I'm in with you for a while!

I'm a pretty regular drinker. Sure, it's low carb beer, but it's still not conducive to losing weight and keeping it off.

I'm doing a week of Fat Flush, which is a plan that focuses on being nice to your liver. Not only can you not drink alcohol, but no regular coffee, tea or diet soda! You're permitted dandelion root tea instead, which is sort of a liver tonic. Blech. It's awful.

I think you'll find giving up the booze - or at least cutting back - will make your weight loss go far better. Your liver will work more efficiently and you'll be saving a LOT of empty calories. Plus, alcohol messes up your blood sugar and blood sugar control is what Atkins and LCing is all about.

Good luck!
