Cuckoo Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 So I went out on Saturday night and I'm actually quite proud of myself. We'd gone to the pub for dinner. I wasn't too concerned about what to eat as I'd done pretty well throughout the week but I knew that I had to watch what I drank. I'd gone for 'one' drink after work on Thursday and 5 or 6 large glasses of wine later I was stumbling home. Not good. I think I had an epiphany and realised that I don't like being drunk. I hate not being able to see straight or be in control of my own body. So Saturday night I drank 2 single amaretto and lemonades in the pub. One before dinner and one with dinner. Then we moved onto another bar while we waited for a friend and I ordered a lemonade. Possibly the first time I have ever ordered a non-alcoholic drink in a bar. We did move on to another place after that where I had a pint of cider but then the rest of the night I drank water. I'm pretty damn pleased, especially as my boyfriend definitely had more than just 4 drinks. I was also pleased that it meant I could wake up early and head to the gym while he was sleeping off his hangover.

Epsilonx2 Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Great job!! One of the hardest parts of being social as a full-time volunteer has been the copious amounts of beer.
