falling off of eating plan

Lately I've been "sick" of being so rigid on everything I eat as a possible pre-D. Yesterday, I splurged on my weakness, Reese's Peanut Butter cups. I have bag of the "minis" in my fridge and usually keep it to a 2-3 piece serving every other day or so (under 20 carbs), but yesterday I had 4 pieces and few hours later, 3 pieces. I actually lost another lb. last night.

Any other Pre-D's or NEAR pre-D's ever overdo the sweet intake on occassion?? I get tired of being so watchful and like to think I am normal (which I may be as I still am not 100 % sure I AM pre-D)
.


Also, I'm going to visit some friends this weekend who love to drink. I'm afraid I will go WELL over the two light beer limit many set for yourselves. I'm guessing I'll have several diet Dr. Peppers and rum, PLUS several beers in a given evening (Maybe a glass of wine or two as well).

I used to be a big drinker in my 20's and early 30's and now really only binge drink or get drunk once or twice a year. Will that totally put my blood sugars out of whack for a long time?? Will a twice a year "bender" be that harmful??

I'm not saying to condone alcohol (over)use but darn it, I used to have fun and I hate to limit myself to just two or three beers when I visit these friends.
