    Smirnoff Ice is always my go to. Every bar I've ever been to has em, and they taste exactly like Sprite/7Up. I despise the taste of alcohol, but I don't really taste it in those. After about 2-3, I'm feelin pretty good. (Yeah, I'm a super lightweight :laugh: )

    I recently tried a Bud Light Lime-A-Rita and those aren't bad.

    I factor my calories ahead of time and as crazy as this sounds, I bring my own diet 7 up in my bag. I like whiskey (68 calories) with a Diet 7up OR I whip up a Skinny Girl martini. Yum!:happy:

    Gin and tonic is my go-to drink! It's my favorite alcoholic drink.

    gin and vodka are good choices- one ounce of gin has about 64 calories (that's a jigger full) so a gin and diet tonic or diet 7-up and lime is a lo cal and refreshing choice.

    Usually if its a restaurant I'll order water or tea. If its a bar, I'll have a beer or two. Although, I'm trying to cut down on the beer. Such empty calories!

    A variety of things depending on where I go.

    -A nearby Italian restaurant: Moscato wine.
    -Granite City restaurant/brewery: giant mug of their light beer
    -Japanese restaurant: Sake and/or hot tea
    -Pool hall: bottle of Corona with a lime slice.

    If calories are tight its plain ice water for me.

    Start off with rum and diet coke then finish off with everything/anything in sight. I'm a sloppy drinker :ohwell:

    If I want alcohol, I drink vodka and soda. It's about 121 calories...

    I usually just drink tap or sparkling water if I'm not drinking alcohol though. Don't be fooled by "diet" drinks though!

    I like that idea. Thanks. I will try plain soda water with lime. Nobody will be the wiser.

    Usually, I'll stick to diet coke, or low-cal *flavoured soda water.

    But so help me God if the tequila shots sneak out...
