Drinking heavy and dark beers
Im planning on losing some weight this summer and im a huge fan of microbeers. Is it possible to still lose about 20-30 pounds and still drink these heavy beers. (usually only on fridays and sats i drink about 8-20 between the 2 days) Or will i have to force myself to drink coors lite or miller lite.

Re: Drinking heavy and dark beers
There is only so much one should be forced to sacrifice... If you are only drinking on weekends I don't think the difference between lite crappy beers and good dark beers will be enough to make or break your diet.. Yes you will be putting in a few extra calories but not enough to make that drastic of a switch

Many battles have been fought and won by soldiers
nourished on beer. --Frederick the Great of Prussia His Majesty was brought up on beer, and so were both his ancestors and officers. Many battles have been fought and won by soldiers nourished on beer, and the King does not believe that coffee-drinking soldiers can be relied upon to endure hardships in case of another war." Frederick the Great of Prussia (1777)

Re: Drinking heavy and dark beers
Stout beers (is that what you meant by "dark" or "heavy"?)often have lower alcohol content, and therefore lower calorie content. I'm not sure it's as low as "lite" beers, though.
Not very helpful, huh? -McGee

Re: Drinking heavy and dark beers
I don't think losing water weight (the wearing sweatshirts part) is as important as burning calories (the running part).
