I tried not drinking at all for the first two weeks (induction) but it was a lot harder for me than the low carbing itself. I think I'll try limiting myself to only drinking one or two nights a week (weekends.) Has anyone had any sucess (still losing) while indulging in moderate drinking, or will I just have to g cold turkey?



Not to be too pushy, but maybe you should ask youself why you can't comfortably go 2 weeks without drinking? I used to be like that until I realized that I was dependent on alcohol and I had to stop. I'm not saying you are...I just think someone needs to bring that up to you. This could be more than a losing weight issue. After all, 2 weeks is not a terribly long time to give something up, unless you are addicted.....
