NYE is tomorrow and I, like many others, will be ringing in the new year with some alcoholic beverages. However, I don't want to blow my caloric intake. Suggestions?

    Hi I will try to stick to single measures and take ice to make the drink longer. I like vodka soda and lime, gin and skinny tonic, and a glass of champagne is always good (they are always small glasses and mostly fizz!) Happy New Years!

    Vodka water with lime :)
    Generally stay away with any drinks with a "name". They tend to pack a lot of sugar and calories.
    If you're a beer person (which I think I remember seeing you drink beer), then usually coors. Or Canadian 67. But most Coors are about 100 cal per beer.

    Myself, I love to make pink lemonade crystal light (mix it with water first) then mix in some tequila. I've used other flavors to mix with vodka :) Happy New Year!!!

    I will have diet apple soda with vodka! Only calories from the vodka, but will log the soda also. I may have some diet orange crush also! I started on the diet soda's 2 months ago! Only those without caffeine. I prefer my caffeine to come in coffee form! hehe:smile:

    If you're a beer drinker I'd go with Coors or even Bud light. Canadian 67is...gross (I'm a loyal Canadian girl) I've had that crap sitting in my fridge for a good year now...That said, Ceasers are not a bad choice. The Clamato has far less calories than pop or juices. You could also go beer and clam to slow the drinking.
    To be honest I'm not counting tomorrow. It's my get out of jail free card. I will however, be working out like a beast in the am and making sure that I have healthy snacks as I am the host of the party.

    I'm a beer girl too, which does me no favors, and I can't do the diet sodas. I'd rather skip drinking then drunk that! Haha.
