So 2 weeks in and no wine so how come I've not lost any weight? Gave up wine last year for a few weeks and lost 7lbs! Hmm..I'm not eating that differently. Can't understand why I've not lost even a pound!

Have you replaced wine for pizza and chocolate?

You must be eating more than you realise. I think uou probably know deep down. Your statement says you're not eating "that" differently, so you know you are eating differently.

Are you drinking juice or fizzy drinks or RIbena instead?

Two cans of coke have slightly more calories than half a bottle of wine.

I have had odd treat like a chocolate bar one night and a fizzy drink a couple of nights but generally the same..maybe that was enough to equal wine calories?? Have also given up Diet Coke so drinking fizzy water sometimes with a bit of juice and lots of decaf coffee (with skimmed milk!)

It's got to be more than one bar of chiocolate and two fizzy drinks in two weeks. So maybe portion sizes, grazing, picking, that sort of thing?

To be honest I really don't think I'm eating any more than I was before..I'm wondering whether it'll just take a while for my metabolism to kick in??
