beer bloat!
I was out to a hockey game this weekend and had dinner and drinks before the
game with friends. The original plan was to eat at a pub which always means limited vegetarian choices for me. I was very happy when someone suggested a Mediterranean restaurant instead. It was so yummy and much better than the artery-clogging nachos I would have been stuck with at the pub. I planned on having 3 beers (haven't had beer in ages). Halfway through the second beer I started to feel very bloated and uncomfortably full. I gave the rest of my beer to DH and went for some water. I felt so full all night, all I wanted to do was go home and lay down -- or barf LOL. I don't think I've ever felt like that after one and a half beers before and although it tasted quite nice I think it will be a while before I desire a brew again. Since I had planned on nachos and 3 beers I came out under my cal limit for the day, but I was way too bloated to even think about eating anything else. It continues to amaze me that I can still eat things that before I would have considered "forbidden" and still lose weight -- all it takes is a little preplanning. The concept is so simple, I don't know why it wasn't so obvious to me before! I happily report a 2lb drop this week.
