Alcohol
In Phase One it is preferable that, if possible, you avoid alcohol. If you do choose to have a drink of alcohol during Phase One we suggest that you try to balance it out with some extra activity. The energy in 1 full strength beer or an average glass of wine equates to a 30 minute walk (approximately). During Phase Two and Three, if desired, alcohol can be included as an “extra” and the additional calories off-set by increasing your activity. If you would like some more information on safe alcohol consumption you can refer to the National Guidelines for Alcohol Consumption. |
