No Bingeing, All Purging

 

Want a surefire way to lose weight in 2011?  Want to be able to do it without going on some kind of special diet regimen or excessive exercise?  Easy!  Just stop binge drinking!

 

Not so easy after all, now is it?

 

A recent article posted by the Web site CalorieLab reports that studies were done to determine that if you completely cut out binge drinking, you could lose 10 pounds a year. 

 

Of course, what they define as binge drinking may not exactly be what you consider binge drinking. 

 

In any event, they supplied a link to an alcohol fact sheet that shows how much alcohol and how many calories and carbohydrates are in a single serving of different types of beers, wines and spirits.  A small version is in the graphic below, but a larger, more legible version may be found here

For the entire article with details about the findings in the various studies, please click on the link below:
