Now wait...how can something as delicious and wonderful as alcohol ever be bad? As long as you don't overdo it...

I really didn't overdue it...I had 4 drinks Friday, 4 drinks Saturday...after not having ANY for like 3 weeks...I'm just looking for a scapegoat...sorry alcohol, don't hate me!

An endocrinologist once told me that as little as one alcoholic drink can slow your metabolism up to 70% for the following 24-48 hours, especially for women! I had to give up alcohol, and I was going to grad school to be a winemaker! I ended up dropping out of school to focus on my wellness instead. It's been well worth the sacrifice! I feel AMAZING now!

I have been drinking so much liquid to flush it out....I am losing bit by bit but not nearly as quickly since then...idk perhaps I'm in a plateau...

And why on earth would anyone buy CANNED bean sprouts? I've never seen them before. I grow all of my own sprouts at home in my kitchen. It's super easy, INCREDIBLY cheap, and they're a powerhouse of nutrients! I can't imagine how the canned ones must taste! Blech!

HAHA, they weren't great, I will admit...I had randomnly bought them last time at the grocery store because I was looking at the Asian cuisine section for rice noodles...I remembered seeing them in some recipe somewhere, it was an impulse buy...regretably lol

Great job on #2 & #4. Sorry you didn't enjoy lunch.

Sweeet2th I didn't know that. No wonder every diet recommends to stay away from alcohol. Luckily I hate it and never drink it.

And just in case you need another reason to steer clear of The Sauce, it isn't just the calories in alcohol or the metabolic effects it has, but take a moment and think about how it affects your ability to make wise decisions. I know I've thrown caution to the wind on MANY occasions after a few cocktails and inhaled a massive cheesesteak or 6 donuts because of the way alcohol lowers your inhibitions. Food for thought.

Yeah, I'm mighty grateful that I no longer crave alcohol. I deal better with life when I'm not wishing I could just "have a couple" to unwind and/or forget my problems. Besides, the lower cal drinks gave me heartburn and the ones I loved were high in calories.

People who need a couple to unwind have a drinking problem.

You are right Eddie and congratulations on being sober. That is a big achievement. A lot of people have a drink to unwind after a stressful day like my friend does. They think that they are in control, that they can stop when they want to but sometimes that's not the case unfortunately.
