drunken eating :(

so apparently last night after consuming copious amounts of alcohol...i was STARVING--because i woke up this morning to 3 empty bags of doritos (i never would eat these sober) and a Snickers bar (yet again something i would never eat soberrr)

 

gah...ill never lose weight :(

I have been having some issues with that as well, although I haven't been consuming copious amounts of alcohol.  So here's my suggestion: don't drink THAT much.  Partake, certainly, but not to the point that you have to wait to wake up to remember what you ate last night...

And second, keep bags of 94% fat free popcorn on hand.  They are about 225-250 calories for the entire bag, which isn't too bad, not compared to what, 300 for the snickers bar, at least 450 for the dorito bags, maybe more depending on how many servings were in each one?

One binge day a week isn't going to kill your diet- as long as you behave the rest of the week. 

yeah, normally i'm not one to drink a whole lot...i even will fill my beer can with water and make it look as though i am drinking haha. but idk what was up with last night. i definately plan on not letting it happen again. thanks for the advicee

If you're drinking that much booze, you're probably dehydrating yourself.  Remember, the brain can confuse the signals for thirst and hunger.

If you are drinking so much you don't remember what you did that is a bigger problem than eating too much!

Alcohalic drinks are killer calorie-wise, and bingeing while you're drinking doens't help that.  I only drink when I've lost seven pounds at a time so it doesn't pile up.

Did you eat a decent meal before you went out?? Ive had those nights when I think I can skimp on the food in exchange for some good drinks only to be starving when the bars are closed. I think its somewhat common, Taco Bell created a whole meal slogan dedicated to the late night drinking crowd. I wouldn't worry about it and next time you go out eat some good food and drink lots of water while your out and when you get home so your mind can stay on the right track when it comes to snacking! =D
