How come all alcoholics are not extremely overweight?

788 views

Alcoholic drinks have a shit ton of calories, but I personally know many skinny people who drink an insane amount of beer & liquor. Even if they didn’t eat anything, the calories from the drinking alone should be enough for them to put on weight. How come they don’t? Does the body lose it’s ability to take in the energy properly if it’s mostly coming from alcohol?

I was a heavy alcoholic for like 15 years, (two years sober now) and Im skinny as hell. I just drank. Sleep, work, drink, and repeat. No eat. So I was heavily malnourished, getting all my calories from alcohol, depression, and anger lol.
