Good shout thanks, just downloaded the Drinkaware App and going to give it a go. Frightening results to start, need to reduce before it gets away from me!
I look four months pregnant (alcoholism)

You've got to reduce you're intake or cut it out altogether. More exercise is the way forward. Getting rid of a beer gut is really difficult and takes time.

The more I read about the effects of drinking the more it scared me, so I did the only sensible thing and stopped reading.
I’ve never enjoyed drinking by myself, it’s a social thing for me and only at weekends (not criticising you btw).
If I have a drink on a Sunday, Monday at work is awful. I just can’t function the same. Mind I wasn’t always like this I could do 7 nights a week at one time, I have no idea how I managed it, I think there is a bit of an age thing now.
I also go to the gym before work now, it’s an incentive not to drink because I’m up at 5.00 and wouldn’t want to be done for drinking and driving on the way to the gym.

Get a hobby, preferably one(s) that involve exercise. Swimming and cycling are my two (with a bit of forced running).

My friend used to have a big slurp the night before a gym session at 7am, not sure how he did it. Eventually started having these horrible warm farts that made him check his underwear after each one. Went to the doctors and they gave him tablets. The farts weren't as bad but the smell was worse so he knocked the drink on the head all together.

Correct ,in my experience and of watching others do it as soon as you start "having a few cans" after work your on the slippery slope.Most think they can handle it but are unable to stop as "I've been to work all day I deserve a few cans if I want "

Exercise will get rid of a gut. Anyone saying otherwise is stupid.

A 'beer' belly is just fat, isn't it? It's just that for most men, however you pile it on and particularly as you head towards middle-age, round the waist is where is goes. So calories burned > calories in will reduce it, whether you do it by exercise increasing the calories burned or diet reducing the calorie intake or both. Obviously if you keep drinking, it's harder to make that equation work.

I'd more concerned about my mental health than a beer belly.
Sounds like you need help marra.

It will stop you getting to a low body fat percentage no doubt but a beer belly can be sorted by diet and exercise, well just diet really. Problem is in order to diet you have to cut down on the drink. Not stop completely though.

Well yes there is. If you eat more calories than you burn you'll still put on weight.
