Best alcohol

Postby Wardie on Thu Jun 10, 2010 7:42 pm

Please dom't say don't drink!

What's the best thing to drink in terms of calories etc and not ruining the diet? I've been drinking a lot more beer lately and it's showing. Got a bit of fat all over and on my boobs (or it's gyno - hope not).

Voda/Spirit & Diet Coke or similar?

Will feel a bit homoerotic asking for a vodka and diet coke when out but I may be able to face it. I'm guessing wine will be full of sugars and looks even gayer unless in a restaurant.

Real men drink red wine. It won't hammer your test levels and has benefits, so if you want to drink frequently i'd go with that. Cider is better than beer cal and hormone wise. Spirits with diet coke/soda is best for cals.

I drink very rarely, but when i do i start with magners then usually go onto spirits after 3 pints, cause it gets sickly.

Yeah I usually have 3/4 pints then go into several spirits but i'll of been having proper Coke when out which will be awful when you're drinking 6-8 of them

Go To Netto, they do a lovely South African Shiraz/Grenache for £3.99

15% Vol and it slips down very nicely indeed. I've got everyone in the office drinking it.... rocket fuel :D

Just drink what you like but keep it moderate and sensible... maybe just have three where you would have had five. Drinking all the time is a nightmare for dieting/cutting but moderate sensible drinking is fine imo... maybe just consume less energy calories earlier in the day... and if you do really end up over doing it on a single night then just ramp up the cardio for the next few days or so.

Adore Kir Royales.

Wardie, drinking spirits with diet soda gets you drunk faster than if you drink it will normal-sugar soda. It also hinders your diet.

Artificially Sweetened Versus Regular Mixers Increase Gastric Emptying and Alcohol Absorption
Keng-Liang Wu MDa, Reawika Chaikomin MDa, Selena Doran Med Lab Scia, Karen L. Jones PhDa, Michael Horowitz PhDa and Christopher K. Rayner MBBS, PhD

Abstract
Background

Mixed alcoholic drinks are increasingly being consumed in “diet” varieties, which could potentially empty more rapidly from the stomach and thereby increase the rate of alcohol absorption when compared with “regular” versions containing sugar.
Methods

We studied 8 healthy males twice in randomized order. On each day, they consumed an orange-flavored vodka beverage (30 g ethanol in 600 mL), made with either “regular” mixer containing sucrose (total 478 kcal), or “diet” mixer (225 kcal).
Results

Gastric half-emptying time measured by ultrasound (mean ± standard deviation) was less for the “diet” than the “regular” drink (21.1 ± 9.5 vs 36.3 ± 15.3 minutes, P <.01). Both the peak blood ethanol concentration (0.053 ± 0.006 vs 0.034 ± 0.008 g%, P <.001) and the area under the blood ethanol concentration curve between 0 and 180 minutes (5.2 ± 0.7 vs 3.2 ± 0.7 units, P <.001) were greater with the “diet” drink.
Conclusions

Substitution of artificial sweeteners for sucrose in mixed alcoholic beverages may have a marked effect on the rate of gastric emptying and the blood alcohol response.

Don't be a fanny.

If you're going to drink, drink proper drinks - beer, wine, cocktails. Not those foul excuses for liquids mixed with cheap vodka.

by the power of greyskull- it seems somebody has upset thor-rilla
he will bring hades down on yo asses :D

listen wardie, alcohol is the devils work- consume it and it inhibits fat oxidation end of, if you do drink, drink what the f you want, but i would supercompensate with extra cardio and get extra hydrated and limit it to a few nights
bit of a toughy during the world cup though
