    minute maid has a "Just 15" lemonade. Actually it come in a bunch of flavors, I tend to stick with lemonade. I mix it with vodka and soda water. It's good!

    I also gave up alcohol because it affect my sugar and now I have diabetes and take meds for it. It really wasn't worth it but as I said a can of 7up and put a crystal light in it makes a great drink...add both to a glass and stir when you add the 7up to dissolve the crystal light. Hope you try it.

    Spend twice as much per bottle of wine and then drink half as much as before but really enjoy it.

    When I had a drink problem (OK in reality a problem not drinking...) I would volunteer to drive so that meant no alcohol.

    Tonic water with a big squeeze of lime is the drink I can fool myself is really a G&T.

    For me its the feeling. I like to feel buzzed. Always been a vice of mine.

    I do once a week. ... on average. That is cutting way down on my end.

    But there has been weeks where I didn't drink. I try to fit it in cals and accept that some of the cals will be empty and macros will not come close to being met. Its worth it though as I do not plan to never not drink again! No fun! Gotta have my type of fun sometimes! lol

    I used to drink 2 - 4 beers/cider or glasses of wine a night but have cut down to once a week. I do 2 workouts on this day to account for the extra empty calories.


    That's how I've manged it as well. One day a week I'll enjoy myself and work out extra hard.
