Alcohol Side effects

Hello all!
I am on day 2 of phase 1! All is well except that I have a frat/sorority reunion thingy this weekend and I know that I will give in and drink. I can usually do vodka, I know this sounds bad but I would rather drink beer but unfortunately that would be really bad for. If I do a tequilla shot with a friend or something how does this effect my weight loss and why? Thanks so much!!!

Hi,


Another reason to avoid alcohol is because it weakens your resolve.

I just started phase 1 again after a 6 month break. Personally, I could not make it the 2 weeks without red wine. I definitely do not have a drinking problem, but I was so irritable in phase 1. The red wine took the edge off. I probably had a glass every other day, and was able to lose 10 pounds in phase 1. My cravings were gone as well. I just feel like I have to have that wine or I can't diet at all.

I do not think it will affect your weight loss or anything.
