Ed bursting into tears shortly after drinking his first, because the curtains are so beautiful.

IndustryStandard Im right into my craft beer so on a normal weekend night in i’d knock back say 6 cans, which must be over 1200 cals

If you’re putting weight on and blaming the beer here, there are issues elsewhere. Do you ever get out of bed?

Think it’s the deep fried Mars bars IS needs to cut out.

Definitely other factors in play, which I need to address, but taking one “fatty route” at a time. No1 is beer as i’m nailing loads at the mo and have been over the last few months.

IndustryStandard 6 cans a week isn’t loads.

IndustryStandard

Thats a normal night. Prob x3 per week and may have about 10 on a session. Thats indoors. Couple that with eating shit and doing no exercise due to injuries ( 15yrs running have caught up with my back/calf muscles) and its not a good combo. Interested to hear if any alternative drinking strategies have helped people lose the timber.

IndustryStandard Any thoughts on trading beers for spirit and mixer combo in order to reduce calorie intake? Or is it all swings and roundabouts? Ive put a fair bit of timber on over the last 2 yrs and need to make some changes.

Im right into my craft beer so on a normal weekend night in i’d knock back say 6 cans, which must be over 1200 cals. Thinking of switching to say 3 GnTs which must have the same alcohol content and far less cals, no? My wife thinks if I go down that route I will just end up drinks 8 GnTs and have a drink problem. She may not be wrong……

Anyone tried similar calorie reduction tactics with success/no admission into rehab?

IndustryStandard Nugenix and White Claw will have you completed sorted!

IndustryStandard Yeah, doesn’t the replacement T basically fuck your body so it can’t produce it’s own and you become dependent on the pills?

IndustryStandard

zackster Will be White Goodman in no time.

zackster

Amps does Frank Thomas look dependent to you? Do your wives a favor lads, and add a boost to your workout routine!

bosstrabs I expect your favourite is the one with ‘floral botanicals’.

Ed’s choice is the Mediterranean… it’s got a strange neck compared to the others.

Lost a kilo since Monday. No booze, sleep well and exercise - my Whoop analytics are off the charts already.

wrongun

Along_the_Wire Sounds good but have to ask how much you’d put on over Christmas?

Also intrigued by Whoop ….. got a basic Fitbit and its shit for sleep/ exercise analysis - recommend?

Mad_Cyril

Along_the_Wire Must’ve been a massive cable?

wrongun I was fine til I went to my dad’s on the 1st and basically piled on 3kg over that weekend. 87 now, need to be 82/83, but I’ve been here many times before and the cutting back on the booze and training sorts it right out.

I’d definitely recommend Whoop, but make sure you get 4.0 - the 3.0 just wasn’t accurate enough for activities - that’s much better now, but it’s at its best for sleep, recovery and HRV metrics which are really important to me. It’s a subscription model, the actual wrist thing is free, but it’s a bit lumpy unless you commit - £30 a month for six months, but drops to £18 for 18 months.

Also means you can wear a normal watch and not look so much of a cunt with the strap on the other wrist. The app is great.
