Falling off the Wagon
I fell spectacularly off the wagon yesterday!
My boyfriend and I haven’t been out on a date in a while, so he treated me to dinner at one of my favourite restaurants last night.
I started off fairly well, opting for vodka, lime and soda when we went for a drink beforehand, instead of having lemonade in it. When we got to the restaurant, though, it all fell apart.
A full three course meal, with every morsel finished off, and half a bottle of wine were probably not what I should have indulged in, but the food is so delicious – and the wine was free because of a special offer – I shouldn’t have expected anything less.
To make it even worse, we then went for drinks after the meal, where I indulged in not one, but two cocktails – a Cosmopolitan and an Amaretto Sour.
The calorific intake must have been phenomenal and was only worsened by the fact that I had a massive hangover this morning and the associated munchies! Snacking all day has been the only reprieve from the shocking headache that’s plagued me all day.
I’ve been a very bad girl and must haul myself back on the wagon tomorrow, even if it takes every ounce of strength and determination I possess!
