    I only drink at weekends ... mostly *kitten* it makes the wine more "special" and an occasion other than becoming another drink

    I like a glass of wine with my dinner a couple of times a week... but I make sure it stays at 1 glass, and that it doesn't put me over my overall goal

    I miss my dark beer sometimes though... just not worth the 200-250 calories for a bottle of the stuff I like (only comes in 500ml, and noone to share it with)

    I'm not a wine drinker, prefer the odd G&T :smiley: but usually only at the weekends. :smile:

    I've got a lot of very expensive pinots and cabs in my wine closet that I collect but only drink on special occasions.

    I also have a lot of cheap sauv blanc, pinot and zin that I buy by the case that I can drink whenever I like but seldom drink unless I'm also cooking w/it.

    The sparkling wine that I keep on hand is also saved for special occasions.

    I enjoy prosecco....sometimes too much. I want to ease off alcohol for better over all health and fitness. Anyone else have this issue?

    Oh, where do I begin.

    I love a good: Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Merlot (+blends), Fetească Neagră, Zweigelt is best for Mondays.
    For some reason, white doesn't do it for me. Either too sweet / perfumed, or lacking. Some roses are nice, including the sparkling variety.

    I could down a bottle easy-peasy, but ever since switching to keto I learned moderation. I drink a glass on weekends and enjoy it so much better, next to really dark chocolate.

    I love love love wine. I drink it every night. I do, however, make sure that I can afford it within my calories. If I get close to my max calories, I just squeeze in an extra cardio session.
