Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

Alcohol While Slimming

Question:

Either that or I’ve always been a perv!  I do have slightly elevated testosterone / androgens due to PCOS.  Elevated sex drive is the only side effect from this disorder that I like!! — Email me at: perpleglow(AT)comcast.net http://community.webshots.com/user/perpleglow

Yeah, but it increases sex drive, so you burn more calories to let you eat munchies!! — Email me at: perpleglow(AT)comcast.net I was thinking the same thing. I would have thought cannabis would give the munchies  lol

I would have thought cannabis would give the munchies  lol Maybe try some low-alcohol beers, as it’s the alcohol that contains the vast majority of the calories.  It does depend on you though.  I don’t think there would be a problem in having a drink on Friday or Saturday – although maybe not both.  Personally, I have never found that alcohol does anything to my weight, but I know this is not the experience of the vast majority of people. Cannabis is a lot better for weight-loss MadJock Ok, I know this is bad when slimming, but i really do like to have a drink on friday and saturday nights. So i was wondering if some drinks contain less calories than others, like vodka compared to lager/beer ? Obviously vodka would be taken with diet softdrinks. Thanks Stuart A simple formula to use is to take the proof and subtract 15 and that will give you a reasonable estimate of the calories per ounce (i.e. 80 proof vodka is 65 cal/oz.).  Beer is about 12 cal/oz. or about 150 cal for a 12 oz. bottle. Wine varies from 15-20 cal/oz for red & white wines to 40-50 cal/oz for dessert wines. Keep in mind that with alcohol it’s not always the calories but the reduction in will power that may accompany a drink or two.  With that said, I enjoy a good dark beer once a week and it hasn’t killed me or my diet so far, but then again I only drink at home because I’m a total lightweight/cheap date and get a major buzz from my one drink.

Jenn Why waste precious calories on cheap booze?  Go for the good stuff! Life is too short for bad beer. If you’re going to have a beer, have A GOOD beer. That lite stuff sucks indeed. I still drink a good microbrew ale, pilsner, stout or lambic once in a while; I just make sure it is once in a while. Martha

I’m partial to dark beers, especially Guiness, but no one has it on tap and everyone serves it cold.  Lots of great microbrews around and I have a friend who makes the most fantastic lager, but sadly only once a year. Jenn

Very true, and make sure and eat something low fat before you go to the bar, one because it’s not healthy to drink on an empty stomach and two to help with the will power. Or were you talking the coyote ugly factor

Response:

The alcohol in those beverages has the same calorie count, it’s either 7 or 9 calories per gram.  The other ingredients it is going to vary.  A (one) drink won’t hurt once or twice a week. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Ok, I know this is bad when slimming, but i really do like to have a drink on friday and saturday nights.
