lose count
Miss the number
To lose count is to fail to keep track of a number as it increases.
You might lose count of how many times you've seen a movie, how many drinks someone has had, or how many days since something happened.
The phrase often implies a large quantity: I've been there so many times I've lost count.
It can also suggest distraction or overwhelm rather than sheer volume.
