Ive sort of resigned myself to the fact that I will never be able to stop drinking alchohol and a by product is getting a beer gut. So if you are a regular at the bar what drink would be the least likely to enlarge your gut even further.

Yep go for something lower sugar - dry wine is better than beer, but spirits with zero sugar drinks like diet coke or neat is best

I tried this theory. There's only so much gin and slimline tonic a man can drink though.

So I went back to the pints and joined a gym.

Stop eating and sleeping. The pounds soon fall off. You can drink as much as you like.

Vodka and Diet Coke is the only way forward that I have ever seen. Even with some alcoholics; ahem... I meant bankers!

Wear less in winter, turn the central heating down, you'll generate body heat to keep you warm, takes a while to get going though and it's soooo nice to be warm again.
