I'm not quite sure what you mean by that, Dee.
The problem (not a huge problem - just something to be aware of) with drinking alcohol is that it does slow down weight loss. That means any alcohol at all - even spirits with no carbs.
But we want this to become a way of life, and for most of us life includes a little alcohol here and there.
One more thing to realise, is that those stupid bits of plastic (can you tell I don't like ketostix? ) will show you to be in ketosis after drinking alcohol. Just as they will after you have eaten a fatty meal, and if you are dehydrated.
Cheers,
Roz
