Alcohol Question

Hey quick question,

I like to get a bit squiffy now and then, do you guys figure alcohol into your calorie counts seeing as its empty calories an'all?

ta

Alcohol has calories but it's not a 'food'.  So make sure you're getting your full calorie intake of food and then add any calories from alcohol on top.  Otherwise you'll miss out on nutrition.

Yes I do--a calorie is a calorie, even if it has no other wonderful nutrients alongside it.

I'm with emer13, I always log the alcohol calories. Makes me accountable on multiple levels (reasonable calories and moderation in drinking).

Although I got sick of counting calories and gave up on that I still mentally think about the calories in it before I drink and back when I was logging calories I did so with alcohol.

Oh and I love that you said "squiffy". Thats such a good word!

Yea I dont log anything anymore but when i did i logged alcohol,  I still manage to be in the ballpark of the average calories i want to hey
