Ohh. I'd remind myself that the difference isn't that significant as i seem to think. Thank you!
I have a glass of wine every night. It hasn't affected either my 50-pound weight loss or maintenance. The only thing that derails me is consuming too many calories, no matter what form those calories take.
I have to say I think this is kind of a hilarious question. Fundamentally I don't think it makes any difference if you're talking about one night/one serving, so it's more a matter of which one you like better. For me, cake all the way! Dessert is my favorite food group.
(To be honest, if it was a special occasion or something -- I'd have both. )

There's always the fact about alcohol affecting and metabolizing differently that makes this question kinda tricky.. But thanks for sharing your answer!
I use beer to make sure my weight loss isn't too quick.
This made me laugh, and wish I had a like button. LOL

I do like that vodka. And I'm fond of the chocolate wine, as well.
Seriously, I can easier have a glass of wine than the comparably sized equivalent calorie dessert or cake and keep it in my calorie target. I don't care about the metabolism difference, I just know that I have more control over wine than dessert.
Can someone please do an experiment. Or, I'll do it if you like.
I will eat cake. And then many times the calories worth in beer.
I guarantee my weight will be affected less by the beer.
Alcohol and cake is like chalk and cheese.
I actually want to try replacing anything i'd eat after dinner with wine, just to see what happens.

And, also quoting Shannon in ATL, I think I'd have more control over wine than dessert!
