Happy birthday Gary!! I didn't see that it was your birthday yesterday or I certainly would have considered celebrating with a cocktail in your honor. :drinker:
Ashley, you're going strong...the snow sounds like a perfect reason to have wine.
Have fun in Vegas Robin!!
Bridget cheers to you! When I want to complain about it being cold here, all I have to do is look at the temps where you all are! Brrrrr.

I seriously am not sure why I'm doing this since it's not translating to any pounds lost. Usually I make up the calories I save from booze with non healthy foods, and I'm not even doing that. Stupid scale. Grrrr

I smashed my finger yesterday. I needed vodka to ease the throbbing. That's my story and I am sticking to it. I can't write with a pen today without a lot of pain. At least typing is good. Syd, I hate it when the scale doesn't recognize my sacrifices.0

Must be something in the air. I was down 0.1 lbs for the week. BAH!
Robin- sorry about your finger!0 -
An old friend came in from out-of-town
Wed - 6 beers0 -
Gary hi, a very belated happy birthday from me. You share your birthday with my best friend. Definitely a good day :-)
Robin I hope your finger is better soon, just so long as it doesn't stop you holding a glass....
I saw a report on the news earlier about the blizzards expected in certain parts of America. I hope those of you affected stay safe.
I kind of have a semi-win with the alcohol tonight.
3 glasses of wine drunk but I've managed to stop before the bottle is empty. I think I've borrowed some will power from somewhere0 -
Thanks for the birthday wishes! Now have a great lushy weekend! :drinker:0

Hey lushes. Well I made up for my time on the wagon. Friday night was not too bad. I had about 4-5 glasses of wine. We took the kids and went to early dinner and then drank some more wine after. Saturday was a doozie though. We did our usual coffee shop and then I decorated cake/cupcakes for almost 4 hours. We didn't eat lunch till late, started drinking around 4:30, never ate dinner and ended up staying up later than we wanted. Yesterday was Daphne's birthday party (she's 4 today!) and we were both unfortunately hangin' a bit and rushing around all morning and then pretty much vegged out the rest of the day. I think we're going to try to stick to no drinking during the week as a rule. Although I have a birthday dinner this Tuesday. But now that I had my off the wagon blowout, I want to get back to moderate drinking when I do. So cheers to that! Have a great week!0

Oy...being hungover at a kids birthday party does not sound pleasant!! Way to power through mom!
I didn't over do it this weekend. Went through almost 2 bottles in 3 days with the husband having a couple of glasses. I guess I'll see how the week goes with the 0's. It didn't seem to translate much on the scale so that's frustrating. I reallllly want to drop this excess weight so I need to figure things out.0 -
I hear ya Syd. My first week on the wagon I dropped a pound but then gained half a pound back last week.

Hey everyone!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GARY!!!!
Robin-how's the finger and how was Vegas.
Happy birthday to Daphne and Olivia, as well.
Back home they got hit with a HUGE blizzard, 23-30in...crazy and soooooo glad we missed it!!!
Lenny started work today, so starts some serious moderation, healthier eating and exercising. I am going to start with some yoga this morning and probably do a beach walk after Lenny is done work!! Not sure what is on my agenda for the day. Maybe some errands, maybe some cleaning.....weird to be alone. For the last two weeks Lenny and I have done so much running around together, now I don't know what to do with myself

Hi Kate!! Lucky you're in beautiful Hawaii! Man, I would give anything for warmer weather! But it'll be in the 60's come this weekend....in KANSAS! Very weird for January. LOL
I need to moderate this week, but I don't know how committed I am. Sunday the 31st is my birthday, so I consider this my birthday week.
I have a 3 day weekend & my husband & I are meeting friends in KC. I'm super excited!

Nice pics Kate - love the mountain/beach and Lenny looks totally different in the 2 pictures. (like the beardless better but you have a handsome hubby either way
)
I ate and drank a TON last week, we took a Royal Caribbean Bahama cruise - so much fun! Only bad part is that I sprained my left foot - it's a rainbow of colors still almost a week later! (I had not been drinking prior to hurting myself but I sure did afterword!! )
Been dry since I got back though - think my liver is waving the white flag!!

OK so maybe that no drinking on week days will start next week. Daphne wanted to go out to dinner for her birthday so we went for sushi. I had 2 glasses of white and nothing when we got home.
Hi Kate! Wow, he does look different! Cutie. I tend to like the long haired bearded, but that is my type. But he looks great either way. 0 -
Vegas was a success. Princess Ariel came to Olivia's party and was a hug success. My daughter told everyone that "Jamma, called some of her princess friends and got Ariel to stop by" (I'm Jamma) She entertained the kids for an hour. It was great. My daughter over did it as usually with really cute sandwiches(Croissants with eyes so they look like crabs) and fruit skewers (green grapes so they look like Kelp bulbs) and "seawater" punch. oh and we had seaweed dip (it was spinach dip) we decorated with green streamers for Kelp and blue streamers for water and put up a bunch of fish. Oh and we twisted pink streamers and made coral. It was really cute. I had a blast. And the best part of the weekend is that the BRONCOS WON!!!!
I didn't lush too bad. But I ate like crap and the scale really shows it.
BTW great pics Kate.0
