I LOVE my wine at night. I drink 2-3 5 oz glasses but I'm trying to have one or zero. I like it so much and will save my calories for it. It makes me so happy when I have a glass of wine in the evening. I don't enjoy it as much during the day for some reason if the girls go out for lunch or on a weekend. I have lost 3 kilo's so far or 7 pounds. So, so far I'm able to work it into my diet. I have 3 active boys that sometimes drive me crazy in the evening and the wine just makes me happier. Ha! Anyone else also love it as much as I do?

    I Iove it very much :smile: I don't drink it at home though so it's easy for me to cut back. I'll have 1-2 glasses maybe twice a week. White zin and pink moscato are my faves :smile:

    I do. And beer. And Gin. And Scotch. I try to be sure I have room for 2-3 adult beverages a day after getting close to or meeting my macro goals. A good drink is, for me, a nice way to relax after work or before bed.

    The difference is that now I fit them into my det. Before I lost my weight and got into better shape, I would drink on top of (over)eating.

    Love me some wine. If I have a few extra calories left I will imbibe and I have been known to save a few calories if I plan to be opening a nice bottle.

    What are people's favourites. We have a Riesling from a "local" vineyard. By local I mean from ontario. My husband works with the owner's daughter. Soooo good. I need to find a good red for thanksgiving this weekend.

    Did someone say "wine"? ... LoL ...I'm a red girl (rose too) .... Lambrusco and Shiraz are two of my favorites, but I'll drink anything that's not too dry ...

    Love that a whole bottle is only about 600-700 calories ...

    ETA: When I go to the bar I usulally order a vodka club w/ lime, I've found that most bar's wine selections are seriously lacking ...

    I love wine! I don't drink it often, because I would rather have food than wine. But when I go out I do drink wine over anything else!

    Oh dear yes I love wine. I have been laying off it though as I think the extra calories will slow my weight loss.

    Oooh. Good to know the calorie count of a whole bottle because I defiantly drink that at a party. That is my limit and if I drink more than that I feel pretty hung over the next day. I'm a Chardonnay fan but California wine is too expensive in China so it's from Chile or Austrilia and it's decent.

    I do, so very very much. WHY can't they invent a calorie free wine? I love my diet coke, I'm sure I could come to love the diet wine as well *implores scientists out there*

    lovee wine. I *try* to only drink once a week- I could certainly fit a glass into my calories every day, but it definitely lowers my willpower and sometimes leads to eating more than I should! I have a wine and cheese event at school tonight; I'm going to have some wine, but only a little because I need strength to resist the cheeeese!

    I love white wine, but I only have it once in a while and in moderation, or else this happens:
