Ooopsie
So, I go out with my husband last night (something we almost never do), and we decide to stop for a drink. Now, I know there are a lot of hard liquers that have close to zero carbs, so I decide to go with my old standby, Ameretto, and DIET coke. I was really enjoying my drink, especially beacause while on Atkins I eat a lot less, so I was feeling my "one" drink very quickly. I was just marveling at how good it tasted . As I finished, my husband said, "How's your drink?". I told him how good it was....It was perfect, mixed just right, smooth, nutty and.....SWEET!?!?!?!? AAAAAAAHHHHHH.....What did I do???? I decided not to worry about it...I definitely didn't have another one. When I got home, I looked it up. Sure, enough Ameretto has 17g of carbs per ounce (and if you asked me, I think there was more than an ounce in my drink). Oh well, the irony, I'm down a pound this morning. We will have to wait and see what happens the next couple of days. Live and learn!!!
