Last night was my 1st Christmas party on this new WOE. My husband & I have been on Adkins four weeks today. I wasn't worried at all about staying on plan because I feel so committed to this way of eating. What I wasn't prepared for, though, was how I felt not having something to drink (alcohol) ! I'm not a big drinker at all, and hubby and I have a rather dull social life, but I used to occasionally have a drink - my favorites being champagne or espresso vodka on rocks. Not on a regular basis, but usually at family gatherings, parties that kind of thing. The food at the cocktail party all looked and smelled delicious, but that didn't even bother me that I couldn't eat 95% of the foods. I made sure to take something we could eat (shrimp), not knowing what else safe would be available to eat.
The not eating part was no problem....the not having a drink, wasn't so easy, but I trudged through.
I stayed on plan ! It felt kind of crappy last night, but today I am so glad I didn't stray.
