    Too much sugar in rum. I would go Vodka/soda with a lime.

    When I started losing weight, I made the switch from beer to Captain & Diet. Granted, I don't drink all that much, but every little bit counts. And whereas my Yuengling has 135 calories (even a Coors Light has 104), a C&D has only 50.

    Have a great time tonight! Think I'll pour myself a glass of shiraz... :)

    Yuengling Light Lager has 99... but I don't think the 36 calories is worth bothering.

    I like Bud Light Platinum. I'm not usually a fan of beer, but it's a stronger beer therefore I don't drink as many. It's 137 a beer, which isn't too bad.

    Lol heres the truth about alcohol.

    Once ingested it takes VIP status for the body to metabolize and expend.
    So anything you eat or drink with the alcohol has a chance to be partitioned to storage.

    So drink whatever you want no mater the caloric number.
    Enjoy it and dont worry so much.

    Chances are youll burn off whatever gets rolled into storage in a few days.

    If you can, sneak in some some crystal light to mix with vodka.

    Bud Select 55 only has 55 calories...tastes alittle watered down, but it's worth it if you need to lose weight.

    im a student, who loves partying whilst at uni. so i worry about calorie intake when out as well. i just tend to stick to shots, or vodka with diet coke or lemonade. It hasnt affected my weight at all tbh! Hope you have a great night out tonight!
