Spirits

by martineangeline @ 24. Jun 2008 - 21:13:53

The thing I'm struggling with about this diet is that it makes you FEEL.

Although it is strongly rumoured that a cup of tea will cure ANY problem sometimes this is just not true.

There are times when a good stiff vodka, a glass of whiskey or a big glass of crisp white wine is NEEDED.

Because the things you FEEL are just too big to deal with.

I'm not talking about getting into a drunken stupor because of course at some point the next day when you sober up the feelings would still be there.

I just mean that on receiving difficult news or when your head is stuck in a difficult place a good strong spirit can help settle the nerves.

BUT of course due to calorific content vodka, wine and whiskey are all out. So I guess I'll keep on drinking the tea with a dash of skimmed milk and hope that the tea can at least dilute the horrible feelings enough for me to sort my head out soon.

I always thought it was evil that something you drink has calories. Surely all liquid should be calorie free. But then if that was the case I'd be pureeing and melting everything. How about a nice hot soak in the bath?

I agree - all liquids should be calorie free. Especially clear liquids like vodka/barcardi.
As for the bath...I don't think I'll ever have a bath again.
That is how my friend died. One minute a healthy 28 yr old getting on with her life. Next minute she had a seizure in the bath and drowned in the bath water. Madness.

I'm sure I read somewhere that if you mix vodka with bacardi that the calories dont count! Sounds like the bath idea is definitely out then, sorry hun. Maybe dig out one of your favourite films or CDs, short of meditating in a big open field I can't think of many other relaxing things to do.

Nice one! Gonna mix vodka with Barcardi and watch series 6 box set of Sex and The City on DVD. Good thinking!
