I am thinking of cutting out alcohol until my birthday
I usually have a glass of wine or 2 each night. I am thinking this maybe the problem of me not losing weight.
I am drinking wine on my bday which is July 22, so that gives me a little over a month to see.
Any thoughts?

Re: I am thinking of cutting out alcohol until my birthday
So weird u just brought this up since my coworker is doing WW and most of the foods she can eat, she wont since she dosent like them. She also like to have her drinks, wine or whatever it may be..that might be why she isnt dropping weight.
I know that one glass is 2 pts for WW and that is a lot to someone who is limited 20/22pts a day so its kind of like not worth it.
Maybe try cutting down to one glass or at least enjoy the wine on weekends w/dinner and see if that makes a difference.

I think you will definitely see results, with losing weight and your workouts if you cut the wine out, or cut back on it.
The other thing is that most people drink more than the 4 oz serving size (I know I do....) so when you are having a glass, it may actually be 2 servings or more, calorie-wise.

That is way too much alcohol if you are trying to lose weight. I would have 2 per week, max.

Okay, so I made the decision. I am not drinking any alcohol until my bday.
Just seltzer, water and my coffee in the morning.

Tara, I don't think you have a weight problem at all! Anyone who is a size 2 or 4 should not worry about anything. If you enjoy your wine I say go for it!

Thanks Beth and Denise. But I have gained some weight and I am not happy about it. Plus I really think I am drinking to much wine, so I am going to cut it out for now and see if that is the culprit.

good luck with not drinking alcohol. it will be tough (at least it would be for me), but it prob is prob holding you back from losing weight.
