    what about some grilled vegtables? Zuichini and squash sliced and brushed with a little olive oil?

    Have fun!

    Looks like we're doing pretty well!

    Tuesday - 0

    Tonight is my one year anniversary of dating my bf so there will likely be wine consumed and tomorrow there will be plentiful booze as well, I'm sure! I am going to try to take it easy tonight so that I am not hungover and can work out on Saturday (unheard of, I know).
    congrats on your one-year anniversary! I bet this is right around the anniversary of meeting my husband in 2003

    And now here comes Friday. It's not afternoon yet, but I am thinking about what I am going to do when we are hanging out with friends tonight. I am thinking I will only bring 2 or 3 beers there, so I can only drink that, but then I will kick myself in the butt because I will want more once those are gone. Ugh, what to do.... I just have to remember I do not want to blow all my hard work from this week! And weigh in is Sunday.

    Thank you! It's a good time of year for those sorts of things :) We had actually known each other for ages (like since grade school) but didn't date until I came back from college. Funny how those things work out!

    I blew it! I had a tall vodka/soda with lime last night and I think I had 3 double shots of whiskey!:drinker: I didn't eat dinner though so I still stayed within calories. My husband decided we are having a bbq tomorrow so I'm sure i'll end up a little lushy then too:ohwell: . I think i'm gonna make bbq'd beer can chicken. I've never tried it before but it sounds like it'd be fun to do not to mention way healthier than some of the other bbq options. Now I got to come up with some good sides:wink:

    potato salad, pasta salad, ohh, and potato chips dipped in french onion dip...all make great sides
    Aren't you funny Kim! I did find that french onion dip mix (the powdered stuff) can be used with greek yogurt and tastes really good though and cuts the calories big time:wink:

    Debbie, I will have fresh veggies with hummas or maybe the yogurt dip but I was thinking grilled asparagus or corn on the cob and maybe fruit salad... I'm getting into the 150's I swear!

    My husband and I meet in high school, dated a few months and then didn't see each other for 5 1/2yrs, got back together through mutual friend and have been together for 10yrs....it is really funny how things work out!
    Happy anniversary!

    ha! I never think about "exercising" after or while drinking, but I swear, for pool playing there is a magic zone, everyone sucks playing sober, then around a couple of drinks it seems like we play better, but then too much and it sucks again!

    yeah that's how I am, when I play halo or call of duty I usually end up shooting my own team mates after too many!

    Oh and exercising so I can earn enough cals for a few shots or the other half of the bottle :wink:

    So I had 2 glasses of wine tonight, my first wine in 33 days :smile: wasn't even sure I wanted it that much but I was cooking with it and decided to pour myself a glass. Just when I was starting to enjoy my wine and chill out the guy I've been seeing decided to phone me and start a deep and meaningful. Seriously why can't life just be simple sometimes? Needless to say the rest of the wine disappeared pretty quickly after that, to be followed by a vodka. Ooh I'm going to feel terrible in the morning, hangover from the alcohol and the emotional crap, great feeling huh, I've been there enough times before!!

    Hey guys! New to MFP but I know exactly what you are all on about... :)

    Hadn't drunk a drop all week and then massively screwed up last night, 3 glasses of wine and a beer - Just about stayed within my calorie limits but right now I'm a teeny bit hungover and ALL I can think about is food!!! The stupid thing is I know i'm not actually hungry, but I'm trying to find distractions around the house and failing... i swear the hangover involves me going more off my healthy plan than the original drinking sesh!

    Beer, I love my beer, I try all different kinds from all around the USA and the world. Since I work the night shift, I don't drink beer on during teh week, BUT I will indulge ont eh weekends, but usually no more then 4-6 a night (two nigths) I won't have more then a 12 pack in the house, and since in Georgia you can't buy liquor on Sunday, I have to keep 6 for Sunday handy :)

    what can I say I love it...

    bump. We just got the Kinect and I love it. Played the Shark game last night with the kids and had fun jumping around. That has to count as some sort of exercise right???

    Fri - 3 bluemoons and I had Fetuccini for dinner. Went way over the Cals. Today is another day:) Have a good weekend everyone.

    Well, last night was my game group night and I did very good!! I took 2 cups of raspberry lemonade crystal light, with a shot of vodka- and that is all I drank! Then when I got home I drank a glass of water- this morning, very refreshed!

    Awesome job Kim
    Yvone, glad you were able to have the wine after the phone call. You have done so well.

    The sun is finally shining so I need to get out and get working on the yard so I need to keep this short.

    So last night my teeny tiny bottle of pinot grigio turned into a regular sized bottle and then it was chased with two vodka rocks.

    That being said - I have lost 3 pounds since Monday so I need to get back on the wagon. :bigsmile:
