I need to lose 20lbs this summer

[UNCjigga]

How can I do this, but still drink a REAL beer (no 'Lite' crap) every other night?

edit: should mention that I lost 20lbs over 3-4 months last year, but gained 15 back after starting grad school due to bad diet and inactivity.

Easy, drink liquor instead. Straight, to cut down on mixer calories - tequila is good for this.

Edit: if that doesn't appeal to you diet soda makes an acceptable mixer.

running

lots and lots of running.

But I like BEER, not liquor. I mean, I enjoy the occasional Maker's Mark shot or two, but the thought of drinking vodka tonics all summer is...frightening. I love beer for the taste.

Go with the Beer and Ice Cream Diet.

 

[Nomada]

Drink beer. Lot's of it. Forget to eat. Beer is pretty calorie heavy though huh?

No. That wasn't her weight-lost solution. She just engage in sexual intercourse every night. Believe me, I helped her with the program.

I have a diet that works wonders. No tricks, no gimmicks, no bullsh1t.

Discipline

No pain, no gain

Edit: I don't much care for vodka either, but I can drink tequila till I can't stand up and am speaking Spanish. Everyone's different, find a liquor you like & stick with it.

drink 8 glasses of water everyday, stop the coke/beer.

In theory this sounds great, but beer and alcohol are calorically exactly the same, empty calories.

Sometimes it isnt the beer that makes you so fat, its snacking and binging on crappy food that beer makes you crave, and of course while your inhibitions are down, its very easy to give in.

Drink lots of water, don't snack on junk food...(ie: eat fruit instead), balance your diet, and do a lot of cardio like running on nights you're not drinking. Also, even though it takes a lot less liquor to get you messed up 1 shot of vodka is still ~100 calories.

True, but the potential for snacking is a constant regardless of what you're drinking, while liquor has fewer calories than beer... I think something like 60 calories a shot?

I always thought is was about 100, or equal to a "lite" beer.

I like beer, I like the taste. I don't like liquor or wine.
