There are posts on here about the danger of drinking in ketosis as your body is already under a lot of pressure- I advise you read them.

However both times I've done it and had one night out where I have had 6 drinks with a slimline- been fine other than hungover the next day and lost weight- but please be warned that it can be risky...

You wont die if you gain weight, if you drink when youre in ketosis gaining weight is the least of your worries quite honestly

If youre staying in ketosis tell your friends youre taking medication which means you cant drink if you 'must' drink then knock yourself out of ketosis and accept you may gain weight

Hi Jenny my niece's 21st is on Saturday & to be honest iv been dreading it.. But as I'm getting stronger each day on this it's not bothering me.. I'll drink sparkling water out of a wine glass & bonus I can drive

If you eat protein and no carbs youll still be in ketosis though so you still have the problem with alcohol. If youre going to have drink you need to have carbs, get out of ketosis, then have your 2 nights out and start afresh. DONT have protein only for goodness sake if youre having alcohol... youre endangering your health.
