    I'm here to gain weight and sometimes- only sometimes! - use alcohol to make up the last 100-200 calories of my goal. Seems to work for me so I'd assume the opposite would also apply (for me at least)
    It definitely affects my quality of sleep though. And makes me crave salty things like nuts. Fine for me but less so for someone wanting to lose.

    I had the following in my diary in 2012 ; BREAKFAST / LUNCH /DINNER/SNACKS/DRINKS... I managed to lose 80lbs and drank a LOT of alcohol. But stayed in calorie restrictions. I did however switch to red wines/lighter beers/champagne/straight liquor. Frankly, I had an alcohol problem and have been completely sober now for 3 years. But as far as that went, I drank heavily , ran a lot, ate healthy, and dropped a whopping 80 pounds. Meh, not recommeneded.. but it can be done.

    Shots of hard liquor is my go to. Way less empty calories and no hangovers in the morning.
