“You were drinking tonight.” It wasn’t a question, but I felt like I was being reprimanded. “I needed to drink, Rhodes.” He paused, switching to my left foot. “I get that, but alcohol isn’t going to help you reach your goal,” he said sternly. “I’m not saying you can’t ever drink, but it shouldn’t be often. And when you do, try drinking the low-calorie vodka and water. It doesn’t taste as good, but it still works the same and it won’t crush your nutrition for the day.”
I needed to drink because I've been convinced eating is a bad coping mechanism, even though my body needs food and doesn't ever need alcohol.
