I mentioned in the other, similar post, that I've never been much of a drinker - except for a few wild runs in University.
I've just never been able to cope with just how horrible it made me feel.
Now, I really just can't tolerate it. And, I mean right away. One drink is about it. (which really stinks, because I do enjoy a nice glass of white wine, a gin and tonic or a fruity Marguerita!)
I feel crumby pretty much right away. It's just not enjoyable.
And if I do manage to get past one drink, let me tell you, it's more than a hang over; it's a week of decreased health that just isn't worth it. Fatigue, pain, general malaise.
I've deduced that it is all blood sugar related. It's the same affect I get when I overdo the sugars and carbohydrates. Makes sense to me.
But I'm sure everyone's body reacts uniquely.
Next up "medicinal cocktail hour" on our income taxes?
