Wow! You are a doodlebugger at heart! (a complement).
Thanks, I think??0 -
Seriously, I know that a glass of red wine is good for you, but when it comes to 3 to 4 glasses -- that's another story. I think I'm going back to my vodka with a splash of pineapple juice. Not that it's healthier, just fewer calories--I think.
So this is where you all are... luv this thread! I typically vacillate between red wine and vodka also. There are some great calorie-conscious suggestions here for indulging my inner-lush Only been at this mfp thing for a couple of months and still trying to balance alcohol into the equation. I sure exercise more now to "earn" those drinks lol!0 -

Hello...I just found this thread and think m prayers have been answered! Those damn drinks on the weekends are killing me! Not willing to give them up though. My best friend was in town all weekend, went to a wine festival on Saturday. Probably had in the area of 15 drinks in 2 days. Looking to cut back, but not cut drinks out.
Nice to meet you all!0 -

Labor Day weekend:

Sunday= lost track, had a few beers, a cider, a vodka pom drink, then maybe three coors lights at home.
Monday=1 marg
Today is a Rockies game, I am thinking of sticking to 2 beers unless I can get a workout squeezed in.0 -
I hope everyone enjoyed their weekends.....sounded like you did
Friday-1 smurfetter, 1 weyerbacher imperial pumpkin, 5 martinis and 1 glass of wine (SHOCKED I was still standing)
Saturday-Several 2oz sample of weyerbacher beers, 2 1/2 beers, 1 margarita and one shot
Sunday-6 martinis and 2 beers
Monday-2 1/2 beers and a glass of wine
I know it seems like a lot and well it is a lot but all my drinks were spreadout through the day, so I was suprisingly coherent by the end of the night...well except for sunday...that day was pretty ridiculous0 -
So, I have checked in recently but not done an actual drink count ---
Monday -1
Tues -2
Wed -2
Thur - 2
Fri -5
Sat - 2
Sun - 0
Mon (last night) 2
So I have been great about at least one '0' day and keeping it at 2 and under...Friday was fun night with the other teachers, so it counts as a special occasion:)
I am going to aim for more '0' or '1' nights this week (as I pour my 1 glass of Vihno Verde for the night.) Wish me luck! The students do drive me batty!!0 -
Tuesday - 00

Wasn't gonna drink last night BUT all this frickin rain is flooding my basement AGAIN!!! I needed something to take the edge off.
Tuesday-8oz of wine
Wednesday-some wine for sure, cause its still raining and the shop vac will be running again :sad:
Good luck all you gorgeous Lushes in the competition!!!!!!0 -
The plan is no drinks until the wedding (or maybe I will have some wine at the rehearsal) So I have about 10 days....I can do it! Yesterday was my first day with zero drinks and I survived

OMG - I think I've found my home. Can't remember the last day I didn't have wine (or something else) at the end of the day! Convinced it's why I've packed on the pounds. Went back to Weight Watchers and am now incorporating it into my daily point plus goal. Seems to be working -- first week down almost 3 lbs.
Feel free to Friend me if you want to get through this together WITHOUT sacrificing our love of the drink!0 -
