Alcohol, caffeine and Benedryl really get to me now...

I am sitting in the Barnes and Noble right now. I got a tall Cinnamon Dolce Latte and I am shaking from the caffeine. I used to get the grande with an extra shot of espresso and had no problem at all going to bed a hour later... I have only lost about 30 pounds but caffeine is killing me now...

I also took some Benedryl last week and the normal dose knocked me out. I got a great night's sleep but I seriously could not keep my eyes open. 

I am careful when I drink to not actually get drunk. I don't like getting wasted. I can usually drink three or four drinks and be more or less fine. Last night I had two and it was too much... I got a little loud and rowdy!

All of this was a more or less unexpected effect of weight-loss. Not sure why it did not occur to me sooner that this would happen.

  1. love Benadryl. though it kinda makes me antsy now, so I try not to take it. (not that I actually take it often in the first place. just sayin'...)
