Originally Posted By Lady Starlight Well, I'm not a fan amaretto,but, whatever floats yer boat. lol I have a friend who had that gastric bypass surgery to lose weight. She loves her wine. Sadly though, she re-gained most of her weight back due to her love of wine and alcoholic beverages.
Originally Posted By LOVE-DCA Umm no. sorry, but you can have a glass of your own at your own house on Thursday and that will be like having champagne Thursday with me.. No we aren’t talking alcohol, we are doing the calorie talk on alcohol!! Just found out that champagne has calories!! OHH GOD FORBID!!

Originally Posted By Lady Starlight Yes, it's very easy to gain weight when you consume alot of alcohol. I'm actually not much of a drinker at all. Some people are and that causes them to gain weight even when they eat healthy otherwise. there are calories inthe most surprising things I have found. I drink alot of coffee and have found that I cannot drink my flavored ones due to the calories that are in them.
Originally Posted By LOVE-DCA I wasn’t trying to be rude, but if you have one at your house it is still doing champagne Thursday!! And on Thursdays I wish everyone happy champagne Thursday! It’s a tradition! So lady starlight and kitty princess remember to wish each other a happy champagne Thursday come Thursday!
Originally Posted By Lady Starlight Well, you don't have to stay away from any of that. Just eat it inmoderation is all.Thats THE hardest part with weightloss and weight management for some. I do't have the self control sometimes that it takes,but I am working on it.

Originally Posted By LOVE-DCA Sorry kitty princesss if it sounded rude.. what I meant to say is ..if do it at your house it’s still considered champagne Thursday! And I will remember to wish you a happy champagne Thursday! yeah that is a good point. Coffee creamer. Yeah it says fat free—but the calories do add up!

Originally Posted By Lady Starlight LDCA, I do too. I drink about 2 pots of coffee most days. I had to stop useing the creamers due to the calories they have in it. I started to drink my coffee black and have finally gotten used toit. HOWEVER, I really miss the creamy sweetness of flavored coffee's. I use Truvia in my coffee every once in a while to sweeten it, but I try not to even use that anymore. When I go to DL I will indulge in a gourmet coffee there, and savor ever sip of it. those nasty calories are in EVERYTHING! DANGNABBIT ALL!
Originally Posted By LOVE-DCA I love nice dark, rich coffee I like it when it’s soo strong you can stand spoon up in it..but you are right those tiny little creamers they add up!! Even if you think that 4 is ok, think again!
