Is there absolutely zero alcohol on this plan? Or is it fine if it is in the overeating phase?

FWIW, here's how I usually do my eating window, or EW for short, heheh:

1. I NEVER break the fast with any sort of booooooze.

2. I tend to have a 200-400 cal first-in-the-window meal, then I usually wait until I actually get hungry again and I have a proper dinner with hub, which on the weekends often means a glass 'er two of vino.

3. On days that I don't workout, I make them a full on fast until the EW comes. If I'm exercising, I'll do a good ratio'd post workout meal and usually a fruit a while later and try to hold off on chowin' down until dinner avec hub.

So as you can see, it's by no means as per the Warrior way, but it sure works most pleasantly for me, and that first wee meal, with the knowledge that there's no more nibbling until dinner, goes a long way in terms of keeping a lid on the proper amount of cals going in the tank.

Well I don't plan on drinking often. But I just got a new job and want to go out for a celebratory dinner/drinks.

I generally dig keeping the week as on track as possible as far as nutrients go, then I pick one meal on the weekend and enjoy it as I like.

I never get drunk or anything, but I'll definatly induldge in some of the bubbley, or a fine Belgian brew or some velvety red on the weekends.

One benefit, if you go out for drinks after 20 hours of fasting, you'll save money.

But the book mentions that having a glass of wine or beer is fine during the overeating phase. Soldiers throughout history were given huge daily rations of both.

How clean do you all eat on the Warrior Diet?

I tried for about a week and while I noticed the non-weightloss benefits I didn't lose much weight. But to be honest I didn't eat clean at all.

I also didn't exercise...

I sound like a total loser. -- Tomorrow I guess I'll have to eat clean and exercise and see if that helps.

I've been off the Warrior wagon for a few weeks now, eating in a more "intuitive" fashion that includes having my first meal of the day when I actually feel hungry, as opposed to right when I get up no matter what state I may be in.

Any of you guys here still on the plan?
