    Hello everyone! Hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day weekend! I know I ate & drank way too much.....and I worked today, but then my hubby & I are leaving for San Francisco in the morning to celebrate our 4 year wedding anniversary & see our wonderful friends. I am so, so excited! Won't be stepping on the scale for quite some time though.......:/

    Kate sounds like you had a great time. Enjoy your privacy for the next three weeks.
    Bridget I hope you have a great time in SF.

    I only had one vodka rocks last night. I am trying to listen to my body on whether or not I really want it or am I just having a drink out of habit. I am doing the same thing with bad things like donuts. If I truly ask myself the answer is no more than anything. When the answer is yes then I give in. I am just trying to break habits.

    Happy Lushing all

    I have been saving cals for drinking and having a little almost everyday I think, since all those 0s:
    Wed (concert): 6 beers
    Thursday: 2 glasses of wine
    Friday: 2 glasses of wine
    Saturday: 2 bloody marys then 4 beers at the Rockies
    Sunday: 1 beer, 2 glasses of wine
    Monday: 3 beers
    Tuesday: 2 glasses of wine

    I don't know if I will log any more 0s this week. I started the new Jamie Eason plan on Body Building .com it's "From flat to all that" and it's in a blog format now, which is kind of weird, I have to say, I don't love that, I downloaded the PDF for all the weeks so far, but it's hard to navigate for the video instruction (you have to go to "older posts" and scroll down, then "older" again and so on, til you find the part you want. It might be ok if you started when she did, but it is not user friendly coming in now that she is almost done with the 12 weeks.)

    Good luck with the new program Amy...does sound a little complicated but I am sure you'll get it done!!!

    Monday-3 beers and 2 vodka tonics
    Tuesday-1 vodka and sprite
    Wednesday-0
    Thursday-not sure but I probably won't have many extra calories for boozing so I might skip it.

    Monday - 3
    Tuesday - 0
    Wednesday - 4 glasses of wine at the birthday party
    Thursday - Going to stop to fill up my half growler of beer and some wine. Mom and Dad get in town in a few hours so we will be drinking. Need to take it easy. Work is going to be insane this month. Maybe that's the diet Gods forcing me to not drink (and be hungover) during the week.

    I had two 0's this week and then yesterday morning I had to put my oldest kitty to sleep :'( I know he feels better now but it's never easy and especially after finally feeling better after losing my other sweet kitty and Lily last year. I'm still going to try for 0's though... But not today.

Beer, obviously, beer, we might go down the basement and move some of our things around and make sure everything will fit in our shipping crate...but mostly beer :wink:

    Awww kat. I'm so sorry :'(

    Back from the beach...so amazing! My profile pic doesn't do it justice. Our room was right on the sand. The waves were huge! (Remnants of a hurricane in Mexico) the guys enjoyed the ocean...I had to just watch since my shoulder is still healing. We ate great food and had plenty to drink. I will be avoiding the scale for a while.
    It's hot as hell here so I'm trying to find motivation to exercise. I'm thinking I won't find much of a routine until next week.
    Happy weekend lushes!

    Shoe shopping FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Had a lot this weekend.
    Friday-2 vodka tonics
    Saturday-all the beer. I was so hungover yesterday....it had been a very long time since I was that hungover. It didn't stop me from drinking though...needed it to make me feel better.
    Sunday-1/2 bottle of cider, 4 manhattans and a small glass of wine!

    I am going to rack up a few zeros this week.

    I'm back! Looks like everyone is doing great.
    Kat- sorry about your kitty. :(
    We had a great canoe trip, 72 miles in six days, that includes about 7 miles of portages. Lots of work but great scenery. Posted some pics on my profile page.
    Have a great week everyone!

    I drank all weekend (Thursday - Sunday...and Wednesday too) but I never got hammered and never felt bad. I was a little tired and headachey for a little bit Friday but was fine the rest of the weekend. Going to rack up at least 2 0's this week and try to take it easy this weekend.
