Does beer really have less calories than say rum or vodka?

maat13101 asked:


I have been trying to loose a few pounds and one of the ways I am doing that is buy giving up my Captain Morgans and Diet Coke and my Skydrivers, and switching to beer.

It seems to be working, as I have lost 5 lbs in about 10 days, but I don’t know how much is the diet and how much is the switch in booze?
I seem to have a high tollerance for carbs, meaning my body seems to burn carbs way faster than most, so I don’t usually look at carbs.
