I was a big beer drinker. I switched to wine and liquor. Also doing the low carb craze giving up bread, pasta, pizza, chips, cookies, etc. Lost weight, feel clear headed, no insulin spikes and crashes. It's great. Beer is like liquid bread.

Kind of annoyed. This marathon cycle I decided to really go all out and gave up beer. I'm a 2-3 beers a night kind of guy (not the wimpy stuff either, the good double IPA 8% stuff). I also upped my mileage ~15 extra mpw. I've been tracking my weight on a weekly basis and I have seen almost no reduction. Sometimes I actually go up a pound. I know there is fluctuation with hydration and stuff but I would have really thought 3 months of no alcohol would have led to a little weight loss. I must be making up the calories somehow. Sigh.

Have you run your marathon yet? How did you do? Who cares if you weigh less, how did you run?

Is this true? Can you post some evidence? I'm interested in knowing more. (I'm assuming, too, you're talking about naturally occurring HGH as well.)

False. Alcohol helps lead the way to sex. Sex boosts testo. Testo boosts HGH. Therefore, alcohol boosts HGH. Bottoms up.
