    The obvious one is no alcohol at all :( but thats no fun lol, I have been told if you are gonna drink the best is something like Vodka and tonic/diet coke/diet lemonade as no/low carbs. You could just out of interest add to the drinks section of your food diary and see what the results are then delete.

    Very few drinks have fat in them (other than cream liquors like Bailys) The lowest cal drinks would be clear spirits with diet sods or soda water

    I go for gin and slim tonic or vodka and Diet Coke. You get your alcohol without the guilt!

    Personally, I do tequila shots. Straight up. Stay away from sweet liquors and beer. As hard alcohol goes, vodka, whisky, and tequila are the lowest in calories (from what I've found). If you need to mix or chase it-diet soda. have fun! :drinker:

    okay...... no lager, beer :(, no wine :(, but a spirit straight gulps nervously...... or with a no cal mixer is your best option, g&t, whisky, vodka n whatever but 0 cals - the cals arent the full story tho with alcohol you can stay within your cal limit and still knock your weight loss off track tho ...... if i have a bit of a bender weight loss is a no hoper even if I stay within my calorie limit......pi@@er

    Do an extra hour of cardio and use the calories to have whatever you want! ;)
