Men, Beer Belly Be Gone, But You Can Keep Your Beer!

Men are you sick of hearing about how fine you used to be and how the only thing fine about you now is the wine that you drink? If the answer is yes, that is all about to change, as I can show you how to get rid of your beer fat without ever having to give up the beer! But let’s get down to business by discussing what a beer belly really is and understand what really causes it.

So, what is a beer belly? A beer belly is defined as a lump of fat thats taken up residence between your chest and what used to be your waist. Is it caused by beer? No. Science has proven the beer belly is fat caused by calorie build up, resulting from unhealthy diets and sedentary lifestyles. The abdomen is where men have their greatest deposit of fat cells so, if the body takes in a lot of calories and neglects to burn them through exercise, the body deposits that fat right in your stomach.

Now that you know where your beer belly reallly comes from (probably that fried chicken you’ve been eating) you get start figuring out what you, if anything, you are going to do to get back in shape. You can begin by working on the fat cells that are multiplying in your stomach. While beer is not the direct cause of your belly, it can contribute. Alcohol can make you hungrier (think about your last time at happy hour at a local bar). So if you stopped drinking as much, you’d be taking a step in the right direction.

Cut the beer and you cut the increased appetite, but since this article is about How to Get Rid of the Beer Belly without Giving Up Beer, I wont try to convince you to stop. But you need to switch to either a beer with fewer calories or exercise more than you drink to balance out the increased calories. Exercising more than you drink sounds too much like hard work, so well skip that too and just focus on reducing the amount of calories taken in by looking at the best beers for your waist.

The first thought that probably comes to your mind when somebody says low calorie beer is those light beers that taste terrible. This article is not going to try to convince you of those beers, because we all know that real men don’t drink such girly drinks.

First on the list is a nice and dark Guiness Draught, with 125 calories and 10 carbohydrates; this is no light beer but it is low on calories and you don’t have to drink tons of them to make up for a lack in taste. Second on the list is Beamish Irish Stout, with 131 calories and it’s still full of flavor all while making your waist happy. Third on the list is Busch, with 133 calories and about 10 carbohydrates. So drink responsibly and get rid of that belly!

So now you have the key to getting rid of your beer belly without having to but down the bottle. So the next time your wife or girlfriend tells you to get off the couch and lose some weight, go grab yourself another cold one, pop the bottle open and tell her you’re working on it now!
