Good job SHEboss... took the words right outta my mouth! Vodka LOOKS like water...but that is the ONLY characteristic they share!

It is good you went to the gym today but if u only drank alcohol with diet coke it would have had 0 calories anyway. Only wine and beer have calories but hard liquor does not!

Enjoy yourself tonight and don't worry about the calories, going over even 200 once a month won't make you gain any weight and you could always eat less calories the next day to make up for it!

Happy New Years!

ooh nevermind! I was mistaken lol.
this is patently false. Alcohol has calories, 7 calories per gram in fact, which is more than both carbs and protein. Beer and wine have other carbohydrates which increases the calories, but a straight shot of vodka still has about 60 to 70 calories (80 proof).

My original reply kinda came out harsher than I meant it. Hopefully miaangel, you didn't take it the wrong way. It was meant to sound strong, but not condescending.
