I actually would eat a fairly healthy meal, and just drink more. "The veggies and fruit and lean protein will offset the effects of the alcohol". Self-rationalization at it's worst.
That was me for sure. You know I'd get so drunk and then so drunk the next day I'd smell of booze. Could I smell it? Nope. i didn't think I smelled at all and my landlord kindly asked if I was going to have a shower soon because I smelled bad. I never wore cologne myself because I thought I smelled normal. Of course a hot summers day and I'd be pissed drunk and then go to the bar without a shower and when I sat down I'd order a drink and the manager there would come over and ask if I had anything to drink and I would say no and he wasn't fooled. TOld me to come back tomorrow once I sober up because he couldn't be held responsible to serve me drunk. I'm sure he smelled the booze sweating out of my pores because I was on a 4 day binge with no food or water so the only sweat that came out was alcohol.

Yeah I think that was me who said about not eating. I didn't. I drank straight to keep the effect. I"M SOOOO happy today that I don't do that anymore. Today I went out to a movie and lunch with my brother and we so happened to go into the place I loved to drink which was Boston Pizza and we sat in the bar... under his recommendation because they serve quicker there. I was a bit uncomfortable but held everything together. Not once did I think to drink even in my old drinking hole. Nope. Sat there drank diet pepsi and ate pizza. god bless for being sober
