Man On Strict ‘Beer Diet’, Drinks Only Beer For 46 Days & Loses A Whopping 20 Kgs!

Beer lovers rejoice! You can now counter anyone who says alcohol makes you gain weight with a proper living example! Del Hall, a resident of Ohio works at Cincinnati’s Fifty West Brewing Company decided to give up on solid food and commit himself to Lent (a solemn religious observance in the Christian liturgical calendar) for 46 days to shed some weight.

He switched to a completely strict ‘beer diet’ and fast on other foods with dedication and without cheating even a single meal for a total 46 days.

And the result? He lost nearly 44 pounds (20 kgs) in a matter of just 46 days!

Talking about his beer diet to Daily mail, Hall said, “Being master brewers, they decided they would take a popular style of beer in Germany, bock beer, make it extra hearty and that would be their liquid bread and that’s what they call it. So the monks in Bavaria, they would call doppelbock liquid bread and basically, it would sustain them through the 46 days of lent.”

“It’s not just possible monks did it, it’s pretty plausible. I wasn’t sure if the beer was going to allow me to experience all those things that fasting does but it absolutely has.,” he elaborated.

Hall, however, said it wasn’t easy to follow the strict diet but he controlled his cravings. “It’s not just possible monks did it, it’s pretty plausible. I wasn’t sure if the beer was going to allow me to experience all those things that fasting does but it absolutely has,” he said.

He further added that, “I know that I have integrity and I did the entire challenge without a single cheat. That was really cool and I was really proud of the fact that I did that since obviously, you know, I’m overweight and I’ve indulged a lot in the past so to take on something like this and to do it and to do it with such integrity I’m really proud of that fact,”

“If I reach for something really bad for me I can pass it up because I didn’t eat for 46 days one meal’s not going to kill me,” he said. Hall says that he feels younger and healthier after having the beer diet!

Hope all your myths about the ‘fattening beer’ have now been busted!
