| Hi there, A lot of straight liquors have almost 0 carbs per shot. I even made myself a handy little table to keep on hand. :0) Carbs. In Alcohol 12 fl oz. beer, regular: 13.2 12 fl oz. beer, lite: 4.6 1 fl oz. clear gin: 0 carbs 1 fl oz. clear rum: 0 carbs 1 fl. oz clear vodka: 0 carbs 1 fl. oz tequila: 0 carbs *Note on drinking any alcohol while on a low carb. diet: the body follows an "order of priority" when it comes to fuel-burning: alcohol (easiest to burn), followed by protein, carbohydrates, then fat. Drinking alcohol will not prevent weight loss, only postpone it. This is why it might be best during weight loss to go easy on the alcohol. Hope this helped!! |

| Another thing to keep an eye out for if you do drink alcohol on induction is that your willpower (or as I often think of it - your 'won't-power') might get fuzzy and agree that some doritos or other carby snacks would be a good idea
