I am just curious. I think I would drop 10 pounds quickly if I would stick with it. I heard some people actually gain weight because they eat a lot of sweet junk food to compensate for the sugar in their alcohol.

Puff face Barbie - LMAO! (too funny Barbie!)
Me... well since December I have lost 23lbs. I would probably have lost more but I can't seem to stick with a decent exercise regime and have started to eat a bit more than usual lately.
Booze weight was about 20 pounds. It took about 3 months to lose it without adding anything drastic into my day.Comment

I have gone down from 165 to 159 lbs in 64 days of non drinking - but then I was pretty slim to start with!

Calories
I read the average bottle of merlot has 650 - 700 calories. I don't know about you all but my bottle (plus) of wine I also eat more (to even out my buzz). That's probably 1000 or more extra calories in a day!
One pound equals 3500 calories.Comment

Hey all,
I have lost about 12 lbs since I found this site. (That was about a day after Star, so almost 2 months ago.) I thought I would lose more quicky without all those calories, but no such luck!! I think my body went into shock and starvation mode. Anyway, these 12 lbs weren't easy--I also changed my eating patterns (to very healthy and a lot less quantity) and added excercise (walking fast pace for 2-3 miles a day) for the first time in years! I would love to give my metabolism needs a swift kick!!!! Being 46 does stink!!
)
Can't do anything except keep plugging along. I will HAVE to lose at some point --- it's a fact of science right??!??! LOL
Have a nice day everyone!Comment

I lost about 7 lbs, but then, I started drinking again, but somehow the wait stayed off. Isn't that odd?Comment

I was doing the math and thinking I'd lose 2.5 lbs a week by doing nothing but stop drinking. I'm looking for inspiration. Congrats to you who've lost!
I am heading toward the slower metabolism but am still pretty young so that should help me. 33.Comment
