everclearfan14 asked:
If you stop drinking beer you loose weight. Is there a point in time you stop losing weight b/c of this? Is their like a natural plateau your body hits in terms of weight?

if you stop the intake of anything that has made you put on weight in the first place, then yes it will help you to lose.you do reach plateaus but not due to hitting yr natural weight. read tips on weight loss and exercise programs on this site
That is interesting. I drink about 4 or 5 beers a day almost every day and then, sometime, I may go a month or so without one but my weight never fluctuates (I am 5′ 10″ – 155 pounds). I always assumed the alcohol calories as “empty”. If you lose weight when you stop drinking…great!!!
I love beer have never gained weight from drinking
Well, this isn’t exactly true — if you stopped drinking beer but ate an entire pot roast for dinner each night, you very well might not lose any weight. Weight loss has always been and always will be a function of calories in vs. calories out. Since alcohol has no nutritional value, it’s all calories, so if you were at an equilibrium of intake and burn of calories before, losing the alcohol means you’re at a net loss of calories if you stay at the same activity level as before and all other factors remain the same. At some point, your body will reach a new equilibrium level relative to your caloric intake and you won’t lose weight any more. That actual weight can vary from person to person because of habits, environmental factors, genetics, and lifestyle, so I definitely can’t give you a number.
everclear, a friend of mine name Mike stopped drinking and it has been nearly a year for him now. Since he has stopped, he has been taking vitamins and has been feeling good about himself. I don’t know if it’s the vitamins or just his diet or just all togethor. If your interested, here it is, he’s been buying from here eversince he received it. So yes you do lose weight after you stop drinking, just how much? It could vary. You got big people, you got heavy people, and you got skinny people. Sometimes it may be harder for a heavy person to lose weight than the skinny person trying to gain weight or losing weight at all. It has happen. Amongst his diet, he goes with 3 regular meals a day, just less on meats and more vegetables.
Weight gain/loss is a simple equation: calories in minus calories out divided by 3500.
Each 3500 cals = one pound of weight. So, if you are ‘overdrawn’ by 7000 cals in one week, you’d lose two pounds. If you ‘deposit’ an additional 2000 cals in one week, you gain half a pound.
It doesn’t make any difference whether those cals come from beer, chocolate or sushi.
