Question 2

can i lose weight by eating only fruits and vegetables while taking considerable amounts of alcohol?

Accepted Answer

Not safe or wise: Eating mostly (but not only) fruits and vegetables can help you lose weight but is dangerous because it won't supply enough essential protein- you must add beans, nuts, eggs or other proteins. Considerable amounts of alcohol undermines weight loss, as alcohol is converted into sugar. Large amounts of alcohol is VERY hazardous to health. See
