What do you do after you get drunk and are driving home late at night? Exactly- you stop at your favorite fast food place. That is the reason we all have beer bellys amigo.

Generally in men, the belly is the first place they put on weight. Women put it on their hips, thighs and their belly.
If you consume alot of calories as in alcohol and the munchie foods that go with it, then the belly is where you put on the fat. ESPECIALLY as you get older, like over 40!

The reason I know of is the amount of calories/carbs in beer and if you spend more time drinking beer than you spend exercising then that probably doesn’t help either.

Because beer is fattening with a lot of calories.
