[SpecialOFFER]

Went to a wedding reception last night. I went knowing I would cheat, but do so in a limited controlled fashion.

Well I did and had a large rum and diet coke that I nursed all evening. After that I switched to water. I also ate some bbq brisket and pulled pork, after hunting around for lean-ish pieces. I skipped the sauce, which is usually full of sugar and carbs. Got home at 1AM and crashed. I was completely sober by that time since I had the drink at 7PM.

I woke up and had a hangover like a chimpanzee on a crack cocaine binge, ketostix showed deep purple and I was down 2 lbs on the scale. Whoa. Lemon juice/carbonated water/Truvia cocktail killed the headache, P2 Chili in my belly and I finally feel decent.

Not interested in doing that again but I thought the 'experiment' interesting. I'm guessing the 2lbs was due water weight drop (dehydtation) and the ketostix purple was a combination of dehydration and extra fat in my bloodstream by the meat.

Will post tomorrow to see what my 2 day weight is (one day of misbehaving and one day of behaving).
