Happy 25th SoCal!!! That's amazing
Fiancé and I pretty much had our Valentine's dinner out this past Saturday as Saturday's are our "bad" day. This Saturday we're having dinner at his parents because his youngest sister is home for a visit from college. He won't be too late tonight but I would imagine we will just have one of "our" nights where we make dinner and watch a movie. We have a whole bottle of presecco but I want to be good and try to stick to my new plan of action. Now, if HE wanted to open it and celebrate then I would definitely have some haha.
Sunday - 1 glass off red
Monday - 0
Tuesday - 0 unless my fiancé wants to open the prosecco or have some red

Sounds sooooooooo yummy!
Hubs and I are going out tonight with other couples and friends! Not sure if there will be drinks tonight, but it wouldn't surprise me. I will definitely try to limit myself to 2. Since I had a total cheat weekend I feel kinda guilty about tonight - we are eating Italian...yum!
SoCal - Happy 25th!! That is amazing. :drinker:
Good luck to everyone this week on their goals! Happy Valentine's Day! 0 -
Hubs and I are lame....nothing special planned for tonight...but, I love him anyway
Kat, you can do it...I have totally been able to cut back to one or two days...it's not forever, just until the dress fits perfect
Kris, no way I could go for Italian and not drink...I order my own bottle while hubs drinks mixed drinks :blushing:
Monday, 0 drinks
Tuesday, 0 drinks
Total: 0 drinks
Anyway, Happy VD everyone...0 -

That's the thing, I know it'll fit no matter what because of the style. I mostly want to lose the weight to get back to my normal size, the dress is good motivation though, but more motivation to really focus on my weight lifting so that my arms look awesome =] The dress just laces so it can either go tighter or loosen up a bit. No way I'll need to loosen it though, at the rate I'm going, I'll need to tighten it! Restraining from the booze seems easier now, I know that I lose more when I cut back and it really hit me as to why that is the case so that helps. Plus when I cut back then I really enjoy my wine or what have you when I do have it and ... no hangovers 0 -
Happy 25th SoCal!! That is wonderful!
Dot you are doing well!!
Chloe, Kblue dinner sounds fantastic!
Thank you Dot, nisijam, and yvonne for your comments Sat.; it is amazing.

crazycat, I'm glad the hypnosis is working for you!
I've been hypnotized once...but it was part of a show and I clucked like a chicken on stage and danced like a fool. :ohwell:
He did give me some suggestions after though, to help with stress. I came away verrrry relaxed.0 -
Happy Anniversary SoCal! Sounds like you were hypnotized at a Renaissance Fair show
Crazycat - Thanks for sharing about your hypnosis. I find it fascinating.
I haven't been on here lately because I quit drinking..... just for the remainder of February. Last drink was Superbowl Sunday. It's been over a week and I want one bad, but I am going to remain strong and sip on my boring Fresca.
Good news though, I adopted a rescue puppy and she will be here tomorrow night. I am so excited!
Happy Valentines Lushes!!:drinker: :drinker: 0 -
Well, it was an absolutely amazing Valentine's night. Fiancé came home, worked out and then we ordered chicken pad thai, had prosecco and watched Crazy, Stupid, Love. By far the best romantic comedy I have ever seen. Where I wasn't 15 like Steve was in the movie, I have been in love with the same man since I was 17 years old and this time next year, we will have been husband and wife for 4 months I could not be happier right now and can't even begin to comprehend how lucky I am to have found the man I am going to be with for the rest of my life. Sure sometimes wondering what it would be like to have been a single girl and see the possibilities crosses my mind but then I see my friends who haven't found their "Kyle" yet and I am instantly reminded of how amazingly lucky I am to have found my Kyle
Alright, enough sappy crap, jeez, I'm not even a sappy kind of girl! Guess engagements will do this to a girl haha. Anyway, hope all of my lovely lushes had a wonderful day/night, you all deserve it
Time for this lush to take her fiancé and herself to bed, Back and Biceps tomorrow!!0 -

Aw, Happy Anniversary a little late!
Against everybody's advice I went out drinking Friday with nothing in my stomach but kale chips, popcorn and M&Ms. (We took my 2 year old to the movie first.) I only had a few drinks, maybe 4, but they were pretty strong and it didn't bode well for my Saturday. I met my first goal weight due to dehydration and an inability to eat for the entire next day. I lost 6 pounds but I would gladly take it back to have my Saturday with my kids back.
I didn't drink again until last night and I only had two small glasses of wine and that was mostly so I wouldn't hurt my boyfriend's feelings. We don't do much for Valentine's Day usually but he had to work and he wanted to relax after work and watch our show together. On our show they always drink wine so he bought us wine. Then our show wasn't on so we drank it while we watched The Daily Show. haha
I hope everyone had a lovely Valentine's Day, whether you celebrated alone or with someone else.0 -
Monday- 0
Tuesday- 0 (although I did have 3 pieces of candy out of the hubbys vday gift :ohwell: )
Glad to see everyone had a good Valentines Day! I cannot wait for my filet with shrimp on Friday for our romantic dinner in 0 -
3 hour Italian Dinner did me in... 3 glasses of wine before I cut myself off. Left there and went to bar where I did 3 buttery nipple shots! Good food and great time with hubby and friends. Get this - our meal and my 3 glasses of wine were only $36!!!:bigsmile:

V-Day dinner was so good, DH made Lobster Thermidor! I never have had it before, it was tasty. Dessert was where all the calories were, though, chocolate croissants, and a bottle of Apothica Red, it's a really nice CA red varietal, only $10.
Wolf, what kind of rescue pup did you get? take pics!
I feel a little rough today, could've used more sleep.
Robin, have fun in Vegas!0 -

Finished off my thai today, I'm sure there is loads of sodium and I don't want to have that tomorrow because I know it will mess with weigh in day on Friday. Probably won't eat the rest of the day but if I do get hungry, it'll be veggies! Getting lots of water today to flush the sodium out. Sunday will officially start the new plan and there won't be an celebratory holidays which will make it easy haha.
Have a great time Mama Lush!
And thanks Kris, guess we've learned real moderation =]0
