i drink about 2 times a week it's usually liquor on the rocks but people say you gain weight by drinking ? I don't eat after I drink so it's not like I over eat when I'm drunk and I haven't experienced weight gain from it..how does that work just curious

    Keep it within your allotment and you'll be fine.

    Alcohol does have calories. I drink and I still lose weight. I just make sure to log my alcohol. If I know I'm going to drink, then I give myself a set amount to drink and make sure I save the amount of calories I know I'm going to need for it.

    People who gain while drinking might be over doing it on the alcohol and causing themselves to go over their calorie limit by drinking too much.

    I have 1-2 drink 1-3 times a week (depends on the week i.e. family coming over, football playoff games LOL) as long as I work it into my calories, its fine for me. A lot times if I'm like going out drinking or something, I'll count it as a cheat day because I'm someone who tends to eat when they drink. But I do that very rarely. You should be fine if it's been working for you!
