Is that glass of wine worth it? Sometimes we don’t realize that some of our bad habits and cheat snacks really can add up. If you’re having having trouble losing weight, try adding up the calories from all your guilty pleasures and see in large how many calories it adds up to.
A standard pour of wine has approximately 125 calories. That means:
- 1 Glass a night – 861 calories a week and 3,444 a month
- 2 Glasses a night – 1722 calories a week and 6,888 a month
- 3 Glasses a night – 2583 calories a week and 10,332 a month
Assuming you are consuming a balanced diet relative to your metabolic rate, and not doing extra workouts this means you will gain at least one pound each month.

If you really need to have some alcohol go for a shot or two of rum or vodka. Those few ounces contain enough alcohol. Or if you’re serious, some Everclear with a little bit of juice or water. Problem solved.

Sometimes you can lie with the truth. There are many reasons to drink red wine, and 1-1/2 glasses of wine is considered healthy for many, especially to reduce the threat of heart disease. It is easy to work off this small extra number of calories. Please tell your readers to check with their doctor.
