Still... It's the alcohol that's doing it.

170.6 for more than five days now, if my count is correct.

Apparently, it's not just the calories in alcohol that make it difficult to lose weight. I read something yesterday that *should* help me slow down on the drinking... Hopefully.

It says that alcohol turns to acetate in your blood and your body goes ahead and uses that for fuel first instead of fat. So basically, if you're drinking heavily every night, it doesn't matter how much starving or working out you do... You're pretty much gonna be stuck while your body burns through acetate instead of your fatty fatty fat. Lovely.

So last night, I made an effort to avoid getting shitfaced. That means only about seven or eight strong vodka drinks (100 proof) instead of about fifteen. Ha. I'm such an alkie and it's not okay.

Crap. I've been awake for an hour and I haven't eaten breakfast. Way to jump start the ol' metabolism, P.D.! NOT.

Stay lovely, lovelies.

  1. PD! It's been so long <3. Congratulations on your new baby! I'm sure that's hectic. Looking through my follow list, only about four of the hundred-ish blogs I follow still post.
    Hope you're as well as can be!
