    I love a nice glass of wine, but I'm not having any and won't until I reach a reward point. then it's just one glass for me. :drinker:

    I feel you wakwifey. I LOVE wine too. How much water do you drink? I wonder if you don't lose b/c of hydration. I am losing well and I drink a glass almost every night. To be clear, 5 ounces 3-4 days a week. I do two hard workouts a week. I never have the energy to have a glass on those days. Trust me if I weren't dying after those workouts I'd have a glass 5-6 days a week.:drinker:

    Actually, when I dont drink m-th i do very well....and i have switched up my exercise....b/c i know i'll be having a few beverages fr/sat i try to do a high intensity workout fri/sat/sun....ususally a good 5 mile run/walk.....before all this long weekends (3 in a row) I was below 139 and ecstatic!

    But i do know i am in control and those lbs will be gone soon.....I''ve got a few more events this summer that will help keep me motivated....i've still got that bikini to wear....
