    Have fun in Chi-Town, Kim!!!!!!!

    Welcome, Michelle!!

    Okay, the Smurfette on the Rag sounds delicious...but the name. Ew! :laugh: (And I happen to have some Blueberry vodka...)

    Hubs and I are kidless tonight--we're taking an 8 hour CPR/First Aid class tomorrow so we can coach. Blargh. I think he's hitting happy hour with his boys and I'm going to go for a long-as$ bike ride and then relax with some drinks.

    So far this week:
    Sunday=1/2
    Monday=1/2
    Tuesday=1/2
    Wednesday=3 1/2
    Thursday=2 (shots of Tuaca)

    I have to ask..WHAT is in a smurfette on the rag???

    I played a soccer game last night for a local pub and it's kinda hard to turn down the free pint after...soccer + free beer? Heaven. I burned all those calories off at the game, right?

    I notice people are tallying drinks on here...is the goal to try and hit 0 drinks? Can anyone play? Do you post it once a week or just whenever you post?

    Thanks! My n00b is showing...

    I think everyone has a different reason for posting their beverage tallys. Some are trying to not have any while others are trying to limit. I do it....hmmm not sure why I do :laugh: but I like to see it written down...all the days in a row!!!!

    Faith!!!! drunk posting again. Remember you have a final weigh in next week. :laugh: How about the day after we all do a group lushy posting night?

    Kasi, hope you haven't left yet, go buy an extra bottle. Better to be safe than sorry. You're making memories with your sister, you want to remember how much fun you had or that you ran out of booze? :drinker:

    Michelle, I think some people were wanting to stay under so many drinks per week so started counting. I can't remember after 5 so no since in me counting. :bigsmile:

    Robin, it's hard to get going again once you have stopped exercising. Hope you can find some motivation to get moving again. Maybe spend some time over in the motivation and sucess area?

    Debbie, I just got back from the liquor store and I bought half a gallon of vodka and half a gallon of some premixed cosmo stuff. It looked good so I bought it.... not sure what the calories are but i'm not too concerned. I'll just run up and down the sand dune a couple extra times:wink::drinker:

I do like living a healthy lifestyle but ya gotta live too ya know! Have a baseball tournament this weekend so there will definately be beer all day tomorrow! So excited!

    I lost count last night. :embarassed:
    Got on the scale this morning and down a pound.
    I'm going to wait to count it though, since I'm going out to dinner and no exercising today.

    Happy weekend everyone!!

    Last night I went to happy hour and had 5 bud lights and another at home.
    Today was Warrior Dash and I was feeling a little rough, not hungover but I think I was dehydrated. I finished the race in 39 minutes. Afterwards I had three beers, a bloody mary and another beer. I am tired. I don't know how to log that crazy obstacle course!

    Seriously lushy saturday. Went to a brewery taproom and had a flight of their delicious 8 beers. Then had a pint. Then went to lunch, which involved 2 more beers. Then stopped home had another beer, than walked to the bar......5 shots and 3-4beers (maybe), then stopped at wawa on the way home at some ungodly hour and got a delicious chicken salad hoagie and sunchips, HA, amazingly the scale was still nice to me yesterday :happy:

    Had my bachelorette party this weekend and can honestly say I drank so much the past three days to last me a year! It was a good time, but I definitely need a few days to recover! Here's my plan for the week...
    Monday - 0 drinks
    Tuesday- 0 drinks
    Wednesday- 0 drinks
    Thursday- Cubs game for the fiances 30th bday so I'm sure beers will be involved
    ...and who knows how the weekend will go!

    Oh gawd.

    My liver hurts.

    Sunday=1/2
    Monday=1/2
    Tuesday=1/2
    Wednesday=3 1/2
    Thursday=2 (shots of Tuaca)
    Friday=I lost count after the 3rd shot...
    Saturday=2 shots

    So, most likely total for the week is 14ish...

    Sunday=4 (all red bull and vodka)

    And I wonder why I couldn't sleep until around 2 this morning. I think I'm going to abstain completely this week. I need a break.

    Lushy weekend. Friends party Friday, cook out Saturday, beer n chili challenge yesterday which ended up being 30 give or take, little beers. So much fun but definitely didn't eat enough to have tried so many scrumptious beers. To top that off we are going to Vegas for a week on Saturday! Pretty excited but not looking forward to the plane ride :noway:

    Going to put in some good bike rides this week :smile:

    It has been a seriously hard transition back into school! Tues, Wed, Thurs were all 1 glass of wine, then 2 glass and 2 beers while out to dinner, 0 for Sat, 2 yesterday, 0 for today....
    I feel like I have been eating tons, though....and it has been hard getting my workouts in with regular work :(
    Ah well, at least the scale isn't going up!

    Wow... Sounds like a lot of us had a nice lushy weekend! I spend all day saSturday sitting in the sun drinking cosmos with my little sister! I taught my niece how to make a hat (on a knitting loom)... she loved it! Then I attempted to race my 7 year old up the sand dune. I lost BIg time. Sunday we went to the aquarium and then sat outside the Rogue Brewery and had a picnic while the guys crabbed off the dock. I had a few sips of my brother-in-laws Chocolate stout.... damn that beer is good!
