But, if you're dead set on losing...Here's my experience: I dropped Beer when I got less active a couple years ago. Only red wine. I also dropped most of the carbs. No pasta, no bread, no potatoes, LOTS of vegetables and failing that psyllium husk. That allowed me to still eat richly and drink and not put on too many pounds. (Now that we've been rehabbing for a while, carbs are back. Wonderful but dense calories. I just feel like we need them working this hard. Weight is staying off so long as I'm up and down a ladder 30 times a day. ) Maybe you can cheat a couple lb's the same way, with few simple carbs and wine instead of Beer. Wine's healthier too. When carb was called for, I would use wild rice or quinoa (which is the worlds most perfect grain/seed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinoa). Remember I maintained weight drinking lots of wine, eating VERY well and amply, and getting insignificant exercise for over a year doing this dietary approach. YMMY, but there it is. BTW, congrats on the job. I know what a worry that can be. Also, thanks for the blogroll. Appreciate it.
