Not the end of the world and as cracker has mentioned, draw a line under it and carry on.

My problem wasn't just drinking more than I had allowed for but the act of drinking would loosen my resolve and I would then eat more as well. Hopefully that didn't happen to you.

As with all situations where we have setbacks, the next step is to plan how to prevent it from happening again or mitigate against it. What I mean by that is, if you know you're going to drink more at the next party then maybe reduce your calories during the day. Of course, that in itself can be problematical when we eat too little before drinking :O There's always different routes and we each have to find out what works best for us.

Good luck!

I'm fighting my battle with the wine too at the moment and hopefully this time I'm winning it... with a bit of help from a friend I found who is definitely down to earth and worth listening to! :) He does a diary and a thing on youtube which I found and it's been a great help! Problem with the wine is that you eat far too many "treats" and on top of that the wine is "empty calories!" Anyway Maurpc best of luck with your journey! :)
