While what was said is true-one bad meal can affect you negatively, be sure not to let it ruin all your future efforts in the "battle of the bulge". This is a major characteristic of the typical "yo-yo dieter".... The person is eating healthy, working out, and perhaps one day, has a bad day or some bad news and eats some horrible 1,700 calorie forbidden dessert...And that prompts that same person to feel guilty and think it's "all downhill" from there and continues eating poorly instead of picking him or herself up and work back into a healthy lifestyle.

We all have our bad days-just don't let them keep you down!

Drinking moderately has been proven by many doctors, as well as the New England Journal of Medicine, to be a healthy component of longevity.

Health & fitness go hand in hand. In fact, moderate consumption of alcohol, including beer, has been proven to reduce the effects of high cholesterol, heart disease, some forms of cancer.

The average can of beer has over 100 calories. Drinking one beer is equivalent to eating a chocolate chip cookie. Drinking four is equal to eating a Big Mac Hamburger.

In order to lose weight, you have to burn off these extra calories as well as the other calories that you ate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Even the lightest of beers has the empty calories of alcohol, which is the cause of poor health if done in excess and without a regular exercise routine.

Unfortunately, too many Americans live under one of the worst stereotypes placed on a human being – the BEER BELLY, or as I call it, the inactivity belly.

If you add a fitnessbuilding program to your lifestyle you will burn those excess calories. If you can add exercise into your schedule for 20-30 minutes a day, your daily consumption of alcohol (1-2 beers) will not have any additional impact on your gut.
