Beerhouse: An Ohio resident lost a month on 15 kg, using only beer
Del Hall from Ohio decided to creatively approach nutrition during Lent. He stated that he had decided to become like the monks of 1600-s, who during the whole post used an extremely strong beer of dark sorts. For the first month, Hall lost 33,5 pounds (about 15 kg).
“It was the liquid bread of the monks that sustained them throughout the 46 days of Lent,” Hall is quoted as saying by The Daily Mail.
On March 6, Hall weighed 292,5 pounds (132,6 kg), since then his weight has dropped to 259 pounds (117,4 g8 kg) - the man records his achievements in videos on YouTube.
“I haven’t stepped on the scale since Thanksgiving, so seeing 292,5 was kind of hard,” Hall said in the first video he shared when he started his journey. “This is probably the heaviest I’ve weighed in about six years.”
However, this figure has decreased significantly in 31 day, and it seems that Hall has begun to feel better. According to him, he began to sweat less, his overall body temperature dropped.
As a Fifty West Brewing Compay sales director in Cincinnati, Hall has access to a variety of beers for its liquid breakfast, lunch and dinner. But for now he is not sure until the end whether he can hold out all 46 days.
“I'm an army veteran. I was the first on the team to run a full marathon - 26,2 miles (42 km). I was going through great trials. But it seems very difficult,” Hall admits. “I’m just curious if I can take on the challenge, if I can do it or not.”
While things are going well, except for one unpleasant side effect.
“The strangest thing is my dreams,” Hall said. “I dream about food every night.”
The man added that he holds his post under the supervision of a doctor and, in addition to beer, drinks water daily.
