Give up beer!?! Search this board and you will find threads talking about the inherent bitterness being oddly pleasant. I have one with dinner (never ever more than two) once a week or so and enjoy it way more than before Tx. I have NO desire to over indulge and get the same vibe from others who have expressed a new found taste for beer. When you have felt as bad as we have why would anyone make themselves feel like crap on purpose?

I have also read posts from folks who have made dramatic changes to their diet including beer and wine and I totally respect that decision too. Hey, if you get seniority in this little club of ours you should be able to do what you please! wink
