OK. Last nite i went out with my friends and wasn't going to drink. ive been good lately and have been drinking water and being the DD ,but I ran into an old friend of mine, who just got back from over seas and was my old partner at a different P.D. He asked me to have one shot with him for old times. The problem is when i drink with him, we drink one rite after another.:drinker: and get in trouble, so 5 shots of petrone 2 jack and cokes and 7 michelobe lights later apeice ,we ended up at dennys for a double cheese burger and hash browns covered in gravy and cheese.

Should i even try to calculate the calories or just forget that nite ever happened. On a positive note we did walk (stumble):laugh: to dennys and back and did stay on the dance floor most of the night.

Just so u know i did pay for my other friends cab rides home. Any body else have these nites.

    LOL I'll go drinking with you any night!! Convince you to DD, get you to drink, and then guilt you into buying me a cab ride!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    I never have the willpower so I always work out extra hard to leave like 600 calories left over. Then I try and keep it ~around~ there... although yes sometimes I go over and I just leave some calories on the table the rest of the week...

    Don't bother to try to log that. You might break MFP :wink:

    Chalk that one up to spectacular memories (since you seem to remember most of the evening, amazingly enough!) with a buddy you haven't seen in forever.

    Enjoy life.:drinker:
    Hop back in the wagon. :bigsmile:

    I only paid for the cab ride because i was the dd and def wasnt driving and neither were they. Me and my buddy through our keys in the bed of my truck and slept in the cabs until about 8 in the morning. Thank god for quad cabs. One of my partners that worked outside the bar last nite said they drove by and checked on us from time to time and that the pictures will come later.:wink:

    I log those odd nights -- gives me perspective into what I really ate and drank.
    Don't worry about it though, it was a one-off night. It'll be just fine..... sounds like you had a good time?!?!

    How was the hangover -- that's usually a deterrent for me (for a little while anyway).:ohwell:

    WHAT THE...:noway:

    NO HANGOVER?

    WOW! I went out with the girls a few weeks ago and had two margaritas and was feeling it BIG TIME and woke up with a crapy headache:sick: (yeah I know...lightweight!) I felt bad about drinking and so I tried to do my 3 mile jog...:laugh: yeah...wasn't going to happen. I was dragging A-S-S to say the least!

    It sounds like you had a great time. I wouldn't worry about it too much. It will probably just make your workout seem harder but oooooh the memories of a good time like that are priceless!


    Take care Party Animal!

    Wow. Not sure if you're lucky or not lucky :laugh: .

    I would say if it becomes a regular thing, you might want to log it. That might keep you in check. But if it was a fluke, let it go and get back on the wagon today. I find that it sets me back too much to have a "bad night", especially as I have gotten older. It takes me days to get a spring back in my step. So, I pretty much stick to one glass of wine on a Saturday night and leave it at that.

    Oh yeah, we want to see those pics when your friend gets them to you. :laugh:

    the ONLY thing that keeps me from getting drunk :drinker: every night is the fact that I get a massive hangover :smokin: followed by 1 week of nasua:devil: and 2 wks of well the d word :sick: .

    The good thing is I usually lose 10 pounds! :wink:

    My kids figured it out and I get drunk every 2 years. My oldest son said it takes me that long to forget how I felt the LAST time!!!! :cry: :brokenheart:

    Chalk it up to yesterday and move on! :embarassed:

    ...I had a similar experience last night.
    many drinks and then I came home and made waffles....
    and this morning when i felt like i'd been hit with a ton of bricks i went to lunch and ate tons of southern casserole type food...

    I feel pregnant with casserole.
    ...but it SURE WAS FUN!!!

    I was going to say you prolly can still hear the train in your head but since you don't get hangover's...lucky you! :drinker:

    Dust yourself off...fan the alcohol fumes seeping thru your skin...and hop right back on your wagon!:flowerforyou:
