    My drink of choice is Captain Morgan and diet. If you really only like vodka, then I second the flavored vodka with diet or soda water. This is a good resource too: http://getdrunknotfat.com/.

    Flavored vodka club. My favorite flavors are absolutes cherrykran and their pear flavor (not together).

    Why don't you just drink vodka with diet coke?

    Aye.

    How about gin and tonic?

    Vodka + tonic with lime or lemon. Or vodka with grapefruit juice.

    Gin and slimline. You can get some lovely small batch gins, and if you can get your hands on fevertree tonic - heaven :)


    Edit: OK random question and totally off topic. I see some random photo next to me with CNN or FOX or something. It's not my profile pic. wth??? And when I go to look at my profile it's there too ...

    I don't see anything next to your pic here. Do you still see it? Is it an ad or something? I've seen some odd things happening here ever since the "upgrade" thing was announced.

    Tonic is bitter. I personally don't like it and it is higher in calories than club soda (zero in club soda, vs 110 per 10fl oz in tonic water)

    That's what I am hearing. I will definitely be trying the flavored vodka with club soda and maybe lime or something. Thanks bunches!

    Me just drinking without being mindful is what got a lot of my weight I originally lost right back on me so yes I am trying to find alternatives...Not to get wasted but to enjoy a few low calorie drinks with friends.

    Vodka and lemon slices is what I do
    Sprite zero is yummy with vodka and some lemon slices.
    Drinking vodka is my splurge on weekends or special occasions so if out I do the above if we are mixing at home we get 5 calorie cranberry juice and sprite Zeroe

    Yes, it's a matter of what you like. I like the taste of vodka tonics; can't drink vodka with just water. Diet Sprite and Sprite zero are yummy, I agree!

    Stoli or Tito on the rocks, a little dirty (olive juice), with a couple of olives.
    I also enjoy wine, or craft beers in moderation.

    Most bars don't have a variety of diet drinks though..I hate that..Only Diet Coke normally. I wish they did have like Sprite Zero etc..
