Last night we had friends come over for dinner. We had wine and I did go over my limit which upset me a little but not a lot. I had 3.5 instead of 2. The reason I'm not totally bummed out is that it was over a 4 hour time period. I was eating in between, drinking slowly. I also felt in control of myself, was having a good time as the host of the evening. I would not have been able to do that months ago and I loved it. I did note on my tracker and journal this morning that I didn't take my kudzu or L. Glut. I forgot because I have not been taking that for awhile. I wonder if I would have had less last night if I'd have remembered. I wrote that down in my journal!!!! Does kudzu and l. glut. need to be taken on a daily basis or just when you're going to have a few drinks? Does it matter? If anyone can answer that, I'd appreciate it.
I had the exact similar night last night - verbatim. Same amount of AL I went over. Same situation: friends over for dinner, same exact feeling...went over my limit but was in perfect control. Also hadn't taken my kudzu or L. Glut that day...forget as well and haven't taken it long enough to know if it really makes a difference or not so I will wait for someone else's reply.
This is where the "moderation" term can be confusing. What is true moderation because it seems that it's very subjective. Someone may say they're a moderate drinker by only drinking one time a week with a goal of no more than 4 where'as I would be kicking myself for 4 thinking that's too many. Think I'll start a new thread with this one in mind so let's jump over to that one and work on this moderation question.
Hugs to you all.
