Hangover and Resolutions

Well, I did pretty well this week with my goals. I had some weaknesses with eating and drinking sensibly, but nothing too major. I worked out every day, and got my 5+ servings of fruits and veggies.

My downfall was last night. Just for the record, if you see me starting to drink liquor, just slap me. I think it's just not worth it for me. I never set out to get drunk - last night I even drank pop and water for the first part of the night, considering not drinking at all. But of course, I did, and paid for it at the end of the night and today. I puked and cried like a little baby last night, and Caleb was so insanely sweet while taking care of me. I was humiliated (we stayed at a friend's house in Mason City, so they got to see me as a mess), and I feel like shit today. I have been able to hold food down, but I've been super tired and nauseous all day. I hate it. Today was my first day of not working out this week, because I was so sick. But I ate so little, I bet my weight will reflect it somewhat on Monday. Sad, but it's the only upside to being hungover.

Reflecting on last night, I think I might propose two New Year's Resolutions for 2011:
  • Do not drink to excess
  • Be less judgmental
The first seems like a no-brainer, but for some reason it's been hard for me lately. I need to be more conscious of what I'm drinking, pace myself, drink more water, etc. The second will be harder, and will be the one I probably forget the most, but I need to start by not judging people vocally, and hopefully my thoughts will follow. I know I mostly judge because I'm jealous of someone, or feel insecure about myself, or I'm just being bitchy. It's a hard habit to break, but I'll be better for it if I just try.
