Alright, I am going out for a friend's birthday tomorrow where drinking will be prominent. Any advice? If I drink ( ok, when I drink) what is the best choice for an alcoholic beverage?

    Nothing with juice or soda or simple syrup. But even if you do, keep track and log it. And keep a full glass of water in front of you. Be sure to drink a lot of the water between sips of booze.

    Thanks. I will be sure to keep the H2O on hand at all times.
  • Are you a beer person or a hard alcohol person?

    I try to stay away from drinks with a lot of volumn. My moto is drink small and strong. So shots (2-3) work well and then I nurse a light beer. Sometimes I bring my own Coke Zero for Jack and Coke or my own flavored seltzer water for gin or vodka. My fav tequila drink is a double shot of Hornitos with 3 limes wedges and a splash or sour mix and sprite. (I'm happy just thinking about it).

    Whenever I make it home that night (or morning) I drink as much water as I can. The next day more water and cardio.

    I hope this helps! Happy partying....

    vodka and diet coke. Or get a straight up pour of something you have to sip, like scotch, and nurse it like a two week old baby.

    Vodka & water w/ a lime is your best bet! I swear I don't get as hungover when I drink those all night either. Beer, unfortunately, is the devil.

    Happy friday!


    I enjoy a glass of red wine daily. When I want something stronger it's a Gin on ice with a dash of lime ;)

    Everything in moderation =)
