Men give up beer to lose weight!

When several women get together, they often talk food. It’s all code for problems of self-image. When we eat too much, we put on weight and that is very dissapointing. It’s like that bit of Latin geeks use, quid pro quo, which actually means something for nothing. So we get this extra weight for that extra food. Cause and effect.

To reverse weight gain is very easy. Just eat less. Except it isn’t easy which is why there’s a whole industry out there to sell us diets. If you can’t help yourself with diets, there’s always the pills like Acomplia. All the clinical trials have shown this top European drug shaves an average 10% of your body weight and slims down those waistlines. I know no man who’d like to talk about diet with his friends. You never see them in a huddle comparing the results of only eating grapefruits as against cabbage soup. If they do get worried about their weight, they tend to do it behind closed doors. Most men I know walk in the house, open the refrigerator and pick out a cold one. It looks like ritual to mark the end of the hunter phase - gather a beer. But now men are giving up beer. They’ve done the math. They know how many calories are in each bottle or can. If that fails, there’s always a cold Acomplia.
