A SUGGESTION IF YOU ARE TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT AND STILL WANT TO DRINK
Drinking alcohol is something we can all enjoy as a society, however if we do not
watch our intake we can easily be putting ourselves on a path to obesity. There are some simple
steps we can all take to avoid these problems:
1. If you are going to drink mixed drinks, mix with diet beverages or fruit juices.
2. Stay away from "heavy" beers, light beers taste just as good.
note: Do not forget light beers have just as much alcohol as "heavy" beers.
3. Remember that white wines are lower in calories than red wines.
4. Try drinking a glass of water between drinks. You will not only fight off calories,
but you will keep yourself hydrated as well.
5. Alcohol slows down the body's metabolism, which means you are burning less fat when you are
drinking.
6. Don't forget to exercise at least 3 times a week.
