How much is a can?

[luckyman]

112 cals in total...

[Ethel]

How much liquid is the can? A pint? 500 mils?

[luckyman]

400 mil......

[Ethel]

Do you mean you drink 4 cans or 4 pints?

[luckyman]

wots the difference 4 cans or 4 pints...a can poured into a pint glass is a pint to me...

[Ethel]

You could be talking about a tichy little can, or a half litre size can. You've confused the issue talking about cans and pints.

You are drinking the equivalent of 2 normal sized mars bars each night in calories.

If you think eating two mars bars is good for your diet, that's fine.

I don't think it is.

400 mil per can.....500 mil per pint....wowee a little difference.!!...wots the big issue about 100 mil....??? its not that confusing really is it ?

and 4 cans ,112 per can is 448 calories per session...not bad in my book..and thats only twice per week!!! so its not too much...

men are allowed 2400 cals per day after all arent they???

[Ethel]

No, it wouldn't have been an issue if I knew the cans were 400mls to start with. You can buy much smaller and much larger cans of beer.

I'm not psychic.

2400 calories per day will maintain your weight - you need less to lose weight.

As you also need proteins, minerals and vitamins it is better to get your calories from nutritious food than booze

some of these diet drinks cause more retention than others, it depends what artificial sweetener they use, some are more suited to you than others, diet coke uses a different type of sweetener than coke zero for example yet both only contain a few calories per 500ml bottle
