[QUOTE="Grateful, post: 1611521, member: 438800"] The way I think about it, if I were to make this a habit (and it was Big Habit in my pre-diagnosis days) I would have to reduce the carbs somewhere else in my diet, to compensate for the daily 21g in the beer. On my current ultra-low-carb diet that would be almost impossible. So I'd have to try a somewhat larger carb allowance and see if it works for me. So early after my diagnosis (nine months) this is probably not worth it. Also, I lost a very welcome 5 inches from my waistline and much of that was probably "eliminating beer belly." I don't have a problem with having the occasional pint, perhaps once a week, but for some of us that degree of willpower is pretty hard to achieve. I work much better with "all or nothing." [/QUOTE]
