You are obviously not drinking enough. Try to triple your intake and see what happens.

If you drink and don't do home sport afterwards, you won't stay slim.

Alcohol is very high in calories. However, if you drink enough, the whole concept of calories and their counting becomes laughable. Literally.

I am certain that there are more variables in the equation than alcohol.

Whiskey/gin/vodka/tequila neat or on the rocks. Still has plenty of calories because your body derives energy from ethanol; but beer and wine have other sugars and carbohydrates that give you more calories and do nothing for your buzz.

Paul is the manager, not the owner of Cuvee.

Anyway, Pure Blonde Beer and Plenty of wine from Cuvee will help keep the weight off! Smile

I would like to file a complaint with Mat and the brewers of Pure Blonde.

While the Shed was a go....I drank, on average, 10-12 bottles of the "supposedly good for your weight" sham called Pure Blonde every visit.

And countless more at the Boo....

Never lost a freakin' ounce.....

I want my money back!!!

That is exactly the problem. If you drink on an empty stomach, the alcohol will be absorbed into your blood with a faster rate. Never drink on an empty stomach.
