ok having done the Atkins diet over the past years i was concerned that on while ive been CD i have heard peeps say that drinking alcohol on CD was 'dangerous'...
i always drank vodka diet coke while doing Atkins and never had any probs... with loss or ketosis.
so anyway i am off out tonight (getting near to goal and slacking lol) and am tempted to have a couple voddies so thought id google it...
this is what i got and it doesnt say it is dangerous...
When you consume Alcohol, it is the first fuel to burn. While that's going on, your body will not burn fat. While this does not stop weight loss, it will postpones it until the alcohol has been used up. If you must drink alcohol, straight liquor such as scotch, rye, vodka, and gin would be the best choices as long as the mixer contains no sugar. If you have added alcohol to your diet and suddenly stop losing, give it up.
