Extremist here
Don't drink, myself. Read enough on here to know that:
Wine will slow your weightloss. Your choice after that--is it worth it, how much do you want to lose, how fast? But comparing two equivalent food plans, one getting some carbs from wine and one getting "normal" carbs, equivalent everything else (which is of course impossible), the non-drinker will lose faster.
In a business situation--TEST FIRST. MANY LCers report vastly enhanced effects from MUCH less alcohol than would have been safe previously.
And then again: One never HAS to drink. Most people don't notice what's in your hand anyway, and you can always say, "My doctor told me to cut back for a bit... " or whatever works. We're almost in Lent, right? That's good for six weeks, which ought to give you enough time to study the problem at home before you have to risk a business deal over it.
