Ah, the siren song of carbs!
Confession time. Last night I enjoyed a few wee vodkas. So far, so good. Then it suddenly struck me that some Thornton's diabetic sweets might be a good idea. Shortly after that it further struck me that some regular dark choc (Divine brand) after-eight type chox might go down a treat. Half a box later I found myself tucking into a cherry madeira cake. Yes, readers, I ate the whole cake.
So you see a binge is never very far away once we stray. Penitent, I jumped on the scales this morning. The damage? A 2lb regain. Phew. I feared it would be much worse than that! So for the next few days I need to be very strict.
Did I enjoy the food? At the time, oh yeah! Being tipsy around food is courting disaster. Beware booze because it hits you hard and robs you of your powers of judgement. And as Jim suggests, I do feel sort of sickly and ugh today. I can't believe I ate all that.
I would love to say that I've learned a lesson but I probably haven't ha ha.
