It’s Christmas which means lots of boozy parties. But a dietitian has revealed there’s one alcoholic drink with more calories than a cheeseburger.
But the good news is wanting to keep on the straight and narrow doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy yourself.
“All wines and prosecco brands vary in alcohol and sugar content, but a glass of prosecco is likely to be less than half the calories of a large glass of wine. This Christmas, consider switching out a glass of white wine for a low calorie glass of prosecco.

Beer can be a big contributor to weight gain,” Nunns said.
Nunns said: “If you are trying to manage your weight, this is a really easy swap to make and the taste is virtually the same. “So it’s really is no surprise that, dependent on quantities used, this drink can reach 400kcals if not more!” Nunns said.
