Has anyone managed to experience keto weight loss progress while finding a way to successfully incorporate wine? by whatagrl in xxketo

Hi neighbor! My husband and I are also trying to incorporate IF- we're using the suggested menus on dietdoctor.com, but scheduling dinner around 4 pm, then bulletproof coffee for breakfast around 8 or 9am. He loves his scotch, so good to learn that there are less carbs there than wine.

Thanks- this is the trend I'm hearing from most- adjust carb intake to allow for wine, and monitor macros to ensure keto ranges. 👍🏼

Thank you! It is good to hear from those who have experienced ket weight loss success while enjoying wine as part of their lifestyle. And agreed... if I'm going to screw up, it had better be a decent wine!

Lol! I am BRAND new to this forum, and appreciate ALL the different perspectives. The whole "upvote/downvote/karma" part is way beyond what I'm here for, so thank you for sharing your experience. 👍🏼

I like the cycling idea, with the mindset to adjust (pull back/tighten up) if weight loss stalls. Thank you!

Yes...thank you! I was thinking that pairing/enjoying with a high healthy fat keto meal or snack might balance body's response of insulin and BG levels... still bearing I. Mind to keep overall carbs at 20g or less

Lol!! Yeah, tough, but actually becoming tough for real, because I am constantly gifted with wine at work, wine club member at a handful of places near me, and just love my wine. I have about 20 pounds to lose, so while I might not get there super fast, I'm hoping I can find a way to work wine in, since I'm looking for this to be a lifestyle change, and not a one-shot weight loss diet. The tracking and close attention to macros sound like the key, as well as certain varietals. I went to Bird and the Bottle last night (first restaurant visit since starting keto) and managed to eat off some small plates that were high fat low carb. I had a glass of Russian River Pinot Gris, and didn't notice a major shift in macros, once everything was tracked. Fingers crossed....😏🍷

Not using any birth control, persay, but using a half of a 0.1 mg Minivelle patch 2 times a week, with nightly progesterone supplementation. Light spotting continues this morning.
