    So do you think my love of booze screws up weight loss?

    It's fine to love your booze, just don't LOVE your booze, because then it could become a protein shake.

    Alcohol should go back to being banned. It ruins marriages and children's lives. It's not something to celebrate nor is it something to brag about. Alcohol kills. It'sa joke and it blows my mind how many people are on here asking what kind of alcohol they can drink so they can continue to drink and still lose weight.

    I so can not wait until they ban Ignorance. Its not the Alcohol you asshat. Its the people that abuse it with the livers.

    As long as you calorie count it, absolutely not. Try to stick to liquor over beer though, more % alcohol, less calories

    Right ok, soo alot of people are saying that you can drink alcohol and still loose weight if ur under your calories.. So in other words, if i ate 1400 cals a day of lard, or 1400 cals a day of nutritious food i will loose weight on either one of them?! ....no! Its WHAT you put into your body that will help you too loose weight! Even if u are under your calories, alcohol isnt nutritious for you! Sorry you can all call me a bit.ch but i really dont care, ive learnt that if i stay under my cals yet eat crisps, chocolate, carbs etc i wont loose weight, whereas if im under my cals and eat plenty of fruit n veg, protien, a little carbs then i will loose weight :)

    Perhaps you should read the rest of my replies before you use an immature name like "asshat"...

    It kind of does:

    Alcohol slows the metabolism down which makes the rate of calorie burn slow right down. More importantly, it directly affects the liver. The liver is the primary organ that aids fat burning.

    After you've had a bit of a session (drink wise) the liver goes into overdrive and desperately tries to rid the body of the toxins of alcohol FIRST, that anything eaten as well will take a 'back seat' and may end up stored as fat. In fact, if you go to the gym 'the morning after' the body will burn off the alcohol first, then the carbs, then fat stores.

    In moderation, probably not so bad, but it REALLY truly does have to be in moderation.

    Sorry, but you are wrong. This is a very basic concept and spreading misinformation doesn't help. If you ate 1400 calories a day worth of lard, beer and chocolate, you would still lose weight. You would end up with other health problems eventually, sure, but you'd lose weight. There's just no way around it.

    There are many, many people here (including myself) who have lost significant weight while including alcohol in our diets. Account for the calories just like you would account for anything else you eat/drink and you'll be fine.

    The problem is alcohol take priority over your macros, so when you drink, try not to eat with it, because the alcohol is what's going to burn before the fat or carbs. If you're going to drink, keep it in your calories, meet your macros for the day, and enjoy in moderation. Unless you're a body builder or competing, going out to drink once or twice a week won't hurt your progress too much as long as you do it right and factor those calories in. Go hard in the gym the next day too
