caloric, and carb stats along with alc. content (US) domestic beers and imports

Heehee, Bud Dry. I remember when it came out, and I was at a party with my work buddies, and the one guy was videotaping and interviewing us. He asked Mark what the difference was between the Bud Dry he was drinking and Bud light.

"Well, Sean, it's a lot less light, and a lot more dry."

I've been drinking scotch more lately, it helps with the caloric intake, especially considering the sheer volume of beer it takes to get me loopy.

icileparadise · 04-19-2008, 08:55 AM

Hey Dingle, try a high proof beer instead of nasty scotch. I admit a lot of them taste like malty gravy but some are really good. Look for 8% proof and try them (not all at once - leave about 2 years in between) They cut the calories and carb intakes right down. For instance a British brew from Hampshire called Gayles' HSB needs only half a pint to be consumed before significant motor skills reduction. Set yourself a limit and you consume way less beer than before only be sure to go to bed timely as they tend to whack you on the back of the head without warning. These are beers to be consumed at home only.

I was following this logic last year and my scotch intake continued to get incrementally higher. I had to pull the plug on the whole alcohol scene.

classicman · 04-20-2008, 11:58 AM

How's it going with that Griff?

Griff · 04-20-2008, 05:06 PM

It hasn't been that tough. The habitual drinking is over, now it's just the occasional situational urge. It got hot here this week and I was thinking cold beer but I kept my head on straight. As long as I don't have that first drink, I'm cool. Thanks for asking man. g

classicman · 04-21-2008, 01:05 PM

Great to hear that! Been going through a similar situation with smoking. I quit last Sept. after 20+ yrs, but lately its been really bugging me. Stress sucks.

Dingleschmutz · 04-21-2008, 03:57 PM

I do like good beers, guess I've never really looked at the alcohol content on them before. All I know is that anything Ice isn't worth the next morning.

But yeah, I should probably just pull the plug on the whole thing, it'd be nice to ditch the tummy.

Urbane Guerrilla · 04-22-2008, 05:31 PM

Well, congratulations on staying sober, Griff.

Alcohol doesn't give me a habit, so I'm luckier than my late uncle. I seem to take more after my rather abstemious father. A glass of wine once or twice a week, beer a little more often if it's in the house, and about once a month a single-malt Scotch, if that often.

And when you're taking Metformin, you're not supposed to get drunk anyway.
