Stop Drinking Weight Loss Calculator
Giving up alcohol? You’re not just improving your health—you could also lose weight, save money, and cut thousands of calories from your monthly intake.
This Stop Drinking Weight Loss Calculator shows you how many calories you’re saving daily, how much weight you could potentially lose, and even how much cash you’ll keep in your wallet.
🔍 Why Use a Stop Drinking Weight Loss Calculator?
Many people don’t realize how much alcohol contributes to daily calorie intake and weight gain. Alcoholic beverages—especially beer, wine, and cocktails—are often loaded with empty calories. These calories don’t provide any nutrition but do increase body fat over time.
By quitting alcohol, you’re not just cutting calories—you’re removing an entire source of unnecessary consumption. This calculator helps you:
- Estimate daily calories saved
- Project weight loss over weeks or months
- Calculate money saved from fewer drinks
- See your new estimated body weight
⚙️ How It Works
The calculator uses your inputs to estimate:
- Calories per drink based on type (beer, wine, spirits, cocktails, etc.)
- Drinks per day (your average alcohol consumption)
- Activity level, which influences your metabolism
- Duration of time since quitting
From there, it calculates:
- Daily and total calories saved
- Estimated weight loss in lbs
- Your new estimated weight
- Total money saved
🧠 Formula Basics
- Calories from alcohol = drinks per day × calories per drink
- Total calories saved = daily calories × 30 days × number of months
- Estimated weight loss = total calories saved ÷ 3,500 (approx. calories per pound)
- Adjusted for activity level using a metabolic multiplier
- Money saved = drinks per day × cost per drink × number of days
🍺 Calorie Breakdown by Drink Type
| Drink Type | Calories per Drink | Avg Cost per Drink |
|---|---|---|
| Beer (12 oz) | 150 cal | $4.50 |
| Wine (5 oz) | 125 cal | $8.00 |
| Spirits (1.5 oz) | 100 cal | $12.00 |
| Cocktail (8 oz) | 300 cal | $10.00 |
| Mixed Drinks | 200 cal | $7.50 |
🔄 Example Calculation
Let’s say:
- You drink 3 cocktails daily

- Total Calories Saved: 162,000 cal
