    Telegraph: Beer’s not to blame for weight gain
    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

        I. LOVE. BEER.

        20 minutes and I will start drowning myself in the stuff.

          "Your spare tyre is probably due to all those pork scratchings you ate alongside your pint or even due to your breakfast orange juice which, health clubs please note, does contain fat.” "

          I have lost nearly three stone this year and I put most of it down to not drinking fruit juice for breakfast and lunch like I used to do every day.

            Orange juice = empty calories and tooth decay.

            I think the comment that beer isn't fattening is slightly misleading though. When you go out on Friday and suck down 10 pints that's close to an extra 2,000 calories, nearly an extra day's worth.

                It's OK if you ride your bike to and from the pub though.
                While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                  The inevitable fight after the 10 pints burns off most of the extra calories.
