OMG 171 ca Blue Moon Beer!

hope_khm

Just logged my first beer into MFP. About had a heart attack when the 171 calories came up - I HAD NO IDEA. Needless to say I completely lost my appetite for another. So now I'm having a SoBe water with a better understanding why I'm so overweight..... I used to like beer

It could be worse. I hate beer so I drink Smirnoff Ice. The raspberry burst flavor is 245 cals for one bottle. :grumble:

Yep, Blue Moon was my beer of choice until I starting logging them. I'll still have one once in a while, but not as often as I used to.

I feel you!! We went out with friends this afternoon and when i ordered a water they all heckled me so I said ok ok one bacardi breezer cooler..came home logged it in.....220 calories-- yikes.

Darn peer pressure lol....

Found myself drinking white wine spritzer with soda water trying to be good, found out that my boss drinks the same, but has a splash of beer in the top so that it looks like a beer.... :laugh:

Try a Stella. Great beer with only 120ish calories per bottle!

MGD 64 is only 64 calories...

I drink Jim Beam - 69 calories per ounce!!

LOL...be thankful it's not the Blue Moon Winter Abbey Ale. I just started MFP 5 days ago and found out it's 180 calories!!!!! Good luck on your journey.

Oh, my greatest regret when I started this journey was the SEVERE decline in my beer consumption. I am a big Sam Adams fan and my favorite beer is Sam Adams Octoberfest. It is only out between late August and mid-November. So, I buy it in multiple cases and store it in my basement (keep a 12 pack in the fridge). I started my weight loss journey on 11/10/2010 and at that time I had 4 cases of beer. I have only had 12 beers since. I should sell my beer to friends. It is worth its weight in gold as it isn't available for another six months. **sigh**

By the way, it is 180 calories a bottle.

I know! I just about cried when I saw my favourite beer was something like that. And the calorie count of wine is similar.

LOL, part of my winter pudge is from Blue Moon. Having one right now with my thai.

I KNOW!! :frown: Such a bummer. I about died when I logged a Blue Moon earlier this month. I prefer on draft to bottle though. So I switched back to bud lite lime when I want a beer...usually with mexican food. Guess I'll be going back to my skinnier drinks like vodka or patron on the rocks with a splash of tonic and lemon and lime. :bigsmile:
