were just killing me and they are thanking me today. Had champagne and mixed drinks all yesterday while we filled out the wedding forms and watched football, spread out though so I feel great today

This week is just full of wedding stuff, forms have to be sent to the manor tomorrow, Kyle's wedding band is coming tomorrow, mine should be here by Friday and I am dying to see it and then I go for my 2nd and final dress fitting this Saturday! Now that we had a conference call with the manor and had some relief over the forms I'm not stressed and just super excited :bigsmile:

With that said I'm not sure what the week holds for drinks, we'll see if I feel like it or not :drinker:

Boozy weekend :ohwell:

Friday - bottle of champagne
Saturday - bottle of red
Sunday - a day of drinking. Bloody Mary, beer, beer and more beer

I did work out 6 of the 7 days last week. Success! Shooting for zeros until Friday. My daughter and I are leaving town with my sister and her kids. Heading to my parents vacation home in central Oregon for some fun in the sun. Leaving the husbands behind!

Sounds like everyone had a nice weekend. Now on to the next one!
