08Jan2010 Craving KilKennys

I realllly truly wanted a drink last night. Not the usual wine fix, but a relaxing sip or three of the Irish Cream "Kilkenny". There's nothing more relaxing than sipping on some Irish Cream chilled on ice. Not a tiny weeny shot glass but a 200ml balloon. So thankfully I checked out 'the damage' I may do on WW if I consumed one brandy balloon ... and my heart shattered. TEN FRIGGIN' POINTS?????? What do you mean TEN POINTS???

Yep, according to the WW Points System 200ml of Kilkenny is 10pts, a teeny weeny shot glass is 2pts. For those not familiar with WW Points System, 10pts would normally give me 2 x Chicken & Salad Sandwiches or 5 x pieces of bread. A glass of wine is 2pts. And just to make it sound even more shocking, if I did consume a small brandy glass of Kilkenny that would be almost half my daily allowance gaaaawnski! Farewell Kilkenny ... you've been a good friend :0)

But there is good news ... I jumped on the scales this morning, fully expecting a nothing result after a loss of 2.7kg ... but I got another sweet surprise, another loss of 600grms. The scales registered 127.4kg. Since Sunday night I have supposedly lost ... wait for it .... 3.3kg. Unbelievable! I'm starting to feel like one of them "Biggest Loser" guinea pigs with their massive losses each week (which we all know is a crop of crap and very good editing by CH10!).

As each gram evaporates from my barge bum, I get a little more optimistic and energetic however I know I am a day away from a 'let down'. I know that day is close where I will throw my scales again a solid brick wall but today we 'celebrate' my very small success.

I'm still craving a Kilkenny though .....
