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)*
