My new plan regarding alcohol

Previous post for context

After reading yall’s thoughts and advice, I think I am just going to cut back, i.e. have 200 cals of wine on Friday and Saturday, 300 on Sunday (adds up to 1 bottle). So I will be in a deficit 4 days a week, and just at maintenance 3 days a week. 1800 cals is the least amount of food i can reasonably handle eating, and it’s only a slight deficit at my height (5’10), weight (167 lbs), and activity level (sedentary). Weight loss will be slow, but i will still be doing IF, and I definitely will at least not be gaining more weight. What do you all think?

Ultimately weight loss needs to be sustainable, otherwise we just bounce off it. If that’s what you need in order to put in work the rest of the days then that’s what you need.

I would maybe challenge yourself to have a curve out plan though. Do this for one month. Then next month try to drop whatever day seems easiest back to a no alcohol day. Then month after make that a deficit day as well. Keep going until you’re only drinking on occasions when you really want to.
