Red wine

Because of my heart concerns (being addressed currently in the CRP
thread on this newsgroup), I would like to have the occasional glass of
non-sweet red wine.

I wonder how many of you indulge in wine while still losing weight on a
low-carb regimen. Is it totally counterproductive to have that glass of
merlot or burgundy?

I am not inclined at all to drink wine every night (disrupts my sleep),
but on Fridays or special occasions, it would be nice.

I gave up all alcohol during induction. Now, my boyfriend and I drink quite a
few bottles of wine each month. I have an occasional cocktail but am mindful of
the mixer, i.e. diet soda, club soda, water.

The drier varietes are usually also lower in carb. I drink several glasses
of
Cabernet Sauvignon per week. Don't tell anyone, but I actually like Peter
Viella boxed Cab Sauv Enjoy in moderation!!!

My wife and I drink anywhere from half a bottle to a bottle, about 5
days/week. I have never traced a stall to wine consumption. I tend to
prefer dry Gamay or Pinot Noir.

I started having 4 oz of Merlot at bedtime (I drink it cold because I really
don't like the taste of red wine)
I noticed no change in the rate of weight loss.
However a big improvement in the quality of my sleeping and the subsequent
reduction in tension in my daily life.

Your actually mileage may vary.

Well, I had a glass and a half of Merlot at supper tonight. (That was plenty.)

Thanks for your feedback on this. My gut was that it would be OK to have a
glass of dry red wine now and then. I think I'll make it a Friday-night
tradition. Something to look forward to at the end of the week.

I am a home winemaker and drink at least two glasses of dry red wine per
day. I have gone from a weight of 234 in April to 202 now. I am satisfied
with my progress.

Anne,

The authors of Protein Power, a very helpful low carb book filled with
excellent scientific explanations of how the diet works, suggest drinking a
glass of wine with dinner.

Thanks, Jenny. That's very interesting.

I probably won't do it every night, but one or two glasses on the weekend
sounds good.

Best,
Anne

Peter Vella's not a bad choice, carb-wise but there's a few cabernets even
lower..
