How many of you will be indulging in some green beer? (or other green liquors)
I won't, I don't drink anyways. But I may have some green broccoli, lol.

    It's a well known fact that green beer contains roughly double the calories of normal beer :wink:

    I will be indulging in a couple sips of a Shamrock Shake. I love them but refuse to spend 500 calories on an entire one.

    I'm not Irish and I don't really pretend to be on St. Paddy's...
    I can't drink today either as I am in a St. Paddy's day 5km race tomorrow morning...lol So I'll be indulging in some green beer tomorrow after my race...at the Steam Whistle Brewery in Toronto.

    No alcohol for me, but I did eat some spinach for breakfast!

    I guess I see the point of green beer, but it's not worth it to me. If you're just want to get wasted, then I guess that's fine. But I want to enjoy my beer. The bars know the drunks will drink anything. They're definitely not dying the QUALITY beers green!

    I don't drink anymore because I'm living the sober life in recovery.... But I'm working tonight at a bar so I'll be serving lots of beer.. Does that count?

    I have not had a drink in about 4 months, so I'm going to drink tonight! I'm gonna burn off a bunch of calories with my Zumba class, enjoy my towns St. Patrick's day parade. Then eat some corned beef, potatoes and carrots, then jut kick it on the futon with my hubby and were gonna get our drink on together! Yes, I'll put it in my diary, but I'm just counting as a cheat, in case I do go over my calories :drinker:
