You feel the subject is important enough to start a thread, yet you don't have a gut. Hmmmm.

Try excercise and cutting down on the Monte Cristos'. I'd say stop drinkin beer but I wouldn't want to be unreasonable.

Or take some diet tips from this dude.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXp-ZJTMIzU

I have developed a little gut. Cutting out the morning pastry should see it off.

I too have a little gut, doesn't really bother me too much but I've got a blind date on thursday with a much younger woman. Do I hold it in all evening or buy a corset?

Yeah, I have quite a gut! I have fairly skinny forearms, so maybe I should apply for a job as a sideshow freak.

Ever heard of diet and exercise? That said, my gut keeps growing. I think I weigh more than I have in my life. Let me know if you come up with something, floop.

I've recently lost approx. 25 lbs from excersizing, eating less (and better) and, the big one, drinking a shit load of water. 4-6 bottles a day. I'm still not at my goal (35 lbs this year, then 35 next year), but i'm starting to see a difference. I wish i took before/after photos of my gut.

Lately its been slacking b/c of work being so busy (12+ hour days), but generally my workout is 4 days a week at the gym - 45-75 minutes of cardio, and then 30 minutes or so of lifting, alternating back/shoulders, chest/arms, legs and abs.

I sound like such a meathead.

One important thing is to have a clean liver as the liver helps regulate metabolism. Basically if you keep polluting your body your liver is working constantly to clean out and it doesn't get a chance to work on your metabolism. So its good to take some antioxidants. Things like apple cider vinegar, milk thistle and green tea help to clean things up. I like green tea the best, if you get the right kind it is the be all end all of antioxidants. Matcha green tea is ideal or some good kind from a healthfood store. Most storebought brands have very little EGCG compared to matcha.

Of course water is great, the more the better. One trick is to drink ice cold water. It'll cool down your insides to the point that your body thinks it needs to speed up its metabolism.

For the guys. Beer consumption lowers your testosterone. It takes a couple days to clear out of your body. So if you chronically drink beer you will have chronically low testosterone. Testosterone is responsible for building muscle without enough you'll be all soft.

And of course the old adage of breakfast is the most important meal of the day. If you skip breakfast your body thinks its starving and goes into fat storing mode. So what you eat later will most likely be converted to fat. Best to eat fibre in the morning.

do you consider a 12-pack a night "chronic" drinking?

Haha, yup.
You'll never ever lose the gut if you drink a case a night no matter how well you eat or how much exercise you do.
Mike almost cried when I told him that.

I've cut down my beer consumption to 'special occasions' pretty much. Which means:

-next week's Mets home opener (and other baseball games taken in person)
-Irish-themed holidays (and most major holidays)
-birthdays of friends/family/myself
-the Reid Paley CD release show next friday and other such shows

I figure if i cut out the "at home watching the baseball game" beers and then "every meal i eat out" beers, it should help quite a bit. I've also given up all soda, and only really drink OJ, Green Tea and Coffee (and only max one cup of each a day) besides water.

i stopped eating pizza. that seems to have helped. i grew up eating a slice when ever possible. i'm not talking crap big cheese slop but the good stuff. it adds up though even when it is the very best. lets see bread which is another natural resource here has taken a back seat. fiber lets things move on and out and yogurt helps too. beer drinking keeps the gut in check so does tobaco as a combo they make a nice appetite suppressant. put your heart into it and i'm sure your gut will follow.

i've lost almost 10 lbs since january just by cutting out corn syrup and i wasn't even trying to lose weight. it's not cheap, though. corn syrup has weasled its way into everything from saltine crackers to tomato sauce so i have to buy overpriced organic crap or make it from scratch (lazy).


i hate anyone who doesn't like me.

Eat more lowfat (or no fat) foods. This is actually pretty easy. There are lots of good fat-free options in any grocery store.

Breakfast is often the fattiest meal of the day for some people. It used to be for me, at least (doughnuts every morning). Today my typical breakfast is either oatmeal I make with old-fashioned oats, fat-free soymilk, and apple juice (about 2 grams of fat, from the oats) OR Kashi Autumn Wheat cereal (no fat at all... and one of the few no sodium/very very low sugar cereals findable in non-health food stores, too) with fat-free soymilk. Both taste great.

Floop if you're sitting in front of a computer asking how to get rid of a gut you should probably just love your gut for what it is.

Heh, that topic was hilarious and so long ago.
Are you saying I'm lame now or something???

I sometimes drink bancha because matcha can be difficult to find its hella expensive. Matcha is green tea but its been ground into a powder. Preparing a cup is a bit different. Since its been ground you end up drinking the powdered leaves and therefore more EGCG antioxidants.

Matcha tastes good with maple syrup.

I wish I'd discovered yoga and pilates earlier in life. They cured many chronic back pain problems.

If you can't play hockey 2 or 3 times a week (in which case you can drink as much beer as you want and still lose weight :) then...

Two easy things that help a lot:

1) Don't drink regular sodas. They are @200 calories each (more than light beer). Switch to diet sodas or drink unsweetened teas instead. Think of it as if you drink 3 or 4 regular sodas a day, it's basically another full meal in calories. If you're drinking those oversized fast food sodas or big gulps, it's even worse.

2) Cut mayonnaise from your diet. Put mustard on your sandwich instead. this goes for all mayonnaise-like sauces and spreads. If you still eat fast food and they put some sauce on your sandwich, wipe most of it off with a napkin. This makes a huge difference in the amount of calories you're taking in (and the shitty trans fats you want to avoid anyway).

A good way to lose weight is to go out and buy a load of chicken, then eat it raw. Guaranteed results, although not the most comfortable way to lose weight. I got food poisoning a few years ago... was shitting at least 20 times a day and couldn't eat a thing, but after 4 days I had lost a load of weight. It was amazing.

China makes anyone become a fat bastard... I put on 20kgs in the first 6 months of arriving here... cheap oily food and beer that is cheaper than water. Not I have pretty much lost 10kgs of that but losing the rest is well difficult. I like eating and drinking too much, plus it's too polluted outside to even think about exercise. Running in the gym is the most boring thing in the world, plus I have been queered up a couple of times weight training by humonguous gym instructors who could have easily torn me apart... so I have resigned myself to being a 82kg semi fat bastard... better that than getting porked by a less than semi-literate body builder.
