    "don't drink at all!"
    What? People say this? That would not go over so well with me.

    What I like are gin and diet tonic and vodka and diet ginger ale. When I want a small splurge, I will have a dry red wine.

    If you can stomach it, just sip 'em straight.

    Develop a taste for whiskey or vodka over the rocks. Not only will you not have to worry about getting mixers and stuff, everyone will automatically assume you're hardcore :P

    Of course, to get REALLY efficient, lowest cals would be moonshine
    NOTE not actually advocating you drink moonshine.

    I really try to go for wine or bloody marys if possible. They're my fave drink anyway and at least you get tomato juice as a mixer instead of a ton of sugary calories. :)

    Very interesting article here:

    Alcohol, Calories and Weight
    http://www2.potsdam.edu/hansondj/AlcoholCaloriesAndWeight.html

    A little bit is good for you and may not affect your weight loss! Great news for wine and craft beer connoisseurs! Poke around there - there are several interesting articles that are pertinent.

    I'm a wine lover, too, and I find ways to work it into the plan.

    Crystal Light Raspberry Lemonade with either a shot of tequila or vodka. I carry the little packets with me when I go out and just ask for a water and a shot and mix my own. 65 calories per drink is pretty good.

    My 2 favs right now, ALWAYS Diet and Captain!! And my newest Lemon Crystal light and Tequila, add a squirt of lime juice. Also, Mojitos made me splenda and Diet Sierra Mist. I grow 3 different kinds of mint, and have 4 flavors of rum so there are lots of combos on a Saturday night...
