    I love wine myself. I tend to not drink it very often anymore because for some reason, in my house the rule is if its opened its gone...LOL, not on purpose just kind of happens.
  • Yea wine drinkers! :) Seriously some of the replys on this thred make me think some of you maybe be my long lost twins.

    Warning: This is NOT my favorite way to drink but if I need to strech the calories sometimes I do white wine spritzers...it makes 1 glass of wine into 2.... yea I'm crafty like that.

    Oh boy, wine is a problem. Sooo tasty! And all my problems just drift away... except for that calorie count!

    You can drink things that aren't wine?

    I would suggest you find a better way to deal with your stress.
    Boozing it up with 4 glasses of wine will keep the fat on.
    Just quit altogether.
    For one year. And after the year is up, never have more than 1 or 2 and always with a fabulous meal.
    Good Luck :drinker:

    Pinot Grigio all the way! I have one glass a day. :-) I always save the calories for it!

    I love red wine - as others have suggested, save calories for it

    Skinny Girl Sangria = yum! I haven't tried the others yet

    I've had to really cut back on my wine. In fact, counting calories made me aware of the amount I was having. Some while preparing dinner, some with dinner, some after dinner. They weren't full-size glasses, just a splash here, a splash there, but now I'm now limiting it to two 5 oz glasses max. Sigh.... better for me, but I miss it.

    I LOVE wine, I drink it almost daily!!! I have only tried skinny girl margaritas so no thoughts on the other drinks she has...

    I've starting measuring it in a glass measuring cup...my husband just laughs at me!

    Drink and lose? Yes, I am dutifully checking into the club.

    Shiraz and plenty of it thanks, cheaper the better, that's my taste.

    Bottles you say? Fancy ... Mine comes encased in cardboard. ;)

    I like you.

    Me too!!!

    Love, love , LOVE wine! I've only had the skinny girl margarita as well and I really wasn't that impressed. I just work it into my calories for the day:)

    Yes please!!

    I like to have a glass when I'm home for the evening (or in the morning when I'm home for the day, hah!). I try to keep it to a glass a day and I am going to factor it into my calorie count, which isn't too hard because I love wine for wine's sake... I don't drink to relax and don't particularly enjoy being drunk... but when I go wine-tasting I make sure I'm not the DD, haha. ;) Every once in a while it's fun to finish off a bottle (or three) with friends, but not on a regular basis!

    I do wonder if i drink too much so i cut down.. didn't lose any more weight and was just blue.. yes i enjoy a drink i shared a bottle with my OH tonight but i do wonder if i drink too much I don't like waking up the next day not remembering my evening which sometimes i do on a couple of glasses..
  • i love white wines- soave and reisling are my faves- I have cut back a lot but still have a glass or two usually once a week-
    I feel like I earn it :)

    I'd love a glass of Riesling right now but I've cut down.

    I usually binge on wine every weekend but it's not helping me lose so it's had to go. :'(
    It makes me a bit sad!

    Being a "King" of course I love wine. Recently purchase 17 bottles on a recent trip to Napa Valley. Now I workout 6 days a week to support my wine drinking!!!


    I suggest we create a Wine Group!!!!

    What do you think everyone?

    Yes on the wine group. ;)

    Wine drinkers??.......I think I found my new BFF's! I love having a glass or two/three/bottle of red wine. I'm trying hard to limit it on the weeknights. My sister just bought me a shirt that says "Wine takes the ***** right out of me". Guess she's noticed that I've been limiting my wine too:wink:

    I am a straight up red girl myself, hard to find red wine lovers, most people like that spiked koolaid crap!

    I love white merlot

    Have tried all the skinny girl drinks and do not like any of them
  • I have had all the Skinny Girl products ---- she has a vodka now too. Very good --- low alcohol count --- which for some is good because you don't get buzzed so fast. For others, though you want the fast buzz.

    Glass of red wine practically every night. Hey, it's good for you!!! Many people and doctors) say a glass of red wine is good daily. I'm only following docs orders.... bahahahahaha!!!! :laugh:

    If I could own and live on a vineyard in Italy and make my living that way, I'd do it in a heartbeat! That's pretty much my dream life right there, lol! :love:

    I responded to a post yesterday about our Mantras. One of my responses was, "If I do this, then I can have wine when I'm done." Monday is set aside for Wine Night in my house. I have to make sure that I get enough exercise in so I may partake in more than one glass.
