Still thinking about you and your family Syd! Happy Anniversary Robin!! Pretty good week this week: Monday -0 Tuesday - 2 glasses red Wednesday - 0 My youngest daughter found out today she got a promotion - she is a team leader for Bravo Cucina Italian Grill. She has been trying to get a manager position for about a month…

Sydney - praying for your MIL and you & your hubby!

Meg - I have started and re-started the C25k workouts....last time, just two months ago I made it thru week 5 but something with the 20-minute run REALLY hurt my foot so I had to take a break so now I've lost any gains I had from it so I may try one more time.... :p Good job on the yoga/no drinking! I had a pretty good…

Robin - I'm SO sorry about Doug's streak of misfortune - thinking about you both, sometimes the supporting role is a *kitten*!! Oops! I had an incredibly lushy week...not even going to break it down cause it's too embarrassing...and the scale reflected it! This coming week WILL be better, it has to be :# I love skinnypop…

Very lushy weekend here....ugh, sports watching just makes me drink! Friday afternoon we went downtown for opening day of baseball - we didn't actually go to the game but tailgated and watched it at one of the large venues that celebrate (i.e. offer drinks) every year. 5 beers and 1 margarita Saturday we took a 10 mile…

Gwen - I absolutely 100% ADORE Skinnytaste!! I have both of her cookbooks and 95% of my meals come from her...such tasty food. <3 Monday - 0 :# Tuesday - 0 On a roll and gonna try to stay there!! :)

Robin - great job! How did your weekend go?? Weekends are always my hardest time... Syd - so sorry to hear about your MIL... :( Ash - welcome!!

Hi Meg! St Pat's day was an interesting one....hubby is 100% Irish, so it's like Christmas to him...too many Irish car bombs, Jameson shots and Guiness beers! Saturday was a bit rough but the corned beef and cabbage was delish! 1 glass of red of Saturday...not sure tonight... Going for zero's for the week ahead

Had a pretty good week, especially considering work was pretty stressful this week! Monday -0 Tuesday -0 Wednesday - 1 glass red Thursday - 0 Friday -0 Saturday - 2 bacardi/diet Today, not sure. I have a bottle of Merlot with a bit in the bottle...might finish that off. Working on birthday plans for a trip to Florida to…

Sunday - 2 glasses red Monday - 0 Tuesday - 0 Tonight - 0 :) I love recipes, so I'm in! (mostly cause I love to eat but that is beside the point! ;) )

Another shy girl right here. Quite often, people have mistaken my shyness for me being "stuck-up", which couldn't be farther from the truth!! Once I know someone well, I will talk your ear off though... ;) Friday - Red Wine, I think just one glass...it was a couple of long days ago... :p Saturday - 1 Bacardi & diet Sunday…

No time for hating, only lushing!! Monday - 1 delicious glass of red wine

You are definitely not alone! It is a delicate balancing act - to drink and lose weight...I have no secrets to give but I can say welcome to a fellow lush!! :)

I liked having everyone's background - many of you I've chatted with over numerous years but now I've learned more about everyone. :) I've done pretty well this weekend - Friday - we went to go watch my stepdaughter's boyfriends band (they play country, which I'm not a huge fan of but I do enjoy watching Rye Whiskey - plus…

Hi all! I'm Ann, I'm 48 years old and married to the love of my life. <3 I live in Canton MI which is just outside of Ann Arbor. I've been married to my husband for 3 years, we've been together for 9 years. I have 2 adult daughters from my 1st marriage - they are 26 and almost 24. My husband, Ron, also has 2 adult…

You just made me laugh..."contemplated a no-booze February but quickly told myself that was ridiculous" HA! Spoken like a true lush!! The only good thing about being sick is that I'm not real hungry and alcohol doesn't sound real good....What?? :o Monday - 1 red wine Tuesday - 0 Wednesday -0

Saturday - had 1 Bailey's on the rocks while at my in-laws (they are such bad influences! Aren't parents supposed to discourage drinking?? ;) ) Sunday - 2 glasses red wine Monday - 0

Wednesday - we went to a Red Wings hockey game and I had one beer with dinner. Red Wings won an extremely exciting game that I was happy to be sober for and not needing to run to the bathroom :# :# Thursday - 0 Friday - 2 glasses of red wine Saturday - I'm anticipating a zero...going out with my girlfriends tonight...they…

Well, I made 17 days with zero alcohol and although I had alcohol last night, I'm not sure how much 3 sips of my husband's wine really counts. It did break my streak but more importantly I proved to myself that I could go that long without ANY alcohol. :) I too like the no-hangover resolution...I'm getting to old to behave…

Robin - Congrats on the new car! That is exciting and I wish I had auto start! Kate - I can't believe it's already been a year! Wow - that is exciting too! :)

Sorry to sound like such a Debbie downer! Just don't want to see anyone I know go thru what Ron's family is going thru... :#

Day 12 - no alcohol. Hasn't been too bad so far....doing a meatless week too, that hasn't been too bad either but I know my husband is struggling a bit with both... So, it's been 8 months since my brother-in-law passed away unexpectedly. The family finally just got the official autopsy report back and it is a bit startling…

Have managed the longest streak of zero's in years...have not had anything to drink since New Years day. Going to keep going and pass my lush card to someone else for a while.... :) ;)

Monday-0 Tuesday-0 Wednesday-0 Thursday-0 We went out to dinner with friends last night, which was a big test for me but still managed a zero. My ultimate goal for this month is no alcohol January. Need some serious weight loss and I know the alcohol is working against me :( Going to try to make it to Super bowl weekend...

Going for a fairly dry January...so far so good! Drank WAY, WAY too much over New Year's weekend...embarrassingly amounts... Time to make some changes!

Syd- I love your new pic!!! Too much alcohol to count.....new leaf turns over tomorrow...

Yvonne - ouch! Hope you mend quickly! Mon - 0 Tues - 2 glasses red wine - oops! best laid plans and all... Wed - 0 Shopping today for all Christmas food - have family coming in waves starting at 11 am on Christmas eve....not even going to waste my time saying I'll moderate....it's family after all.... ;) :p

Been drinking WAY too much...ugh...Sunday I way overdid it but it was just going down so smoothly...2 glasses red, 4 bacardi & diets and 2 random Lumberjack shots (Caramel vodka/whisky) - ouch! I actually didn't feel too bad on Monday but do I ever need a break! Monday - 0 Need zero's until Friday, which is when we have my…

I feel you cause I'm in the same boat...ugh! Keep gaining and losing the same stupid pounds and can't seem to get myself together to get past about 5 lbs. I know what to do just can't seem to commit... :p
