    I rarely drink, but when I do it's a special occasion usually with people I haven't seen in a while. And I don't sweat it :) I'll drink as much as I like and prepare to pay for it the next day. I tend to stick with screwdrivers though.....OJ is healthy right? :wink:

    There's usually oodles of dancing and lots and lots of gut busting laughter involved. I figure it evens out. Or if not...... I still had a damn good time.

    I heart wine... But have given it up until I reach my goal! - At that point... Everything in moderation.

    Try guiness... Less calories than most light beers and comparable to the rest. Plus it's stronger than most non-light beers. Can't go wrong.

    mmm... Guinness. You are tempting me. Only 170 cal in a pint ;)

    I have the same problem when the weekend comes round.
    I am pretty good all week then i have to really watch what I
    consume on the weekend because my weight will go up.
    Vodka with club soda is low cal. I use flavored vodka like
    raspberry. Also light beers from regular. Two drinks a night
    at the most. :drinker:

    I love dark beer. I've gone from 12 pack / week (sometimes 3-4 with Buffalo Wings (that's a different story)) to maybe 1/2 6 pack in a week.

    I typically only have one at a time - ie. 1 with my mexican weight watchers smart ones dinner.

    It's my "splurge" feel good, junk food - one beer.

    I'd rather have a good 100 Cal beer than 2 crappy lite 50 cal beers.
