    Almost never. I rarely go to bars or anything and, when I do, I'm usually the DD. I'll have one or two mixed drinks here and there, but I never saw the point of getting wasted and spending the night puking and the next day feeling like hell. I've been drunk 2-3 times and none of those times were particularly enjoyable.

    I avoid beer except when making beer can chicken. I probably drink 4 or 5 beers a month. When I go out with friends, I go vodka and tonic or gin and tonic. Gotta pace myself, but those are pretty low calories compared to beer. Like 100 or less per drink. Less if you go for diet tonic.

    Most of my drinking is at home (I live in a dry county). One of my recipes is 2 oz of vodka and 16 oz of Crystal Lite Lemonade so I can log my vice. I have at least two a night during the week. Weekends without kids? Easily add several more...

    I've cut out beer with lunch, but still have one with dinner every night.
    Plus an extra six pack on the weekends.

    I work hard to make it fit into my weekly calorie budget, without compromising nutrition.

    Does the Queen keep Corgi's?

    Or as my American friends say "Does a bear *kitten* in the woods"

    Or to simplify.. Yes occasionally

    I try not to, my hangovers are brutal and wipe me out for the whole of the next day so it's really not worth it.

    I will now and again have a night out with my best friend (once in a year because she had babies) and with the insignificant other (once every 3 months)

    Friday night has become either writing essays or gym and steak night!

    http://getdrunknotfat.com <---huge database of calories in certain brands of alcohol. Includes ABV, a grade for the alcohol, etc.

    Not that there are many quality drinks that you could get wasted on with less than 600 calories. lol

    I was drinking a lot more until I figured out how many calories are likely in that big margarita and then the six pack I had twice a week.

    Yellowtail Moscato is cheap and I actually like it. It's a little over 600 calories for a bottle, but I've only had something to drink once in the last 3 weeks. It's no longer worth it for the calories. I'll factor them in and remove quite a few from earlier in the day.

    It is VERY hard not to eat a lot of food when drunk!

    Hmmm... I will have to remember this database.

    Thanks!

    I think the last drink I had was in may. I don't do it too often.

    I don't drink a whole lot. A typical month for me would be 3-4 beers, 2-3 glasses of wine, and MAYBE 1-2 shots of vodka or tequila. There are months that I don't drink at all. It just varies.
