Leaving Party

~Starsprinkled~
Well last time on LT I deliberately avoided ANY social situations as I thought it would make sticking to the diet that much harder. Last night was my close friend's leaving party and there was no way I could get out of it so I sucked it up and headed out anyway. I deliberately took my car so that there was no way I'd be tempted to drink and named myself Des for the evening. Sipping on bottles of water throughout the night I surprised myself by having a great time :) Nobody seemed to be getting wasted which is what I was worried about. People were just a bit tipsy and merry and very friendly! My favourite gay couple announced me the winner of the shoe competition (sparkly stilettos :)) and soooo many people complimented me on my dress and told me they wanted it!!

Purple tartan prom dress - Dresses - Womens clothing - Clearance - Debenhams

I went for that in the end...

I though I was one of those people that depended on alcohol to loosen up a bit and be more social but I'm pleased with myself for handling it well! Not going to make a habit out of it though lol

Aww, thanks people :) You're all so sweet! The dress was a steal - £60 reduced to £18! I hated it when I looked at it but my little ole granny made me try it on and it looked good and she bought it for me - bless :) Just goes to show we don't need a drink to have some fun - social situations with no alcohol are a little intimidating but we can do it kids!! xx
 
Your granny is fashion wise!! hehe
 
Lol usually she is terrible and buys me clothes only for me to feel guilty about putting them on eBay but she did well yesterday. Off to see her now actually so everyone behave ;)
 
hehe! have a nice evening x
