I've given it up for now, I tried doing induction while having a couple of glasses of dry red wine, did it for 2 weeks and lost nothing, doing it again now without the wine and on day 13 am down 4 lbs. I plan on continuing without the wine until I reach my goal. Though I'm sure I'll have the occasional glass, its pretty hard to totally abstain when because we make our own we have a basement full of wine and beer and my husband continues to have a few glasses with dinner. But I think that for me it interferes with weight loss.

In the first Atkins book he states that the effect of a glass of wine is equal to 20 carbs. That thought alone empowers me to say no to even 1 glass
