Hi, Im three days old to this site

ramosriley

Even as a newcomer I've lost 2 pounds, mainly because this site makes it easy to break down every thing I put in my mouth. I honestly have so many questions, like How do I convert an alcohol drink into oz and because of it's calories I skip a meal (my best friend just made me ask that) or do I add bites of food, like a bite of a chicken breast? I truly just need moral support and a buddy.

3 teaspoons is 1 tablespoon
8 ounces is 1 cup
16 ounces is 2 cups which is 1 pint
32 ounces is 4 cups which is 2 pints which is 1 quart
128 ounces is 16 cups which is 8 pints which is 4 quarts which is 1 gallon-

hope that helps
also don't every substitute a meal for alcohol. you wouldn't get the nutrition you need

Hello that's my advice as well, always eat, plus if you are drinking it's best to go for white spirits, gin and vodka have less calories than rum for example. I work for a drinks company and rum is basically made from Sugar the others grain and or wheat.I don't deny myself but I just make sure that if I've over indulged one day I will take it easier the next day or two and get of the bus or tube a stop early so I walk a bit more that day. It's best to do calorie cycling it provides the same amount of calories per week, but 'tricks' your body by constantly changing daily calories which helps to prevent or break plateaus. :happy:
