    Can I use alcohol as a treat?

    Can you offer some advice on drinking alcohol.

    Hi, Caroline. Alcohol is definitely allowed as a treat in this program. To make it work, you can either substitute what you want for the corresponding exchanges in your menu (you can view them by clicking on “Exchange mode” in the toolbar above any of your current menus), or selecting them in the food lists in the personal version of the Menu Planner (you can access it by clicking on the “My Food Choices” icon in the toolbar above your menu), located in the “Beverages” subcategory of the “Carbohydrates” category.
    The following equal 1 carb + 1 fat exchange:
    Wine, Red, Dry ~ 4 fl oz or 120 ml
    Wine, White, Dry ~ 4 fl oz or 120 ml
    Beer or Ale, Light ~ 10 fl oz or 300 ml
    Beer or Ale, Regular ~ 7 fl oz or 200 ml
    Champagne ~ 4 fl oz or 120 ml
    Liqueur, Sweet ~ 1 fl oz or 30 ml
    Liquor, Unsweetened ~ 1.5 fl oz or 45 ml
