    By American standards you are definitely overdoing it (DSM-IV TR). Any doctor (in America) would tell you to cut back significantly. Have you considered moving to Spain?

    I've seen this post before.

    And coming from a girl who had her first bottle of wine on Saturday and ripped her eyelashes out of her eye, by all means continue as long as you don't over do it. Kthanks.

    You had your first whole bottle to yourself, or just your first time having wine?
  • Cut back on the wine defo....... soooooooooooo many calories if your going to have a drink you would be better of with vodka and a diet drink of some kind, far less calories and will cost you less in the long run :smile:

    You really should mix it up sometimes, drink some whiskey with a wine chaser...it's how all the classy folks do it.

    tequila has 28 cals.

    Oh, and don't forget - if you don't remember how many shots you had, you don't have to log them!

    After last weekend I say cut back on beer, not wine. I hadn't had anything but light beer since I started logging on this site until last weekend because I perfer light beer when it's hot. One bottle is way over 160 calories!?!?! Forget that. Pass me the corkscrew.

    While we're on the subject, I noticed a HUGE difference in calories from some of the major name brand wines and the "generic" database values listed here on MFP. If possible, find and log the name brand. I thought I was getting 125 calories of pinot noir, but it was more like 205 :(
