    wow! can't tell you how glad I was to find this group lol. I love love love wine and I am heartbroken at the fact that everything and everyone keeps saying how I need to stop drinking if I want to lose weight. Lately I have been resorting to pear grey goose and diet sprite! lol

    Looking forward hanging out and having a sip with all of ya! :)

    I guess it's a bit early to start... But a lil Baileys in this mornings coffee would be really nice!

    It's never too early to start. :wink:


    I only had one glass of white wine with dinner last night. I don't know where my inner lush is hiding right now.

    Since tapas brought up Bailey's...Has anyone tried the Aldi's version, I think it is called O'Donnells or something? It sure is inexpensive, but if it tastes like crap I would stick to my expensive Bailey's :tongue:

    What a beautiful ring Kat. I love pear shape diamonds..sheesh who am I kidding, I :heart: all diamonds!

    So far this week
    Sunday - 0
    Monday - 0

    Thanks =] I got the idea from a white topaz set in white gold pear shaped ring that I bought years ago. One of my friends said "you want a pear?" as if it was a bad thing but I am anything but traditional and certainly didn't want a cookie cutter ring nor wedding which is why I'm not wearing a white dress =]

    Monday - 0
    Tuesday - 0

    I hate taking my ring off but I do so when I work out so it doesn't get gross, it's been a great motivator the last two days and I've gotten my work out in as soon as I get up =] also been good with eating. Boy er fiancé asked if I wanted wings with dinner last night and I said no, well yes but no. I said we can't have them as often as we have been, even if it's a tiny amount and he agreed. I got a dry turkey sub instead with a greek salad with balsamic =] yummy. And even though I know it's fluctuation, I was down a pound on the scale today despite knowing that grinder had tons of sodium. I'm still going by the weekly weigh in but for the next 10 months I'm going to keep better track of what the scale says even with knowing it's just a number. I don't have a dress yet so I can't exactly just go off of how that fits but hopefully soon!

    Not doing so good with my one a day goal!

    Sunday: Lots
    Monday: Irish cream in my coffee and two shots
    Tuesday: Irish cream in my coffee again (2 cups)

    To my defense, the irish cream was only because I was out of coffee creamer:ohwell:

    Hello all! I am so glad I found this group! I just love beer and sometimes would rather give up that last piece of pizza for another beer. LOL. Glad I am not the only one struggling with losing weight and wanting to drink! :drinker:
  • Sooooo i missed lunch today and im under my calorie goal for the day so im really debating a glass of wine :) It would bring me over my goal ....but not near as much as if i were at my goal for the night. So i should have the glass of wine, rightttttt ???????

    Someone twist my arm :)

    How nice to find you guys (and gals)! I love my red wine and have a hard time giving it up. When I go scuba diving there is nothing better than a nice cold beer (or 4) with a couple of chicken wings to relax. Everyone tells me I have to give it all up if I want to lose weight. I sometimes go over, but I try and get all my good healthy foods (protein, calcium, a little fat and carbs), then use the rest to indulge myself in a few glasses of wine at the end of the day.

    With Christmas coming up, I know there is going to be a lot of Irish Cream, Mead, Irish Car Bombs, eggnog, etc. in my future.

    Kat, congrats on the engagement!
