The first step is to ignore the advice of others to eat less meat and drink less beer. Lets be serious, if it was that easy you wouldn't be in this situation. We'll save the protein shake talk for the other threads! And Light beer? That's hardly an option!
Now the gym... of course you find it hard to go, it's boring and generally no fun! Does anyone really like going to the gym?
My solution, more sports! Seeing as you're still on the meat and beer diet I'll assume you're reasonably young. So... take up a new exciting sport, or better yet? Lots of new exciting sports! Mountain Biking, Kayaking, Climbing, Hiking, Skiing, etc. It's all good! Now heres the best part... Once you start getting more involved and meeting more people you start drinking more beer as part of your work out!
ie, Meet buddies to go participate in said activity, have awesome time during activity, work up crazy hunger and thirst, head to pub to shoot the about activity while enjoying beer and burgers. Repeat 3-5 nights a week and weekends!
The best part? You'll be in great shape! Not, look at my 6% body fat bench twice my weight while I get tired 30 minutes into activity because I'm low on energy after having not eating shape... Instead you'll be in I can ride my bike/climb this mountain and ski all day without getting tired shape!
Now a warning...the gym goers here will discount my theory. This is based purely on jealousy! They're bitter that you'll be out having fun and drinking beer while getting in shape while they drink whey protein shakes and look at themselves in the mirror in the basement of some gym...
