A friend mentioned that back then there was a vodka brand called 3…. Cause it only had 3 calories. YES. 3 CALORIES.  ”3” vodka comes from soybeans. The regular vodka we drink — is made by the distillation of fermented substances such as grains, potatoes, or sometimes fruits and/or sugar.

Anyway… 

I’m not the kind of girl that counts calories, i eat whatever and whenever i want but…. last night it got me curious. Can alcohol make you fat? How many calories do they contain? My other friend said some cocktails can reach 350 calories — that a single chocolate martini has more calories than a cheeseburger at McDonald’s. 

Well, i did my research. 

Alcohol Calorie Count:

According to experts—-

Here’s the problem with all alcoholic beverages, and the reason I recommend refraining from alcohol consumption on the diet. Alcohol, whenever taken in, is the first fuel to burn. While that’s going on, your body will not burn fat. This does not stop the weight loss, it simply postpones it, since the alcohol does not store as glycogen, you immediately go back into ketosis/lipolysis after the alcohol is used up.

If you must drink alcohol, wine is an acceptable addition to levels beyond the Induction diet. If wine does not suit your taste, straight liquor such as scotch, rye, vodka, and gin would be appropriate, as long as the mixer is sugarless; this means no juice, tonic water; or non-diet soda. Seltzer and diet soda are appropriate.

Oh well. This still doesn’t stop me from drinking :P 

Happy Labor Day everyone! CHEERS!
