Everyone kept trying to get me to try different kinds, that I just hadn't found the one I liked yet. (Free drinks? Yes, please!) But up until I won the contest, I didn't like any beer. That's right. Up until I found out that I was going to be able to get the band, I didn't care about beer and then a friend suggested a kind that I ended up loving.<br /><br />Since I didn't get to have it for very long before I started implementing the tools for pre-op, I don't think I'll miss it that much. I also DON'T do wine. And I'm from right next to wine country of California. Ha. That movie Sideways where they go to all the vineyards? They're a short drive from where I live. They even have tours designed around that damn movie now.<br /><br />I need my Xanax for my anxiety issues. I just finally got into a regulated spot with them, so I don't want to go backwards, although Dr Billy did warn me that my dosage might not have to be as high as it is now (I take 2 milligrams at night to help with sleeping and one in the afternoon if I have a really bad day). I'll have to wait and see. <br /><br />And the "herbal refreshments" as Cher from Clueless would put it? Yeah, that's where I started binging as an adult and then forgetting to purge because I'd passed out asleep. Many of my friends are very pro-420 (that's us Californians for you) but they're so much better at not overeating than I am. <br /><br />The drinking, I'm right with you on. Long line of functional alcoholics, so my tolerance is insane. My poor skinny boyfriend is plopped out after a couple of drinks while I'm shaking the glass and asking why they water down everything.

However, I agree - the calories in the long run aren't worth it. I do still have my glass of wine - but I've definitely cut back to primarily weekends!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09272835472155583191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1746868749311455784.post-2900842859634534262009-05-27T20:00:22.361-05:002009-05-27T20:00:22.361-05:00We can't have beer?
