    I've been doing good at not drinking during the week... But since I didn't have to work today I drank last night with a couple of friends who brought beer over. I lost count after the first 18 pack was emptied. :drinker:

    Not sure about tonight... I'm hoping to be a 0, but will have an extra teenage boy. So that 0 might end up at 6!

    I've been working on not drinking during the week also! It's tough :) Last night, I had a bottle and a half of wine. On Sunday I'm going to my sister's for football, so we'll probably drink loads there too. I'm going to try to keep it to a minimum today (Saturday).

    Here is my plan for tonight. I worked out extra hard at the gym so I could allow myself plenty of beer/shots. Eight Bud Select 55's (or Miller 64's) will be my drink of choice and I'm allowing myself one misdemeanor shot (half crown/half buttershots for those of you who aren't familiar with it). That should give me a good buzz ;)

    Wish me luck!

    I worked hard this week and I'm SOOOOO ready to cut loose!! Can't wait to go out and see everyone's crazy costumes. Should be lots of fun!!

    Have a great Saturday fellow Lushes!!

    2 glasses of wine last night. That's it.

    Heading to the pool again today since it's warm. Going to swim and work out hard so I can eat tonight and not worry about calories.
    No plans to drink much, if anything. I think I'm still drunk from Thursday. :noway:

    Opps, I've been away for awhile. Maintaining my lushyness (within moderation).

    Currently enjoying some homemade meade (honey wine). It is REALLY good and I didn't think I'ld like it. It was taken about 6 months to be ready to drink. It's light and has a very mild flavor. Slightly sweet after taste but not like sweet wines, which I am not a fan; I like reds, specifically merlots.

    I think I will have another glass, or two ;)

    Stay Lushy San Diego.

    Feels like it has been forever since I have visited this thread!

    I haven't had a 0 day in an eternity -- but also haven't gone over two....
    although I haven't been measuring my glasses -- so it is more like 2.5 glasses of red wine a day...
    fitting it into the macros, though, and finally out of the plateau :)
    Happy Halloween!

    Newbie, who has really been needing a thread like this. THANK YOU! I have spent the day trying to get over too many vodka shots last night. Urgh. Vodka is pretty new to me, thinking a shot or two some nights would be "better" for me than all the wine I was drinking before. I'm not so sure now. I think I'm gonna have to distance myself from this higher proof stuff.

    Ew. Hung over...working out...bad idea.

    That reminds me, I have a funny story about the first time I went to New Orleans during Mardi Gras...to play in a soccer tourney. I'll blog about it.

    I was good yesterday--no drinks.

    Today, I was going to be good, but then my hubs and I came up with the "Tim Tebow Drinking Game" while we're watching our Broncos play...needless to say, I'll be sh!tfaced by halftime.

    We have a neighborhood Halloween party this afternoon...the kids will bob for apples, play pin the nose on the pumpkin, eat Jack O'Lantern pizzas...good times.

    I hate that I don't get to watch the Broncs. I learned to watch football when I lived in Denver so needless to say I am a huge Broncos fan. (I was a fan even before Elway) I love what Tebow did last week. enjoy the game.

    I just made a killer (read really hot) chilli and I am enjoying a blue moon right now. Not doing what I should be doing and frankly scarlet, I don't give a damn.

    have a great day all.

    Oh, so last night we had a blow out with the neighbor...

    Sunday=2
    Monday=1
    Tuesday=1
    Wednesday=0
    Thursday=0
    Friday=2 vodka/red bulls; 2 shots of Tuaca; 2 (or 3...by then I lost track) shots of Three Olives Cake vodka. So 7.

    However...11 for the week is WAY lower than my normal weeks, so I feel pretty good about it!!

    OMG I wish we could hang out.

    Friday=8 drinks, 2 glasses white wine and 6 pints of light beer.
    Way hungover on Saturday but,
    Saturday=1 drink, a glass of red during sipping and painting, where you paint a picture and they give you a glass of wine.
    Sunday=2 beers at the Avs game, but they are 24 oz each so I guess that is 4?
  • Ok so I didn't drink but one last week during M-T, drank on Friday Saturday and Sunday... I am so bloated from it... didn't realize until this Monday that my two lbs weight gain this weekend was cause by drinking..Swearing off the booze during every week M-T maybe even Friday.. If I am drinking on the weekend it will be only two a day.. OK so it is my goal lets see how I do...lol

    I basically hate the f'n scale today....

    The plan :huh: Actually, I don't have one. :ohwell: So, I am going to put a lot of f'n 0's and hope for the best. I'm going to do W2D2 of RI30 and hoping the vomiting phase was totally due to drinking the night prior.
