Alcohol question

[queenvic]

I save my syns for Alcohol on a w/end but I tend to go over abit probly 4 syns fri & sat, I'm worried that i'm going to start putting on weight again I have rum and diet coke fridays & saturdays, i dont drink atal then till the following friday. Can anyone tell me if alcohol slows the weight loss down? I'm so worried getting on those scales monday! lol :sigh::cry:

As long as you count your syns you should be OK. My problem is ,after a few drinks , counting syns flies out of the window, and the cheese and crackers come out! Also as we drink at home, the measures are far larger than a pub. I know it's alcohol (and OH!) that's kyboshing me losing weight, but it doesn't have to .

I tend to have 3 glasses of red wine on a Fri, Sat and Sun and still have my 4 matchmakers with coffee so my syns are at least up at 20, but I'm still losing so not worrying too much. I try and stay off the booze for 3 night a week which you are doing and more so hopefully should be ok!

ahh thx for your your replies the good thing is i've got out of the habbit of giving into chocs etc when i drink, i just have a banana or low fat yogurt and i feel ok it says in one of my books that i read last night acctually you can have 50 syns one day and thats fine... as long as you go back to being healthy the next day which is realy reasuring.

4 Syns over is really nothing to worry about. The biggest danger with alcohol and weight gain is getting the munchies and not having the willpower to control them
