I just posted on my blog about how I am a beer snob so those low-carb beers just won't cut it for me.
(read about it here: http://www.businessoflosingweight.com/2011/05/challenges-i-like-beer-and-im-a-snob/ )

What are your biggest temptations in trying to lose weight?

(ps- my second one is country ham biscuits!)

    I am totally with you on the beer snob front. My husband brews delicious varieties (incredible IPAs, Coffee Porters, Oatmeal stouts...wow!) and I just can't do the ultra's or 55's. The closest I get is Sam Light. I dig Irish Stouts, so I'll drink a Murphy or Guiness since they are (relatively) low in calories, I just limit how much I have.

    I'm a beer snob too! Nice to meet you!
  • Hot chips with tomato sauce and mayonnaise.. and alcohol! I used to drink a bit of whiskey with Coke, rum with Coke (Havana Club in particular) and wine (mainly Riesling).. and I could keep up with the guys as far as drinking beer goes! But I've had to cut all of it out and now, sad to say, I'm just a low-carb beer drinker!

    Joining the chorus of the beer snobs... it's definitely been hard for me to cut back on the intake! I went from consuming a beer every other day or so to limiting to mostly weekends. But when I have a beer you can be damned sure that it's not going to be some InBev crap. When I'm out at bars that don't carry beer I can truly enjoy and savour, I often choose not to drink at all... so maybe it's a blessing in disguise? Haha.

    Wine, but I'm not a snob. Whatever's free/cheap and dry is fine with me. :laugh:

    I think I need to open a low calorie pizza delivery business. Sounds like I would make a fortune.
