    drink 2 real beers that comes in around 300 cals, Much better to have 2 great beer than 5 of that lite S%^t.
    hear, hear

    I agree 150% two real beers can pack a punch.

    I agree with real beers. Guiness is only around 120-130 calories. Much better than 64 or 55- yuck!!

    Another go to drink is vodka/soda with whatever fruit you like. Depending on the vodka, it usually comes in around 60-80 calories a drink. Best of luck to you! Have a great Labor Day weekend!

    Yeah good idea. I'll have maybe 3 shots and nurse a diet coke.

    A shot is around 56 calories (vodka). So I can do 3 shots with a diet coke and throw in a beer. That sounds like a night to me!

    If your like and you hate beer and you like rum, vodka and etc... Just so you know the more % it is the less calories! So 100% vodka is better than lower then that. And try ti stick with the clear drinks. :)

    Alcohol IS calories. Light beer has less alcohol, that's why it has fewer calories. Guiness is a good option because it is a light beer that doesn't taste light and you can nurse it for longer. Extremely hoppy beers, while not light, also take longer to drink. I also like drinking strongl anise flavored liquors like Ouzo or Absinthe because you just can't guzzle that stuff AND it tastes good watered down.


    Yup, 55 select is a 3/2 beer!! ...shameful! haha

    I get a vodka + water and add crystal light. Tastes pretty good. Or I'll get Jack and diet.

    Try vodka and seltzer water with lemon and lime. Flavored seltzer waters like cranberry or raspberry lime taste the best. Just make sure you don't have it with tonic water.

    If you can find Ty-Ku Soju, its awesome! Half the calories of vodka and if you mix it with diet sprite it tastes great! Its relatively new but a lot of places are carrying it.
  • coke zero..rye..and a lime - tasty...
    smirnoff ice light + coors light = rocket (delicious)

    Isn't it funny how bent out of shape people get over a light beer?:huh: I personally, hate regular beer, but I certainly do not take it personally and get angry if someone else likes it......jeesh!
