Drinking heavily increases your calorie intake and many people are unaware of how fattening alcohol can be. Did you know that:
A standard 175ml glass of white/red wine = 2 plain digestive biscuits (115 calories)*
A premium 5% lager has the same calorie content as a slice of pepperoni pizza (250 calories)*
An alcopop = 2 slices of carrot cake (170 calories)*
A single measure of spirits = a small Yorkshire pudding (55 calories)*
