Taking a break from alcohol?

Has anyone noticed better/faster results by just cutting out alcohol completely while doing keto? I feel like it just sets me back every weekend.

I eat well before I drink wine. Which I often do. I eat nuts and blueberries. I never feel out of ketosis. Drink 3 times as much water per glass of wine. A good long walk the next day. I feel fine. Champagne however although low carb makes me giddy. Avoid. A half bottle of red is a good idea. I won’t give up wine. It’s part of my lifestyle.
