image by edinburgeats.co.uki haven't blogged in a while because i had to travel and then i still had to work when we got back. anyway, i'm back!
this post is in connection with the trip. you see, i made a new year's resolution to lessen my dessert intake and to not drink coke anymore. i tried my best to accomplish the two and i did. much as i love cakes and chocolates and coke, i really avoided it. i stuck to water and ate a piece of candy if i craved something sweet. if i had to drink a beverage other than water, i chose iced tea instead. my mom even said "we'll see" when i told her of my resolution because she knows how much i love coke and desserts.
however, on this trip, the bf wanted to test me. he would order coke zero when we ate because his doctor it was okay. because i only drank water, he would ask me to finish off his drink. i vehemently say no but he insists and says there's no sugar anyway. i had to drink part of it. ugh! what's worse is that i had to eat dessert. i have always said i don't particularly love seafoods. well on one occassion (still on this trip), we ate at a seafood restaurant. the bf couldn't eat anything fried so we had grilled blue marlin, grilled squid and tinolang lapu-lapu. i wasn't completely satisfied with the meal since i wanted to eat pork or beef. to fill my hunger, i got dessert which was icebox cake. it was sinfully delicous and i felt totally content after.
on the trip home, i was kind of sad knowing i broke my resolution. but it's not as if i had a choice, so i didn't think of it anymore. unfortunately, i was rudely reminded of my transgression when i woke up in the middle of the night with a very sore throat. i couldn't sleep properly and had to take medication to lessen the pain. as of now, i'm back to the diet and i intend to stick with it. promise!
