Understanding the relationship between alcohol and Weight Loss
Every sip of alcohol adds more calories than you might expect, with calories from alcohol being particularly sneaky since they don't fill you up or provide any nutrients. Reducing alcohol can cut these 'empty calories', contributing to weight loss as part of a calorie-controlled diet. Less alcohol also means your body can burn fat more effectively, as it's not busy processing the alcohol.
Cutting back on drinks can also improve your sleep and, subsequently, your metabolism. Better sleep helps regulate the hormones that control appetite, making it easier to choose healthier foods and resist cravings. This way, mindful drinking becomes a powerful ally in your weight management journey, allowing you to enjoy life's pleasures while keeping your health goals in sight.

Practical Tips:
Managing Weight while enjoying a drink
-
Hydration is key
Alternate your drinks with water or opt for alcohol-free beers and mocktails to stay hydrated and reduce calorie intake.
-
Go Low-Calorie
Choose non-alcoholic wines or spirits with zero-calorie mixers to enjoy the ritual of drinking without the extra calories.
-
Control your intake
Be mindful of how much you drink by measuring out non-alcoholic spirits or enjoying pre-measured alcohol-free beers.
-
Embrace alcohol-free days
Make non-alcoholic options your go-to on several days of the week to help cut down on overall calorie consumption.
-
Pair wisely
If you choose to drink alcohol, do so with a nutritious meal to slow the absorption of alcohol and decrease the temptation for late-night snacking. When opting for non-alcoholic drinks, enjoy them with healthy snacks to maintain your weight loss efforts.

FAQs
-
Q. Can reducing my alcohol really make a difference to my weight?
A. Yes, even small reductions can contribute to a lower calorie intake, which may help with weight management.
-
Q. How quickly will I see the benefits of drinking less?
A. While it varies from person to person, many report feeling more energised and noticing a positive change in their weight within weeks of reducing their alcohol consumption.
-
Q. Are low-alcohol and alcohol-free drinks a better choice for weight management?
A. Indeed, they are typically lower in calories compared to their alcoholic counterparts, which can be beneficial for those looking to manage their weight.
-
Q. Can I still lose weight if I drink alcohol?
A. Yes, it's possible to lose weight while still drinking alcohol, but moderation is key. Alcohol contains calories, and consuming it in excess can make it more challenging to achieve a calorie deficit, which is necessary for weight loss. Opting for lower-calorie alcoholic beverages or alcohol-free alternatives can help you manage your calorie intake while still enjoying a social drink.
-
Q. Does alcohol really stop fat burning?
A. Alcohol can temporarily inhibit the body's fat-burning process. When you consume alcohol, your body prioritises metabolising the alcohol over other sources of fuel, like fats. This doesn't stop fat burning completely, but it can slow the process down, which may affect weight loss efforts if you're frequently consuming high amounts of alcohol. Choosing alcohol-free drinks can help avoid this slowdown and support your body's natural metabolism.

If you experience fits, shaking hands, sweating, seeing things that are not real, depression, anxiety, or difficulty sleeping after a period of drinking and while sobering up, there's a possibility you might be clinically dependent on alcohol. In such cases, it's important not to abruptly and completely cease drinking. However, you can regain control over your drinking habits. We strongly advise you to consult with a GP or reach out to your nearby community alcohol service for assistance in safely reducing your alcohol intake.
