My journey to good health....and a hot bod ;)

I too am a rare drinker Amy :) maybe once every 2 months, maybe 3. So the alcohol effects me a lot more and quicker. So I had one too many last night and I completely embarrassed myself. I'm still cringing. Ah it's fine though, give it a couple of days and everything will be hunky dorey.
 
OMG tell me about your drunken mistakes? I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours?
I hope you're alright.
I'm with you on the rarely drinking thing because EVERY TIME i get drunk, i make poor life choices.

For example, the last time i got wasted, i ended up in bed with one of my male best friends and i'm supposedly a lesbo sooooo that's just confusing for everyone. and now i just dont drink. because when i do, i become this giant slag, apparently.
 
Oh dear!! I can be quite easy when i'm drunk too actually.

But well heres my story. I was so drunk last night that I was falling all over the living room, I had no control over my legs. And I kept snorting because I was laughing so much. So anyway we all went to the shop and I apparently embarrassed my mother and her fella because I was so out of control (I was all over the path mind, ha!) so they are super pissed at me. And because I knew they were trying to get rid of me (I couldn't go home like that!) I got upset and started crying LOTS.

So I went to the chippy on my own, and some freak just walked over to me and plonked his lips on mine (I don't think I kissed him back) as soon as my brain kicked in with what he was doing I pushed him away. So I was waiting for my order and the same guy comes over and puts his hand down the back of my pants so I pushed him away and said no. Then he came over and did it again and I pushed him away and said no. He kept saying to me "come back to mine, come back to mine, we'll drink more", yeah right, I know exactly what you're after buddy! Even the guy in the chip shop said to me "you be careful getting home", so anyway this guy walks me back home because he lives 4 doors down from my mother.

I know he only kissed me and felt me up a bit but I felt so violated. Just because i'd had one too many drinks does not give random people the right to just cop a feel. Its disgusting, I know it was my own fault for being so drunk and out on my own, but really he was taking advantage. So I told my Mum when I got in and she said "well what you complaining for?". Thanks mother, nice to know you don't mind random lads harassing me.

And now well today, I just feel so embarrassed about the whole damn thing. I know I embarrassed them, but lets face it, haven't we all done something embarrassing after too many drinks? I didn't realise I was so drunk to be honest, it just came on all of a sudden, even 3 hours later after i'd stopped drinking, the effects were still coming to me.

So thats it, no more alcohol. I refuse to be in that state again.
 
That's terrible! IMO, it doesn't matter what kind of state you're in, that behaviour's completely unacceptable. Shame on him, not you.

This. x 100.
You were very drunk but that never warrants being taken advantage of. That's disgusting. The chip shop owner is so sweet. Chivalry isn't dead.
 
I know it's a different mentality, but try not to worry what the scales say unless it's an "official" weigh in. By that I mean, for me, only weigh ins on Saturday count- anything else, and I shouldn't worry too much about it/ get too excited about it (although yesterday was a bad example of that :leaving: ). If you're still trying to weigh yourself less, try to put more emphasis on the days you're trying to weigh yourself rather than the other days- anything other than the "official" day is whatever fluctuation, you know what I mean?

I don't know how well this works for other people, but it's how I try to think of it.
 
Well for me, everyday is an official weigh in unfortunately.

I'm trying not to be too down about it, I think its because I drank a lot of milk yesterday and I did eat quite late at night, so maybe the food is still weighing me down, so i'll pay more attention to tomorrows weigh in. I'm expecting to have put 1-2 pounds on maximum. 5 is ridiculous, surely that must just be water or something!
 
It will be liquid.
Unless you ate an extra like.. 10000 calories, you will not have gained 5lbs of fat in an evening.
If your clothes fit differently, then maybe it's fat.
But IMO, it's highly unlikely.
 
Thankfully my clothes don't fit differently. I do feel extremely bloated though. But i'm gonna make sure today is a healthy one, exercise an all :)
 
if you're bloated, the 'weight' gain will be water retention, maybe some gas (niiice) from salt and bad foooods etc.
Have a peppermint tea.
 
Is it possible you're mildly lactose intolerant? That's what bloating and milk sounds like to me. Peppermint tea will make you feel better (unless you don't like it), at the very least. Or at least some sort of warm flavoured (low cal) liquid that you like.
 
I don't think so Amy, I don't normally have a problem with milk. But I did drink a lot of it yesterday. Maybe a litre and a bit? I was hungover so I was really dehydrated. I didn't fancy water so I was drinking milk all day. Its ok, I made a mistake and now i'm moving on. I'm pretty confident tomorrow will be good news. I remember the last time I ate late at night, I told myself i'd never weigh myself the morning after because its never going to be good news. I'm pretty confident the scales won't say i've put on 5lb tomorrow so i'm not recording it.

Today.

Ahem.
Quavers are not breakfast food, young lady.
Well done for getting back on the old wagon and doing exerciseee.
 
Hehe I know but I usually have a snack early in a morning because I wake up early, like 7ish and i'm always hungry but thats too early for breakfast for me. So I usually have weight watchers biscuits or something and then have weetabix a couple of hours later. But this morning I had 1 packet of quavers as the snack (88 cals so average cals for morning snack) but I wasn't hungry enough later on to have weetabix so I had another packet :)
 
Hi stacey, i read the last posts... i hope you feel better now <3
 
Today has been a good day I think. I've taken off most of the weight i'd put on. I'm not 153 (I couldn't bear to change my ticker!) so 1 more lb off and it'll be right, hehe!

Lunch
4 slices of grilled bacon with the fat cut off and some baked beans.
