I solemnly swear that on this St Pattys Day 3/17/2010

I will not overdo with with the corned beef

I will only drink one or two Bud LIGHTS max

The soda bread will remain untouched

And that I will carry this pledge through the weekend and every other time the leftovers are reheated.



--feel free to add :drinker:

    I solemnly swear that I will eat a ton of corned beef, several pounds of cabbage, and a significant quantity of potatoes (w/sour cream).

    Furthermore, I will enjoy Guinness, Extra stout, thank you. And perhaps a little Bailey's. I will have several, and I will not care.

    If I should fall, (and let's face it, I just might),,, I may get up. Or not. :laugh:

    I understand that I will take in a few thousand calories too much. I may therefore legitimately gain 1/2 a pound. I further understand that my body will howl in protest and retain several pounds of water. I will therefore weigh 2/3/4 pounds more than I ought'a come thursday morning. I promise not to come here crying the blues about it.

    So - it's Saint Patty's day, Let's us eat and drink and be merry. :drinker:

    I would be the same way...minus the corned beef, except that I gave up alcohol for Lent...no Guiness this year. :sad:

    I am going to skip the potato and have extra corned beef with my cabbage for 3 days staright until it is gone and I will weigh in 1 lb lighter than last week.

    It's my favorite food in the world.

    Besides veal parmigana.

    And sushi.

    And twice baked potatoes.

    With bacon.


    PS- You all reminded me that I need to log tomorrow's meals today, starting at dinner first.

    It's looking real good for me, if I dont drink I will take that potato after all.

    A good drink that will give you a fairly good buzz that is low in calories is belvedere vodka and sprite zero. Recommended by Chelsea Handler from Chelsea Lately on E! LOL!
