i'v noticed that when i'v bin out with my friends drinking etc. i never have much of an appetite for about a day afterwards. (not because im hungover tho). So i was wondering, can alcohol act as an appetite supressant?
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road. Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go.

    I don't get hangovered, but I think it can surpress the apetite.

    I know that alchohol is a depressant, not a stimulant which gets you hyped up and burns off energy (which will make you hungry).

    Another thing I know is that it has a lot of calories in; I think a Breezer's got about 244 calories in and a shot of Baily's got 180 calories.

    Maybe it surpresses the activity of the gastric juices inside you, which could be why drinking on an empty stomach can make you ill.
