No-drinking train- hop on!

Tomorrow will be my last day of drinking before the rehearsal dinner. Yes that’s correct I am staying away from all types of liquor until our wedding weekend. I’m not a heavy drinker these days anyway since CP and I don’t have any bars to frequent, but on the weekends we will typically have a bottle of wine or two. However, now that football season has started (EAGLES!!!!!!!), not drinking beer on Sundays while watching the games is going to be tough!

I made this decision for one reason, and only one reason. My workouts have been going SO well and although I am not going to be at my goal weight by the wedding, I don’t want to ingest empty calories if I don’t have to. So tomorrow is a very good college friend’s wedding in GA. If I didn’t drink there everyone would think that I was pregnant (not to mention it’s just weird to not drink at a wedding)! Come Sunday though, I’m on the no-drinking train for a couple of weeks.

CP thinks that I am going to be drunk after the first sip of wine at our rehearsal dinner, but I think that three weeks isn’t THAT long to go without alcohol! Hopefully between eating healthy, working out a lot (running/ other cardio and No More Trouble Zones), and no alcohol I can drop a few more pounds before the wedding (or just get a bit more toned)! Wish me luck!

so excited for football season (PATRIOTS!), but I wish you well. Not drinking for me is kinda sacriligious.

I agree with Christina. This is going to make your skin GLOW on your wedding day!

Good luck! I know not drinking during football season is TOUGH!
