However, a glass of red wine (4 oz) has about 90 calories and 14 gr alcohol, while the light white wine version has about 52 calories and 8 gr alcohol. Imagine, the US Department of Health and Human Services, which publishes a guidelines every 5 years, considers "moderate drinking" a daily intake of one drink for women and two for men.

A regular soft drink has about 150 empty calories, including 15 teaspoons of sugar, and cause gases and bloated feeling. On the other hand, drinking diet soft drinks might have 0 calories but still they cause gases. If you must have a soft drink, then go for diet ones... but preferably avoid both.
