I’m trying to lose 10/15 or so pounds by May, will cutting out alcohol until then make a noticeable difference?

    I've lost 21.5 pounds drinking pretty regularly since November. It hasn't for me. I would just log it and follow your call limits.

    if you go over your calories with alcohol, cutting it out will help

    As long as you don't replace those calories with something else you will be eating/drinking fewer calories which will help.

    It made it a lot easier for me. The alcohol calories themselves plus the poor food choices I made after drinking added up to quite a bit.
