| Drinking Whilst Dieting? Hey, Im trying to lose some weight and put on some muscle generally just look and feel a bit better about myself and have just started doing one of the diets I saw on here.
Meal 1: Yoghurt, cottage cheese, banana, whey smoothie
Meal 2: 4 eggs
Meal 3: Tuna, salad, fruit x2 (avoid bananas)
Meal 4: Chicken breast, brocolli
Meal 5: Lean Beef/Chicken or Fish, Veg x2 (not carrots)
Meal 6: as one without banana.
One cheat day per week - eat and drink what you want.
I was wondering how drink fits into these sort of diets (by this I mean alcoholic drinks) is it allowed? If so how much?
I find that I put on a lot of weight through drinking even the smallest amount of beer so Ive cut it out for the time being completly. I go out twice on week on average, once on a Friday where I tend to drink a fair bit (probably around 12-16 shots of spirits throughout the course of a night) and once on a Sunday where I will have a couple of drinks.
Can I get away with this, or is it going to screw my diet up?
I weigh around 12 stone at the moment, maybe just slightly over and im nearly 5ft 10 in height. I dont do much in the way of excersice at the moment other than walking for about 30 mins a day on average, and weights in my room for about 20 mins a day.
Any info would be appreciated, thanks.
