I eat pretty healthy but I also really like my beer. What is the best way to slow down on this habit.

    I split beers with my husband now, and alternate with seltzer. That way if we split 2 beers it's really just 1. Also, I'm a hop head, so I find that splitting 2 really flavorful/hoppy beers is satisfying.

    Switch to light beer. Natural Light is the lowest calorie beer I've found. Michelob Ultra is less, but it's more expensive. Also, water in between beers helps. Good luck! :)

    Keeping in mind that I have a one bottle max due to a low tolerance level, my opinion is that, if I wanted to, I could fit it in daily while losing weight. And I drink regular beer (Guinness or a porter), not light beer. I would think that most men could do the same or could fit in 2-3 bottles 2-3 times a week.

    How much beer do you drink? I reserve 300 calories for beer/liquor daily

    I drink Busch light which is only 95 calories per can but it seems like once I drink one I can't stop. I am gonna try and only drink one day a week. Now I like going out after work and having a few.
