    Lucky bugger!


    If you mean from a "low calorie" perspective, then its vodka and diet coke / tonic or gin and diet coke / tonic... apparently.

    My diet drink: vodka & club soda with lime

    I usually try to do a Stoli O or something flavored like that to keep life interesting. It tastes clean and I don't wake up feeling bloated.

    Vodka and soda! Flavored vodka is a few more calories but a whole lot more flavour! A splash of cranberry if you've been a good girl.

    My poisons of choice...

    A nice merlot... 175ml - 84 calories
    Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum... 50ml - 100 calories (with diet coke of course... but I prefer it with diet coke anyway)

    To be honest... evenings with the Captain have probably helped me stay sane through the early weeks...

    I am going to assume you don't drink everyday so, I say drink whatever you want, as long as it is in moderation

    if you are getting an alcoholic beverage, might as well enjoy it.

    and if you are still worried about consuming alcohol and health progress you can also read this.
