You do realise alcohol oxidises into acetaldehyde
then ketone bodies & burns much faster & more cleanly than
carbs?

1. Alcohol metabolism can contribute to lipogenesis. If you're
trying
to lose fat then you're not.

http://www.elmhurst.edu/~chm/vchembo...lcoholmet.html

i dont need proof of that. im losing weight too quickly because im
essentially following JC's advice and havent had a real meal in close
to two
weeks now. i dont care how it metabolises because my weight loss
isnt the
biggest thing on my mind.


So JC tells you to jump off of a bridge you...



2. If you're trying to alleviate stress, then why lurk/read/post on
asdl-c? Why not spend time with DH instead?

there is nothing i want more, but i only get a few hours a day to
visit DH,
and theres a bunch of worrysome things going on with that. im hardly
a
lurker, queenie would be happier if i was. i am a low carber, i like
the
people here and the conversations... its an unmoderated newsgroup,
why cant
i read and chat?


Right now it sounds like your a no-carber. No food. Booze only.
There's a name for it. Wait it'll come to me.



3. Using alcohol to "relax" can be habit forming.

i have an extremely low tolerance to alcohol, so i'm the cheap date,
one
drink and im pretty much gone. i dont like getting drunk, i never
get that
way, i just want to relax a little bit. folks have a glass of wine
(or
whatever) with dinner, im entitled if i so choose. however, i do
appreciate
your concern.


One drink and you're done? So you'll only drink half?


4. Why are you "due" to drink alcohol? Have you been building up
no-alcohol-consumption points?


i was on antidepressants for over 10 years. because of the meds, it
greatly
amplified the drunk feeling and i didnt like it. i probably had 20
drinks
in my entire life. im not building up points, i just want a drink,
and i
want to know whats safe to have.


10 years of antidepressants explains a lot. Good luck to you. You
have too many issues that have absolutely nothing to do with
low-carbing that will negatively affect your ability to perform same.

thanks.

That's got to be one of the worst SIGs ever. Just an opinion.

Try a Scotch and soda or plain water, with a twist of lime. That's what I
used to drink when I wanted to have a few but not get a hangover.

Be sure to eat with your drink so your blood sugar won't go too low.

she's not eating. she shouldn't be drinking booze.

agreed. In fact, instead of typing here, she should work on forcing some
food down. If you can't handle solid food, try a protein shake or something.

i think she should be in therapy instead of typing here.

I think several people on this group should be in therapy.
And no, that was not directed at you.
