How do you work in alcohol in your No S plan? Do you have a beer or wine on S days or anyday?

Reinhard has another system called Glass Ceiling that was intended for another issue but can be incorporated into No-S. Essentially, you can have two alcoholic beverages daily -- even on N days.

You might have to watch for excess sugar in some drinks and mixers.

I was up two glasses of wine most of the days of the week and my weight crept up.

I cut back to one or none on N days, sometimes 2 on weekends.

And now the weight is slowly going back down...

I'm pretty sure French women limit themselves to a glass at the average meal. I know I've read they're shocked at how drunk the English girls typically get, as well as how much they eat. I don't get that they think it's a sign of lucky freedom to overdo eating or drinking.
