    looking at your diary you have surplus cals every day even though you are drinking wine.
    you need more proptein though-so drink protein shakes as well.got to be strict with macros if alcohol in diet.
    i drink a few glasses every evening and easily loose 2lbs/week without feeling hungry.

    Thanks for all the great input. I guess I've been guilting myself for no reason. I'll just do an extra 20 minutes on the stairmaster and raise a toast to all of you, my friends on MFP! :drinker:

    My answer is WINE. While it may baffle most with my goals of being fit and healthy (and being a lean person), I DO put down one bottle of wine every night. Typically red. It's what I like, helps me relax, and works for me. When I gain weight I know it's because I have been eating like ****, not because I drink.

    ^^ this!

    champagne is lower in calories than wine... keep that in mind and just log the cals!

    Yes, but may be higher in sugar content. Not always a good trade-off.
