Default Re: alcohol...

The short version: Your body stops burning fat & burns up all of the alcohol instead, then goes back to burning fat. You stop losing weight while the alcohol is being used as fuel instead of fat.
Do yourself a favor and and wait (at least!) until the end of induction so that you can get into ketosis and figure out your metabolic resistance.
