Anyone else LOSE weight becoming an alcoholic?

A few years ago after my friend died i got really depressed and drank a 12 pack of Blue Moon a day for almost two years. My neighbors nicknamed me Blue Moon. It was bad, because on top of that i was also downing a Four Roses bottle of bourbon every two days. Its not like I ate healthy (fried rice for breakfast, etc). But everyone i know that drinks even half as much as me ballooned up in their 20s.
