I am not a heavy drinker by means, but I do enjoy my glass or glasses of wine..and now all of a sudden it hit me, I am not sure how to incorporate it? I wont right away due to I am on the liquid diet.. but I am turning 40 in a couple of weeks and I dont know what to do, or how to introduce it?? I hope this does not sound dumb..I know I can not drink while eating, so does this mean I can have a have a glass of wine just before, then eat, wait an hour...then have another glass..lol..who knew this would be something that is making me confused!!!

Thanks for all your help!!

Never stopped me.....it is calories, that's all you really need to know.

I'm not a heavy drinker, but I still have a cocktail every time we go out, I have had a beer or two at a ball game, etc., and we always have wine in the house.

I don't have to wait an hour before and after. I just can't drink and eat at the same time or my meal comes right back at me!!! lol

Just be aware of the calories, and they are empty calories. Also, I know for me a couple drinks makes me hungry, and I am far more likely to eat something not on my plan. Just be carefull - have fun on your birthday!

Thank you everyone!! All of a sudden things just got confusing and overwhelming with rules..lol..and yes, it would be nice to enjoy a glass or two for my birthday!! So I will not drink while I eat..but I will maybe drink before and after..hee hee and I will keep in mind the calories..
