gonna get back into exercising once my ankle heals and see about losing 3 - 10lbs. id like to go for 10-13, but if I get much below my current weight i lose too much from my face. 3 can be done though and would be good. im back to intermittent fasting now too ^^ which is why I am still awake ^^;;
plan to do some biking, calisthenics/pilates and reads because I think they are near and they feel fantastic even though I don't move much weight ^^; need to tighten my upper back too. i have a minor kyphosis creeping in again from sitting at desk ;n; gotta fix the ankle though first.

A binge drinker can go months without drinking a drop, but then go on a hardcore session of 20 shots in one night drinking to the point they reach near alcohol poisoning flying off the rails like a mad person. Binge drinking is extremely dangerous and this type of drinker can't stop once they down one drink. Habitual alcoholics can and will drink continuously on a daily basis, obviously this is not healthy behavior either but the pattern of how these two types of alcoholics drink is very different from one another. I tend to binge drink and so as I have gotten older learned the hard way that it's best I just not have any drink at all. All it takes is the thought or feeling of wanting to get drunk and once I drink one beer or shot that day is done. The worst is the recovery after a drinking session due to the sheer amount of alcohol I will drink. These binges can create other problems, typically I won't even remember much of the later points of the binge and I have done really crazy things that I ended up regretting. Alcohol is a dirty nasty drug, and it's hilarious it's embraced yet weed is vilified as well as other drugs that are far less damaging. On a side note, the worst withdrawals I have ever seen in the jail were from alcohol. I seen many heroin addicts go through withdrawals, and as bad as they are the withdrawal process of alcohol beats it hands down. It's a longer process, and much scarier when trying to manage them due to the alcoholic having severe hallucinations and becoming very aggressive. The behavior of a years long alcoholic withdrawing from alcohol is identical to a schizophrenic having an extremely manic episode of hallucinations. They hear and see things not there, and they become very combative you can't even communicate with them properly. At first when they start up, the first thing we do is refer them to mental health and place them in a single cell. Then the mental health director will have to watch and evaluate them over time to determine if they are a "mental" or going through alcohol withdrawals. After a week or so, they come back to earth if it's alcohol withdrawals whereas if they are suffering from mental health issues obviously the behavior will probably go on for much longer until prescribed meds help.

I walked into the Starbucks I frequently visit and the lady I know asked me where was I two days ago? They could have used me. I laughed and said why? She said a guy with delirium tremens signed himself out of the hospital AMA, had a seizure, and cracked his head open on the floor. I giggled and told her I'm sorry I missed that.
Legitimate alcohol withdrawal / DTs , which I have experienced when I was younger after a Vegas bender, is very serious. We didn't stop drinking for 4 days straight. This is before I had any medical knowledge. When I came home I couldn't sleep for 48-72 hours, tremors, and hallucinations. So I called my buddy up who was in his residency at the time I'm like dude what the fuck is going on with me? He's like you're going through some serious alcohol withdrawal. So I googled alcohol withdrawal treatment and naturally Valium popped up. But I didn't have access to Valium. I knew my grandmother had some Xanax though. Popped that mother fucker and never slept so good in my life. I couldn't imagine going another day in that state. It took a while before I gave up alcohol for good. And I'm pretty open about my alcoholism. I, like Lhance, don't control my drinking very well once I start. It feels so good when it hits the lips. Unlike a lot of people, I'm able to be around it no problem. I have beer in the fridge and a full bar for company. But I've always had pretty good will power. It only goes to shit when I start drinking. Quitting boozing was one of the best thing I ever did. I feel fucking fantastic every day I wake up. Most importantly for me I like being reliable at a moments notice. You can't do that fucked up. And Jesus Christ do I not miss having a hangover. Edit: To keep this thread on track, I had an awesome workout this morning. It will most likely be the last one this week before my snowboarding trip. I might do some cardio tomorrow or Friday morning, we'll see how tired I am after work tonight or Thursday. When I get back I plan on really bulking up some. Excited for that.

Stick to coffee, tea and water. Alcohol is the devil.
