wine?

thatjeffsmith

I kicked off my health journey with a 3 month fast in the beer department. It really helped me to limit myself to 1 or 2 a few times a week instead of 2-3 every night. A small different that makes a big impact over time.

I haven't given anything up, I just trade food cals for booze cals and vice versa

3 mph walk for a mile and one glass of wine I'm ahead by 14 cals...drink drink and chase Mary!

I love it! Won't ever give it up.

Dont give up anything. Just have less, fit it into your calories and be really honest about how much you are pouring.

^ This.

Speaking from the perspective of someone who has a cellar with over 180 bottles with an app to track inventory, and who once took 6 bottles with him on a 2 week vacation (just in case I couldn't find a good wine in Hawaii)....

Me? Give up wine? Only when they pry it from my cold dead fingers.

Wine! I'm half French and have been drinking wine since I could talk, so no, I will never give up wine. That said, as I get older I definitely feel it in the morning, even if I've just had one or two glasses the night before. Since I work out at 6 am, I've cut back significantly. At first I missed it terribly -- how can you enjoy a good meal without a good wine?? But I've gotten used to it now and only drink it on the weekends. It's also a lot easier to keep to your calorie limits without 300 cals of wine to account for...

I also gave it up initially. Then slowly added it back in like once every other weekend. I'd love more but I don't want it hindering my progress :-/
