Alcohol

Woodys · August 1, 2006

I quit drinking all together, not only because of the calories but because alcohol could distort you better judgement......once under the influence it isn't hard to make bad food choices.....that only adds insult to injury!

I have my purse packed with raspberry flavoured crystal light, the single packs. When I'm in a social situation I ask for Water with lime in a red wine glass and then I douse it with the crystal light......I feeling like I'm playing the part but without the extra calories or buzz on.

The problem for me is that when I drink, I want to eat. I nibble and snack and since food and alcohol so often go together, I'm learning to be careful now.

I don't drink near as much as I did in college but I still enjoy drinking on Friday or Sat night, not both. I factor those cals in my daily count and I usually can make up for it and not gain. I make sure I don't drink too much though, b/c I have to be able to go to the gym the next day and work those calories off. Being hung-over doesn't do me any good....:faint:
