I would like to know how alcohol fits into the program. I normally have 2 drinks a day. Sometimes chardoney and sometimes “rusty nail” (Scotch and drambui, which is a scotch lequer)
Alcohol is processed in the body like fat, and a sugary drink is also counted as a sweet (carb).
For a rusty nail, assuming 1 jigger each of scotch and Drambuie (total 3 fl oz), that would come to 2 carbs and 4-5 fat exchanges.
The chardonnay is much lower in carbs and alcohol, and so the average 4 fl oz glass would be counted as 2 fats.I AM TRYING TO DO GLUTEN FREE AND I NEED RECIPES.I HAVE NOT FOUND ANYTHING ON THIS WEBSITE THAT HAS THAT.
The weather is beutifull in Texas. So for exercise today I took a brisk 40 minute walk around the park. I feel great!

-New memberSWG stands for “sprouted whole grain”. In SWG products, the grain seeds have been allowed to sprout before milling, with makes them more digestible and the nutrients more available to the body.
Also, for the free vegetables list on this link: http://www.trimdownclub.com/free-vegetables; is it allowed to eat from them as much as you want for the entire day any time in the day? because I read this written at the bottom of the menu:
“Click Here for a list of fresh vegetables that are loaded with nutrients and can be eaten as much as you like.”Thank you.
SWG products are available at health-oriented stores such as Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, New Leaf, etc., as well as online at http://www.foodforlife.com.
