    Double shots of Grand Mariner and a bottle of water. Talk, talk, laugh, dance. *Repeat*
    I don't recommend or even condone it but....yeah...this is what I do. I feel great the whole time.
    It never seems to affect my weight either way.

    I prefer to have a well-crafted beer. Probably something thick, possibly dark, and definitely tasty. Life is too short to drink crappy light beer. Just make some room for the calories and enjoy!

    Sip tequila or whiskey or your favorite spirit. Add a low cal mixer if you like. Enjoy a pint of water beyween drinks. voila.

    Wine, crown and diet, or michelob ultra. I'm not really a beer fan so I usually stick with the wine or the crown and diet coke.

    You must condone it if you're doing it yourself; otherwise, it would be a bit contradictory, yea?

    Vodka because it buns fat and helps me to build muscle. Also like scotch and wine

    Vodka burns fat?

    Yes, Vodka is the probably the best thing to drink to reduce body fat

    BWHAHAHAHAHAHA.....aaahhhhahahahaha....no, just no.

    And to the OP, if you are not a big drinker, just drink what you want. Although I had always been of the opinion if there was room for mixer in the glass, there was room for more booze.

    drink what you like, just less of it. if you like margaritas, order yourself a skinny margarita without salt.

    Beer only, occasional red wine, but hardly ever.

    I usually avoid margaritas due to the high caloric content. I rather drink vodka with lime sparkling water or club soda. Light beer is not that bad neither (120 calories per bottle I think).

    Pretty sure we've got a troll on our hands, ladies and gents. That's a pretty good one though hahaha...

    Here's a good link for you:

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2014/03/28/the-wonkblog-guide-to-efficient-drinking/


    I swapped to bourbon with a splash of water. I still get taste and alcohol without the calories of a mixer.

    Beer. It makes me feel full so I only need one. Even if it's not light that's about 200 calories versus 300+ in a margarita (that I could easily down 2-3 of. LOL)
