Alcohol and food consumption...

vegmebuff

When I consume alcohol, I tend to get hungry and want to eat...and eat!

However, my boyfriend is the complete opposite. When he consumes alcohol, he can just keep drinking and not eat at all.

Even if we prepare dinner and we have a few before the meal, I'll be 'so' ready to eat it all up and he usually could care less about having any of it.

Curious - what about you?

When I'm drinking, I don't particularly care about food. Unlike my dad, I can/will eat while drinking, but I don't feel any particular need to and can be quite happy on beer alone. Some of the beers I prefer can practically be chewed anyway.

I made the decision to give up drinking calories while I am losing weight but mentally I connect alcohol and food and throw mindful eating out the door.

Pretty much the way I roll.

I ate less when I drank.
