Ten days ago I started a fairly strict diet to get rid of the effects from recent visitors and before the next lot arrives.

This involves very very low carbs (I need to for my diabetes anyway) and absolutely no alcohol (despite the fact that whisky – my favorite tipple- has no carbs)

Have I lost any weight? The answer is a

big NO. Not worth the effort really.

General info on drinks:

The numbers represent grams of carbs per drink, e.g. what you’ll get if you order one in a bar.

When it comes to drinks it’s pretty straightforward. Pure spirits like whiskey, brandy, cognac, vodka, tequila contain zero carbs and they are all fine on low carb.
