I discovered this site called The Daily Plate. At first I was just using it to find the nutrition facts for foods (which I then transfer to my FitDay software) but I've found SO MUCH INACCURATE INFORAMTION that I've started editing items (since I have absolutely nothing else to do with my time). I was browsing the groups today and came acros the Eating Disorder Recovery Group and I thought I'd join but I'm looking at the front page and there are several people who have eaten less than 200 calories and I about want to scream! How people are supposed to recover that way...I have no idea. There's also a So & Nor CAL group which I might join but even there, I'm looking at the list and right now none of the members even has up to 1500 calories. As much as I want to lose a few pounds HEALTHFULLY, if I viewed these pages in my quest to do that, I'd be in big trouble. This is definitely the sort of thing I'll have to do on my own.
As I've mentioned a million times before, I don't drink unless you count the ONE Margarita I have per year or less when the event is too overwhelming to attend completely sober. For example, my cousin's rehearsal dinner AT MY HOUSE in 2005, Easter at my cousin's house in 2006, the "family reunion" Christmas again at my house in 2000, I think you get the point. That side of the family doesn't do ANYTHING sober and sometimes the only way to survive is to join in. Well, today I tried X-Rated Fusion (www.drinkpinkvodka.com). I'm not saying it was BAD, in fact it was quite a hit. I just REALLY don't like that warm feeling when you swallow alcohol like that. I also tried Pallini Limoncello (www.pallini.us). All I have to say is it SMELLED really good, like lemonade, but it really just tasted like vodka. 52-proof is definitely too much for me. I was so worried, I almost chickened out. At least I know I'm not missing anything by not drinking. I had a horrible headache after only two sips of the X-Rated Fusion. My mother, however, LOVED the flavor. The Limoncello I'm afraid to say bombed big time, though it may be because this group just doesn't have a taste for liqueurs like that. Beer, wine, and margaritas are the usual drink of choice. The party ended many hours ago and they're still here, probably still drinking too, less my cousin who's pregnant. All I want to do is go out and find something carby to eat, like Lean Cuisine Cheese Pizza but that isn't going to happen with them here.
Wedding: 13 days away.
