Janelleas's Journal, 21 December 2008

Happy thought for the day: I am happy with my family and friends and the holidays are fun! Difficult to get through on diet plan but still almost worth any small gains.

I didn't exercise again today and I don't want that to become a habit. Tomorrow I exercise no matter how early or late I need to get it done. I just couldn't face exercise today, I woke up with a hangover. First hangover I have had in over 10 years! My GF that lost her mother has not been handling this first Christmas without her mom very well and she needed a "party"... so last night at our dinner party with them and few other neighbors and mutual friends, I just kept getting us more champagne and lost track. I don't remember anything after the last guest left... hubby said I was funny until I told him I was dizzy and that was it, nitey nite time for me! We met with our friends for Breakfast out this morning and I was really not up for it but being the trooper I am... off we went for breakfast, thank God it wasn't til 9am!

I did discover that if you drink a lot of champagne, you are not hungry for the after dinner dessert. The thought of anything with chocolate or sweets of any kind just didn't appeal to me at all. Still didn't today, with hangover.

Im getting too old for this!! But it was a successful party. We have our youngest daughter and oldest daughter coming for Christmas with their hubby's and doggies (actually one of them is a wolf..not a dog). At our Dinner party everyone here decided they would all come back for a New Years Eve Party. Im not sure how that happened but at breakfast everyone was talking about "MY" New Years Party that they were all coming for. :) Motto: If you drink too much champagne then you will probably make committments you will have to live with.

LOL Janelleas you are so funny! ImLuuvd, what does booo yaaa mean? When I was in China, I asked the tour guide what to say to the venders when they jump on you, and she said to say "boo yaa". So I said it and they thought it was so funny. So I looked it up on the net and it said that it meant "I'll kill you". Do you have another meaning?

Ick! That is such a lousy feeling. I like my wine but keep it in check (most of the time) just at the thought of feeling crappy the next day. Problem is that I'm such a lightweight with it that 2 glasses is sometimes too much. I crave salty fatty food after and the thought of sweets turns me off too.

Ugh I feel for you girlie. Just be glad it was one night...thankfully hangovers pass...I recommend an aspirin...and warm but not hot shower...a cold carb such as a sandwhich or a cold potato or a cold pasta...then a small nap...maybe a diet dew when you wake up. Glad you had fun :) Go out at get that excercise today and sweat it out!

LOL. I have those "I'm too old for this" moments also! Good plan to get in the exercise. Looking forward to reading in your next journal entry what type of exercise you did. Enjoy your workout! Love your grateful attitude.

Look out! Sorry about the hangover! I have always heard that a hangover is a sign that your body is dehydrated. You will drink lots of water to re-hydrate your body -- I am certain! I am glad the dinner party was a success and that you were able to comfort your friend and "let your hair down" a bit -- not to imply that you are a hair-up kind of gal. I enjoyed hearing about the party -- truly! Keep the faith! No more champagne for us for a while -- okay? Okay!

You party animal, you! Maybe a little less next time, else you may wake up the next morning having committed to painting someones house or climbing Mt. Everest! Glad you are having a good time with friends and family.

LOL at the New Years Party that evolved whilst you were "under the influence". I hate not remembering the whole evening! But it sounds like you had a lot of fun and I'm sure the unexpected party will be a hit, too. It's important for us all not to heap on the guilt at this time of year when our eating habits are put to the test. Enjoying life's celebrations is a must if we ever hope to make this a permanent commitment. All restriction and no fun makes for a recipe for failure, to be sure. Keeping up the exercise is a great way to counterbalance. Keep up the great effort and attitude!

Just checking back in on you to see how your hangover -- I mean ahem - ahem - your day has gone today? Much love!

LOL! I am you today. Went to friend's house last night-drank tequila-no appetite. The food looked glorious though. Spoke french to actual French people. Invited myself and family to her house for Xmas Eve. I would NEVER do such a thing sober. Now I don't know what to do... I hope you are feeling better today-it sounds like you had a marvelous time-at least what you can remember.

A hangover is definitely a good sign, one day we will have to have a drink together. ;-)

Ohhh you bad girl!!! only kidding. It is wonderful that you had such a great time.. and the aftermath (the pain) you feel today will subside and pretty much put a guarantee that you won't do it too often. I hope your friend appreciates your sacrifices :) :) Much laughter in the coming few weeks... Stormi

Gug and anyone else wondering....Booya is in the urban dictionary, meaning, "in your face, or Heck Yes or Hell Yes, or also known as a yell of satisfaction or something being done well with braggin rights. gug, I lived in other countries where you can not use terms we use here in the states at all. In fact the word Peach in Turkey is an extremely vulgar word! Now back in the USA when someone tells me their day is Peachy or they say someone is a peach...I blush and laugh. I'm not sure what booya meant in China, I didn't even find your translation of it. But here in the USA it just means, Heck YA!!!! Sorry for any confusion to anyone.
