Hungover? Sweat it out!
Monday. 9.7.15 3:35 pm
Last night I hung out with a few friends for a round of 5 Tribes, and Cards Against Humanity. Alcohol was introduced in to the second game and it was pretty amazing. We're all horrible people, and the cards drawn and chosen were proof enough of that; if anyone ever actually needs proof, anyway.

Because I'd only had one thing to eat the entire day, the few bottles of beer that I had {two of the taller bottles from Elysian Brewery: one at 6.3% and the other at 8.1% and a bottle of a 5.6% Oktoberfest kind} made me quite cozy. We all hung out longer than we normally would have so that the two of use who needed to drive home could do so without being intoxicated.

This morning I woke up with a slight hangover and I was quite reluctant to go to the gym, but I decided to stick with it ... and pray that I didn't puke. A friend of mine, who's recently starting going to the gym himself, calls it "rise and grind." I like that phrase; it's fitting. I asked him what kind of advice he had for going to the gym with a hangover and he said to run until I puke, then keep going because it had only been 30 seconds. I laughed harder at that than I probably should have ...

I took it a little easier than I have been. I only ran for 35 minutes and only went 2.49 miles. I was sweating quite a bit more than normal, despite taking it back a notch, so I'm thinking that my body was sweating out all the toxins still left behind. I didn't puke, I only had one side stitch episode, and I felt pretty damn good afterwards. I think if I'd consumed more than the alcohol I did, the gym would not have been possible this morning so I'm thankful I limited myself.

After the shower, I hung out for about 30 minutes before going back out to the store and then to my friend's workplace to hang out for their little Labor Day "BBQ." I say it that way because it was inside an office and someone brought in their George Foreman grill to use for the hot dogs. I only ate some pasta salad and a hot dog. I let them keep the bag of chips that I didn't even try because I know that if I'd taken them home, I would have eaten the whole thing in a matter of days. With as well as I'm doing with the weight loss right now, I don't need more temptations than necessary. It's already going to be difficult enough with another potluck for lunch on Thursday and happy hour afterwards the same day.

It's a short work week, though, since we're off today for the holiday so I'm definitely happy about that. I'm also pretty happy with the progress I've made so far. I still have a long way to go before I reach my goal, but it's nice seeing results.

Until next time. . .
