    Stressful day yesterday = 2 margaritas and 3 glasses of wine!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    So far things are pretty quiet and I am able to clean up all the things I haven't been able to get to today. Think boss is down at his boat (F#@&er) so hopefully I won't have to see his face today.

    Tonight after work we are going for a jog...the weather is just about perfect here today...84 and sunny. Tomorrow we are brewing our second batch of beer....Highland Hop Scotch Ale, which is a scotch ale...after secondary fermentation we are going to age 1/2 in apple brandy chips YUMMY :drinker: .
    This is one of the first weekends we've had in a quite a while that we don't have plans, so I am very excited...just me and my babe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :bigsmile:

    I joined you last night Kate...Lushy last night for sure....girlfriend came over and we shared a bottle of wine which disappeared way to fast...then, we moved on to vodka. I think 7 just might be an accurate number. Your beer sounds awesome.

    Monday, 3
    Tuesday, 0
    Wednesday, 0
    Thursday, 7
    Friday, 0
    Saturday, 0
    Sunday, ???

    I am going to try and stay at the 14 mark this week...I work 12 tomorrow and 12 on Sunday so I should be lush-free this weekend.

    Had the usual 5 each night this week. Last night (my Friday) I had Cuervo silver a friend gave me. Gawd, it was good. Too good. My head hurts a bit today. My friends are gone, left yesterday. I will miss them. This weekend should be a little more quieter
    than last week. I won't count on less alcohol .....I got to finish off the tequila tonight. LOL :wink:

    Have a good weekend all! :drinker: :drinker:

    Hanging out with mom and Gram today but I think I'll hold off on wine because the best friend texted me yesterday and said she needed a BFF day ASAP so we're grabbing dinner and drinks tonight :smile: Now it's time to get my butt in gear, eat something and then work out!

    Haaaaappppy Friday! :drinker: :bigsmile:

    I'm impressed Kat!
    I went for the vodka last night too...but after my 90 min workout yesterday and time in the sun..I was too tired to drink lol. So I actually threw my last one out (which never happens in this house)
    I went to bed early and feel good today. Another workout today and my usual shrimp taco friday with the husband tonight. Probably wine

    To be honest I am too SoCal haha. Three weeks ago I would have said I was the lushiest lush on the thread given the amount of wine consumed. I also would have scoffed at the idea of multiple 0's in a row but it's funny how the desire to really start shedding pounds kicks you in the *kitten* and gets you on top of things :smile:

    So this week so far:

    Monday - 0
    Tuesday - 0
    Wednesday - 0
    Thursday - 0
    Friday - 3 teeny glasses of wine with Mom and Gram, 3 tall bud lights with the best friend, 1 regular glass of wine at home.

    Best friend and I agreed we need to have BFF days instead of nights. We were already exhausted at 8:15 so when she dropped me off at home at 10:30 I was done. I can't stay out late anymore, though I already knew this haha.

    Going to lunch with husband in a bit so there will be wine and then maybe margs on the deck with my friend Eve :glasses:

    Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend :flowerforyou:

    That is a lot of 0s, Kat!

    I had a 0 last night-on a Friday!
    I slept well and feel good today. Going to the Rockies game, though so I will probably overdo it tonight!

    So, this week:
    Sunday=0 drinks
    Monday=3 beers
    Tuesday=3 beers and a Budarita
    Wednesday=0 drinks
    Thursday=glass white wine, 2 budlights
    Friday=0 drinks
    Saturday=probably three beers but they are 24 oz!

    Overall that's three 0s, not bad :drinker:

    Been reading but haven't been posting because I don't remember what I have been drinking because I haven't been logging because the website is malfunctioning and I can't get to any pages of my meals besides the 1st one and i have all my drink combinations listed as meals and I am too lazy to look up all the stuff in the database. If any of you followed what I said, you obviously have more room to drink.

    Ciao!

    Hi all, right in the middle of a 12, 8, 12, 8 hour shifts....then, off to Chicago for family and fun....only Nicholas is coming with me. My family is quickly dissipating before my very eyes.

    I am at 15 for the week - over by one. I think....

    Sunday is a bit embarrassing. :blushing:
    1/2 bottle of champagne
    2 double vodkas
    1 Sailor Jerry's
    1 double Aha Toro Anejo
    1 Hornsby
    4 glasses of white wine.

    I don't feel so hot today:sick: but I was clearing out all the alcohol so I can aim for zeros:bigsmile:

    Yesterday....4 margaritas (we opened and polished off the bottle) and 1/2 bottle of wine. I don't feel HORRIBLE today but I don't feel great either.
    We had a great weekend, it makes me so sad when I have to come back to work on monday morning :cry:

    I drank more days than not last week, but moderated well. I had quite a few drinks Thursday though (2 dirty martinis, 3 glasses of white, and a vodka drink) and then made up and only had 2 ciders Friday. Saturday had 2 drinks at late lunch, big glass of wine before my 5k, ran a 5k (Glow Run), had 2 tiny vodka drinks at the race after party I count as one, and then finished up with 2 glasses of wine in the hot tub after the 5k and after party. Yesterday I had a glass of wine, 2 (I think) beers, 2 vodkas, and bit of a Budarita, so ended up 24 for the week, double my "goal"..... :blushing: Still, proud that I didn't binge drink at all. Especially on Saturday which was kind of an all day drinking spree with a race in the middle. Tonight I may have a bit of wine. Then hopefully one or two 0's at some point.
