    We had a very nice Thanksgiving. Had company for a week. Consumed WAY too many carbs. Looking forward to carb detoxing this week. As with some of you- I hope to get a few zeros in this week!

    Good Thanksgiving here as well but like so many of you- WAY to much alcohol...last night I finally got a zero. o:)
    Tonight probably not though, hubby is already teasing me with a nice bottle of red he bought...ugh, I'm so weak.... :#

    Me too, Ann. We got some cool weather finally, so red wine is perfect. I am upping my exercise though, so do feel better about that.

    I got a zero in last night as well! Now if I can string a couple together, and exercise, and watch what I eat....

    I have such ambitions when I get up and while driving to work. Then when I get home I have none and non of it gets done. Then I start the cycle over the next day.

    I hear you, Robin. Then that's followed up by beating myself up about it. It's not a healthy cycle to put ourselves in. :'(
    I'm in the calm before the storm when the painters and carpet guys come next week. I have a list a mile long of things I need to do. Why didn't someone remind me that replacing carpets is pretty much just like moving??!! ACK! The plus side to it all? I'm hoping I burn a few calories doing all this. Which of course will be countered with plenty of wine. :drinker:

    thanks Syd. Doug is sick again so it has been a long week. I have been dreaming hard this week about remodeling the kitchen. I Even pretend ordered my cabinets. but there is so much other stuff that needs to be done first. I need an ambition potion that will get my *kitten* in gear.

    Hey lushes. No 0's here but only 1 Monday and 2 each Tuesday/Wednesday.

    I've been sticking with the keto diet and am down 3.5 pounds from Monday as of this morning. I know a lot is water weight but I am thrilled and not feeling deprived. Here's to hoping I can not totally derail from the diet and booze moderation this weekend when we head out of town!

    I feel ya, Robin. My kitchen needs work as well but I've decided to wait after the holidays. It's just too overwhelming to think about right now.
    Congrats, Ashley!! I finally got on the scale and am up 1 1/2 pounds. I'm hoping to take care of that by next week.

    Yup, may as well just wrap up the year here. I'm sure the lushes will be busy with the holidays.

    Perhaps we can post threads by seasons? That way we get four a year and they set the theme for the quarter. :)

    Robin- thanks!
    Sydney- Sorry to hear about your cat. This has not been your year. I am looking forward to hearing about how your house turns out!

    Sunday and Monday both two. Starting out the week with a little moderation!

    Sunday was 3 ciders. Monday I had a cider and 2 small glasses of wine. Tonight is a holiday social. I'll try to moderate. My diet is still going well. Down 4 pounds since last Monday.
