So, I've been at this "eating healthy thing" (as my friends call it) for a long time...and over the years, I've heard some pretty interesting "methods" when it comes to loweing calories while drinking alcohol. Two glasses of water for every drink (which I think is just a cure for a hangover...ha ha), Beer that tastes like water (why bother?!)...etc etc. I know NO ALCOHOL is best...but hey, I enjoy a few beverages with friends on a Friday night. What about you???

    I usually go with red wine, becuase I dont GUZZLE it like a beer or hard alchohol. haha

    but if its hard alchohol, I like vodka with club soda and just a SQUIRT of cranberry juice. delicious.

    This! Rum & Diet is my regular beverage of choice. No carbs and relatively low in calories.

    I know NO SUCH THING! Alcohol is meant to be consumed. End of story. My choices are red wine, white wine, or when I don't have many calories left, rum and coke zero.

    I always have one or two good beers on Friday night. Tonight I'm looking forward to a couple of Marble IPAs, then I'll switch to vodka and soda water w/lime twist
