This is only broadly accurate. A shot is between 1oz-2oz typically – I believe these values are for a 1.5oz shot though. Other things to take into account: what proof is the alcohol? What brand (different brands use different recipes)? Is it flavored or spiced?

Also bear in mind the calorie content of your mixers and if you want to drink I highly recommend trying to avoid bars. You have no idea what portions they use because it’s not measured out – and especially at smaller places, it’s common for a bartender to pour a little heavy for a better tip.

I’ve been starving heavily for a long time, but I’m also an alcoholic. For months I would yoyo until I finally cut alcohol out and I’ve been consistently losing since. It sucks but if you want to lose weight. 💁
