alcohol is not allowed on induction, so its your choice if your birthday is worth getting kicked out of ketosis or not.

Exactly what kibskix said. It's a decision of one night of drinking vs. however much time and work you've already put into it. I wouldn't do it, but I'm not in your situation.

Also wanted to add in I've made the mistake of drinking while on Induction

You will most likely get Very Buzzed .. but you will also get super sick, get some serious dehydration, and your body over all freaks out and its NOT FUN

I believe Brandy is carb free, so you shouldn't get kicked out of ketosis??
But alcohol is burned before fat, so you won't lose weight....it will also lower your willpower and you will probably break your diet....
its a slippery slope, and I speak from experience (also my fav drink)

alcohol is allowed further up the rungs.....personally i would wait

True, you won't kick out of ketosis but alcohol is Rung Five. Period. My own experience is that until I am at Rung four my body is not getting enough carbs to absorb the alcohol. Even one wine will affect you differently since nothing slows the alcohol absorption. And I get hung over far easier. Totally not worth it.
