Same boat, however, I surf and the best time to catch waves is early in the morning - that keeps me out of the bars on Fri and Sat nights!

We go to car shows and for motorcycle rides and I go to boxing tournaments to help out with my team. We sometimes go to movies.

I haven't had a drink in over 4 years, but I don't avoid a get-together at a bar if that's what friends want to do every now and again. While I have zero interest in clubs (too old, lol) I don't see the harm in spending a little time in a quiet bar or lounge.
Typically, though, I'm boring and married, lol. We like to go to our friends homes to watch football and just chill, or go out to eat, or entertain in our home. Other than that, there's nothing wrong with a movie, or just staying home and chillin' on the couch.

I usually am either playing Xbox with my husband or we go out with friends or have people over. Also the occasional road trip happens.

My son started daycare in September, and for the last two months I am spending every single week-end taking care of the sick and cranky child. We haven't gone out with my husband in ages. Usually I like to go out to the city and watch a movie after the kid goes to bed.

I worked all weekend!!! 
I am pretty boring too but we try to get out on the weekend and have fun. During the day we will go on really long nature hikes (so much fun and the dogs love it too), kayaking, canoeing, and other kinds of outdoors stuff.
My BF is a pilot so sometimes we will fly up to a lake or a cool gym that is close to us and workout there for the day. We will go to farmer's markets or find unique places to go shopping.
You can always go to a neat restaurant with friends too. Just because you eat healthy does rule out eating out on occasion. We are always on a quest to find healthy organic restaurants with locally grown foods. We have succeeded and found some really great places to go to.
And you can always go out and have fun without drinking. I don't drink at all (will have the occasional glass of wine at the BF's parents place once a month or so) but when we go out I am always the designated driver. I can still go out with friends but I can't drink since i have to drive everyone home  .

Honestly, I enjoy having very mellow weekends.
I clean the apartment thoroughly and catch up on laundry. I do any shopping I need to. Read, watch movies, go see movies...take care of my animals. Visit family. Sometimes I go out with friends to bars or for dinner...but I only do it about 1x/month.

My weekend life is pretty tame.
Friday's we usually stay in and watch dvd's or whatever is on TV. Saturdays we go shopping, then chill at home. Maybe see a movie, visit friends. Sunday we go to gym, then come home and relax.

I like to meet my friends for happy hour sometimes - but I drink club soda w/ lime. Looks like an adult beverage, so the serious drinkers don't give me any ****. I make sure I eat something really filling before I go, too.
Otherwise, I'm up so early in the a.m., I can't stay out late! LOL! I like to read, watch movies.

I find it easier to stay on course if I don't mess with my routine too much. So going to be early-ish on a weekend night (say nothing later than 11pm) and getting up early and refreshed keeps me on track. I find that if I go out and party, the next day is a complete waste and I'm back at square one.

I don't get out much, lack of funds 
I usually sit in watching telly or playing games on my Playstation or PC. Sad and boring, I know.

I'm not much of a socialite and I've don't drink alcohol (Never been drunk). I usually go for hikes, read books, play outside with my daughter, go see family, play board/card games with my fiance, or anything that has to do with being outside. Sometimes I'll take my daughter out to my father-in-law's place so she can chase his chickens..lol

I wouldnt completely avoid bars, if that is where your friends want to go, and you want to go too... Maybe just find a non-alcoholic drink that you enjoy. I get Soda or Tonic Water with a splash of lime juice, tastes almost identical to a gin and tonic, and no one knows you aren't drinking alcohol. Plus if you are in a place with black light it glows in the light 
Otherwise...I lead a boring life. My school takes up 99.9% of my time, I seriously have no time to go out until after Dec.5th.
When I do get time off...movies with friends, gaming on my computer, knitting, sewing, bowling, potlucks. My friends and I try to get together and make food, etc. That way we all know what we are eating, and what is in it. Plus its waaaay cheaper.

My weekend is Monday-Tuesday, so I tend to do grocery shopping, cleaning, laundry, and other boring bits. I kinda like it.

Nearly every single one of us has said that our weekend is "boring" - but we're doing what we want to do! We shouldn't put so much pressure on ourselves...

my wife and I generally curl up in front of the 50" plasma on friday nights and eat BBQ chicken pizza (its bulking time)... then on saturdays we like to go shoot clay pigeons with my buddy and his wife, she is a crack shot with my 410. I would say we actually go out on saturday night, maybe 2x a month. maybe drink 2 drinks, and then come home. we are home bodies.

Hey, I'm painfully jealous of the 50 inch (I'm a 42"), but curious about the plasma. I've heard they're great for picture quality, but not good for gaming. I'd like to upgrade to a bigger screen, but worry that the kinks haven't been worked out of the plasmas.
