Hmmm
It's Friday night. I caught a train to Aberdeen this morning at 7.41. Arrived in Aberdeen about 12. Worked. Got the 5 to 6 train home. Got home at 9 pm. Cracked open a bottle of Jacob's Creek leftover from Hoggers.
FOUR DAYS WITHOUT A GLASS OF WINE.
Americans would call me an alcoholic, I am sure. (My American weird religious rellies anyway.) I call me a hard-working career gal who actually doesn't think she has a whole lot to worry about.
2008 is going to be the year I don't give a shit about my weight. (And therefore will probably become a size 10 just through spite.)

You're starting the year off on a great foot!
I can't remember the last day I went four days without some kind of alcohol. My family thinks I'm a heavy drinker. I like to think I'm more about frequency than volume, but I suppose that's debatable by those parties you mentioned.
I'm starting it properly on Monday... you with me?
Aubs - a Vegas champagne bar - so much more glamtastic than the catering trolley on the train home from Aberdeen which serves warm wine 113ml at a time at £4.50 a go.
Fitsy - hot diggity.
RG - I know, I know. Instead of beating yourself up (which you shouldn't because you are super fit and committed to these races you're doing) you can berate me for being lazy, slack-willed and a big fat cow. How does that sound? Seriously, I did the detox for 3 days and have lost 3 pounds. That'll do me for now. Fruit and veg at the moment in Scotland is so poo it's not worth eating. The detox was easier when I did it in September and everything was pretty delicious. I am still not eating chocolate or cake for the whole of January, and I think I will keep off the wine whenever I can. Anyway, I feel no guild about drinking two glasses of wine last night. I did a 16-hour day travelling and working yesterday, and since there wasn't any crack in the house I had to relax SOMEHOW when I got home. ;-)
Sod a January detox - why make a miserable month more miserable?
I reckon your attitude towards your bod/food/exercise is spot on, Gamba. Do what feels right. You big high-flying executive, you.
In other news, LT-Girl has just informed me that she has put her back out. She claims she put on so much weight on our Moroccanholiday ( a damned lie - I ate more than her and haven't put on much, if anything) that she has dislocated all her vertebrae trying to pull on her jeans. I suspect she is exaggeratin'.
