Keeping with my promise in this post, I thought I would pass along the latest diet fad which I saw first on Fox and Friends - the drink beer get thin diet.
Although kinda cool sounding, it's really just a variant of the Atkins low carb diet. The author, Bob Skilnik, has surveyed a bunch of different beers (350, IIRC), and summarized their carb and calorie contents. This book can then be used as an aid as in a more traditional diet so that you know exactly how much caloires and carbs you are ingesting with each beer.
Seems rather logical to me. Or as one reviewer rather succinctly put it,
Indeed, why not?

"If you can once again enjoy small portions of once forbidden food items like potatoes, rice and bread (in moderate amounts, of course) in the mid to later stages of a low carbohydrate diet, why not beer?"
