Well, I love wine, I have been making my own for many years. It is the one thing I refuse to give up, however, I did not have any for the first 3-4 weeks on this way of eating, then once I saw it was working so well, and I read Protien Power, and it allows one glass of wine with dinner. So I now am back to drinking my wine, and it has no effect on my weight loss, However, I make a deal with myself that for every glass of wine I have to also drink a huge glass of water, even if I've already had my 64 oz's for the day.
So give it some time, then go ahead and have a glass, just remember to have extra water.
