I drink very rarely... when I visit my parents they always have one glass of wine with dinner, but otherwise I have a very rare night out/meal out approximately each month/2 months.

I don't miss drinking, and before weight loss goals began I didn't drink much anyway and very happily volunteer to drive on nights out so I have an excuse not to drink,but I do enjoy a drink depending on the occasion, so what is lowest in calories to keep my guilt to a minimum and progress to a maximum while still enjoying a little tipple when I'd like to?

    I'm pretty sure that a vodka and diet coke/slimline tonic is about 60 cals.. i'd go for that! i try and do that but i'm a sucker for a glass of rose haha :)

    Vodka tonic. It's not the tastiest but it's the lowest in calories. I used to be a vodka cranberry girl but I haven't come across a single place yet that uses REAL cranberry juice, and even if they did there's way too much sugar especially if you're having more than one drink.

    Personally I usually stick with wine, but a friend of mine does rum and (diet) coke to keep the calories in check.

    For me a great drink is Absinthe. The drink contains a shot of absinthe in a glass with a single sugar cube on a slotted utensil perched on the rim then water is dripped on the sugar cube until the cube has been dissolved and the louche happens.

    Not a lot of bars have Absinthe so I can also go for a good quality rum and coke.
