    I definitely still loss from it but I can say that I think my results would be alot better if I laid off from drinking so much on the weekend...I am currently doing a challenge just to see what a ddiference it will make with No drinking...Hard yes but I know it will be worth it in the end...and hopefully I can minimize it to maybe 1 or 2 every now and then...

    A life without (good) beer is hardly worth living.

    I definitely drink it, just not every day.

    Yeah! I had to stop drinking beer every day. The weekends are fair game. I shouldn't, but I don't eat as much on weekends because I know I am going to drink beer. I've found lean protiens and low carbs work for me.

    Currently drinking a cold beer...

    I just make sure it fits with my calories, which usually means going for a big hike at the weekend so I can drink lots on Saturday night!

    i used to be a beer drinker back in the day and I was thin then. I drank some pretty good low cal beers. There are some out there that don't taste too bad. Also, if you exercise it may afford you the calories for drinks. I do however, know people who did not eat enough and drank beer who got Cihrrosis. Moderation is the key I beieve, (though I did my share.)

    Easily. Beer is extremely light. Just don't drink more than two ina day, even if they are light. :drinker:

    Yes, I drank beer and still do...2-3 a night sometimes several times a week. I will not give up my beer. I still lost weight and now that I am so close to my goal, I am pretty much maintaining. I swap it out sometimes with red wine, but I am usually under my calorie goal as I exercise a lot almost every day.

    Yes, I drink beer and still lose weight. I count it in my daily intake. I also drink Micholob Ultra. Yeah, I know, it's water to most.

    I go to the bar once a week with my coworkers... I snack during the day and have a hearty meal at the bar. Include your beer calories with your daily allowance. I'm not light beer drinker either... gotta have my Guinness!!!

    Hi :)

    That race was death-defying, and I don't mean that in a good way! I don't think I'll be running it again, though I might lose my resolve when I see next year's sweatshirt and register for the half :)

    PS I drank beer afterward. Right now I'm obsessed with Indeed Brewing's Daytripper and Summit's Saga. You're a local so you have access to far better choices than Mich Ultra! Get with it ;)

    Hell yeh, I love beer, heavy gear too, stuff with twigs and grit and WAY too much alcohol in.

    My mainstay is red wine but I will throw in the occasional large bottle of something Belgian and brutal.

    I enjoy, I drink, I stay sane ...

    i like beer, wine, and other such spirits. i've learned to enjoy them in moderation, because too much of them can impede weight loss.
