Ohio man loses 34 pounds in one month by drinking only BEER during Lent
2019-04-07
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Del Hall, who works at the Fifty West Brewing Company in Cincinnati, Ohio committed to consuming only beer for the entire 46 days of Lent

  • He's down 33.5 pounds so far, and will keep up his ale-only diet through Easter

  • Hall started his journey on Ash Wednesday, on March 6, and he said he will not eat solid food again until Easter, which falls on April 21

  • He said he's chosen this fast in the spirit of monks who observed the sacred season by drinking only bock beer in the 1600s
Mr. Wife speaks highly of the beer produced by Fifty West.

#11  A Welshman lost many a weekend;
Athletically sleek was his beak-end!
When alcohol beckoned,
He followed, but reckoned
His belly and backside had thickened.

#7  On my first trip to Ireland my diet was a moderate breakfast, snake and Pygmy pie, Er, steak and kidney pie, and 5 pints of draught Guinness per day. Lost 6 lb in three weeks.
