I am off the beer
-
Until xmas at least! I have just got on the scales and am horrified! No beer, no takeaways and only healthy home cooking until I am a lot lighter than I am. I am hoping to lose 3 stone. (42lbs or about 19kg).

That's almost a pound a day if you're going to hit your goal by xmas. Far from realistic for 99% of dieters, and well beyond the (1-2lb/week) level where you need to have your doc regularly monitoring your health.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

I have lost twenty four Kgs since moving to OZ! Very little exercise etc... I was a semi-pro rugby player, so have shrunk from 118 Kgs to 95 Kgs in a couple of years - gentle exercise and reduced my food intake by aprox 50%! Haven't given up the grog though!

I doubt he's a light beer drinker; a pint of Guinness[^] has 210 calories, or 16 beers/pound (of weight, you can't even get a pint of the cheapest rotgut for 6 pence :laugh: ); so each pound he wants to shed is probably only a single night of getting stupid drunk.

Just a suggestion, keep a watch on your body fat%. If you just cut your intake your body will drop muscle before fat and you will be set up to gain back your loses and more. If you put on muscle while losing fat more slowly, you'll drop inches more quickly and lose weight faster overall.

Me, too! I love my Guinness, but when I drink too much of it I get the squirts and that just plain burns my arse! Besides, it's expensive at $12 a six pack. I'm off the beer now, at least for Winter, and sticking with scotch. A decently flavored blend that I favor, Clan MacGregor, costs only $15 for 1.75 liters, and that lasts a good two weeks. By comparison, a two week supply of Guinness costs $168, so it's a no-brainer. Of course. weight loss is nothing to me; I don't gain weight unless I work out in a gym or dojo. The most I've weighed in my life was 148 lbs, and it took me 7 years of karate training and 3 years of going to a gym for weight training to reach that level. All of my life before I was stuck at 125 lbs. But one thing I'd like to change is the distribution of mass. Since the surgery I had three years ago, which dropped me 32 lbs to 116, all the weight I've regained has been in the belly. I don't know a good way to move that new mass back up to the shoulders and arms where it used to live. But I'm still looking... :)

I am off the beer for health reasons, but maybe once I've given my liver a break I'll get back on the Guinness. At 8 pints a night, I should achieve a healthy weight gain by Christmas. :cool:

I quit drinking in May. I lost 8 kg in about 3 months, and it bottomed off then. I'm hovering around 81 kg. Wanna get down to 76kg, but it might be a bit much to ask now. I'll settle for 78. But to that end, I have to start cycling psychotically again...

All the weight is just the beer he didn't find the time to pee out yet.

There is truth to this. Most of my weight is Beer Belly, and dropping the booze is going to be significant. Booze makes the liver swell, so coming off it should cause quite a large reduction.
