[SpecialOFFER]

Went to a wedding reception last night. I went knowing I would cheat, but do so in a limited controlled fashion.

Well I did and had a large rum and diet coke that I nursed all evening. After that I switched to water. I also ate some bbq brisket and pulled pork, after hunting around for lean-ish pieces. I skipped the sauce, which is usually full of sugar and carbs. Got home at 1AM and crashed. I was completely sober by that time since I had the drink at 7PM.

I woke up and had a hangover like a chimpanzee on a crack cocaine binge, ketostix showed deep purple and I was down 2 lbs on the scale. Whoa. Lemon juice/carbonated water/Truvia cocktail killed the headache, P2 Chili in my belly and I finally feel decent.

Not interested in doing that again but I thought the 'experiment' interesting. I'm guessing the 2lbs was due water weight drop (dehydtation) and the ketostix purple was a combination of dehydration and extra fat in my bloodstream by the meat.

Will post tomorrow to see what my 2 day weight is (one day of misbehaving and one day of behaving).

knobby, that is interesting. I've been flirting with having a drink or two but fear how my body would react. Think I'll stay away from the alcohol.
Thanks for posting.

I've tried drinking four times.

First was a glass of wine, didn't like the taste, didn't finish.
Second was a martini, it was so sweet and tasted like cough syrup, didn't finish.
Third and Fourth were wine and like you both times I woke up with a whopper of a headache. The first headache, I didn't attribute to the wine, so did it again, second time around --I know it's the wine.

Yeah drinking while on HCG doesn't mix... I always get insanely sick when I drink & I am quite the professional drinker! Dr Siemons used this diet back in the day to cure alcoholism... so there has to be a something to it!
