This Forum is great! It's nice to have a non-judgemental zone to post topics and questions relating to drinking! Thanks0

My problem is that I like to have a yummy (chocolate or vanilla) drink at night. Do you think 1 each day ( if it is in my calorie range) is OK or do you think indulging in the sweet flavored drinks will sabotage my diet in the long run?0

Oh, there are people out there that will quote you study after study about how alcohol impacts the liver and yadda, yadda, yadda, then it impacts the body's ability to metabolize fat, blah, blah, blah...
I'm not one of those people.
I say, if you're in your calorie limit, go for it. :drinker:0 -
I don't know, maybe a calorie is a calorie-it doesn't matter whether it came from carb, fat or sugar. But I am trying not to drink beer for the next three weeks. I don't know that I think beer is worse than vodka or wine, but I seem to be able to drink more of it.0

I just found this string and I am loving it. I have been part of a group called HASH for years now (I even meet my husband there). It is not illegal. the official motto of HASH is "we are a drinking club with a running problem". we get together on the weekend and run/walk (i walk) and have some beers. There is a "trail" set up to find and follow and if you break traditions you have to drink some beer. OH NO
It is great. I can drink but still get in some exercise to offset the calories.
HASH is a world wide group with a HASH house in about every major city. here is how you can find one in your area. http://half-mind.com/index.php0 -
This thread will be useful for when my French family comes to town.
Glass of wine with lunch, two different wines with dinner, and a dessert wine after...
I'm going to need a teeny tiny glass!0 -
Hey Amy...I get tomorrow off again. :happy:
It's because the busses won't start. I'm not complaining!!
I just had some hot white chocolate and vanilla with a bit of orange vodka and Irish cream. Yum!!!0 -

Hi everyone. I lost this thread for a while and glad to see it again. I DID IT!!! after 3 mos of tryimg and moderation I have been alcohol free since Jan 3 (yes, we had an awesome 3 day new year weekend :drinker: ) I think I shocked the hell out of my metabolism with that and 6 workouts a week.... lost 11 pounds! I will keep you posted on continued abstinence, aiming for 90 days.

I did it! Well, almost - if I can make it through tonight, I'll have gone for one month with no alcohol what so ever!!!
Must be the first time in 15 years I've been sober this long. Two weeks to go to reach my goal now...
Great job. This is a fabulous accomplishment. I haven't gone that long by any means & know what discipline it takes. Well done!0 -
Hey Guys,
If any of you are watching tv, the Drs. are showing you how to lose with booze! Ahhhhhhh:drinker: Highlights: Wine is better that beer for the belly. Cheap white wine has less nitrates than expensive so if you get headaches from wine, go for the cheap stuff. Lean belly shot: ginger, mint leaves, cucumbers, club soda & gin. Drink up!0 -
Well, I've just switched to dry wine as it has less calories...getting to quite like it now, in fact I'm just going to have a glass or two sitting in the sun out on the deck - what could be nicer..??? I find it i have one an hour before dinner, it curbs my apetite and i dont eat as much...and do you know that red wine is good for the heart?0
