Nobody wants to hear that a glass or two of wine at night is going to stop your fitness goals in its tracks. But the reality of the matter is that alcohol has the double-edged sword of both paralyzing the fat-burning process while simultaneously creating fat within the body. Plus alcohol tends to lower inhibitions leading to the consumption of other junk food. Not good!
A couple glasses of wine per day is a your one-way ticket to cellulite city… sorry!
So I say “zip it” to all of those morons who say: “consuming several glasses of wine a day is healthy because it has anti-oxidants and that keeps you from getting sick.”
Fruit and veggies have more anti-oxidants and tons of other health benefits, so we just need to cut the BS that wine is an integral part of a healthy diet.
Now, I want to be sensitive to those busy, hard-working moms who have a glass of wine at the end of the day to unwind and take some of the load off of their shoulders because I get that. But I also know there are other healthier ways to de-stress that don’t have such a negative effect on your body composition. Such activities are stretching, foam rolling, exercising with friends, taking a bath, reading a book, etc.
As a caveat to those who enjoy beer, wine, etc. we all know and hear about the beer gut, the pooch, and other terms. Wheat and other ingredients tend to sit in your system thus causing this effect. You should consider a gentle CLEANSE for your system. It is a great way to start any fitness routine or weight loss program.
So please remember- if you booze, you WON’T lose!
