    Some people say they run-for-beer as a punchline. I say it, like, serious.................!

    Too much last night. Going out with the in laws tonight so it'll be a mellow evening and probably early to bed.

    Day 3 still alcohol free :smile: I weighed myself this morning and I put on weight in the last month, it must have been all the extra drinking I did in preparation for going alcohol free! :laugh:

    Yvonne - Nice work on those 0's

    Friday - After my Kahlua in my coffee I had a shot of vanilla rum
    Saturday - 2 Bloody Marys ( that picture Mama Lush posted must had talked to my sub-conscience) 2 glasses wine
    Sunday - 0

    I have been craving sugar like crazy this past week. Bought a bunch of fruit this weekend so I am at least going to try to keep it natural instead of candy and tiramisu! The sugar in the alcohol is okay though ;)

    A pumpkin beer with a double vanilla shot last night.

    Right now, I'm drinking a Sunshine Wheat.

    Kept it low key yesterday and was up bright and early this morning :smile: It's a very cool,crisp fall morning here without a cloud in the sky. So I'm currently simmering some homemade potpourri on the stove which has the house smelling of yummy spices, listening to Seriously Sinatra on Sirius XM and relaxing for a bit before doing laundry and vacuuming. Already took the Halloween decorations down and our house feels so bare now haha.

    Husband is getting some work done and then we'll get some food and he'll head back to our home office to work while I do the housework.

    Might have some wine tonight but I think I'd like to strive for 0's during the week again, unless the husband wants some beer or something. Not because of weight because I'm still fine on that point but I definitely feel less puffy when I cut down but weekends and special occasions are fair game :drinker:

    Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday :smile:

    Sounds like a good day, Kat.

    Ugh, I have lush-related drama going on in my neighborhood. I'll spill when I'm on a computer. In related news, after my beer, I had 3 double red bull-vodkas...with cherry. Miraculously, I don't feel like *kitten*, but that's most likely due to the fact that I was up until 3. (or 2, really, because of lame-*kitten* DST)

    Yesterday got really fuzzy aroun 4:00. before that I had some champagne, some red wine, some appletinis. Managed to cook a dinner and get all my clothes planned out for the week. But as I said it is a little fuzzy.

    It is time to get back to it. I am setting up a hiking training plan on the dreadmill. I need to move my butt.

    Sun - trashed, probably 6-8 glasses of red
    Mon - 0
    Tues - 7oz white
    Wed - 3 glasses of wine, 3 sips of 312 urban wheat
    Thurs - the rest of that 312, 1oz kettle one with splash of water and limes
    Friday - 2 glasses of white, 1 red, a dirty martini
    Saturday - 1.5 bottles of red

    24ish. If I keep it under 20 for the week, I consider that a victory. So I was close. I drank too much Saturday but drank moderately throughout hte rest of the week so that's good. Nothing last night. We don't have any wine, but a crap load of beer still. My husband is going to Lexington for the KY baseketball game tonight so it's just the baby, me and a Lifetime movie. If I had wine, I would drink it. But I don't so probably a 0 tonight.

    I need to move my butt.

    Move it girl, move it...put a glass of vodka in front of the dreadmill and hike to it :wink:

    Right now, I am pretending that I really want to go to the gym...:ohwell:

    Work from 3 to 11 and requested off, but there are no guarantees. I really need to plan out some meals and get this house organized. I worked all weekend and it shows because there is rubble lying everywhere. :angry:

    Hi All -

    Hope everyone is having a great November so far. My Sober October idea lasted about a week and a half and then was one of my lushier months on record. This month is my birthday, best friend's birthday, and family time so I can already tell you this won't be any better.

    I may just have to try to rethink the idea in January. :)

    Beer and wine yesterday.

    I've got warm soup belly and now it's time for housewife duties and then a work out.

    Going for 0's until Friday, we'll see how this goes haha.

    Quiet lushes tonight.

    I cleaned all day then worked out and would love to have a drink and bum around on the couch. Husband still isn't home and we haven't gone grocery shopping since losing everything to the storm so there isn't much in the line of ingredients for an actual dinner.

    We'll see what happens.

    Yeah, you read that correctly. Thought about some honey liquor in my tea but didn't.

    Today, more housewife duties and a work out as well as shooting for another 0.

    Monday-10oz of wine....I had a ton of calories so.....:huh:
    Tuesday-probably some wine

    I'm not really shooting for zeros this week, it all depends on calories left for the day....not including workout calories...trying to avoid eating them this week.

    There's one problem for me with not counting calories .... I always have them for boozy beverages :wink:
