If your drinking does it really matter ? Stick to lite beers and neat alcoholic beverages..1

I have a vodka and OJ a several times evenings per week. It hasn't hurt me so far and I've lost 24 lbs in the last two months. I tend to lose weight the next day from the nights I've drank. I guess it dries me up. And I don't eat as much.1

I like vodka, soda & lime if I'm wanting not to 'spend' many calories on alcohol.1

i drink beer (usually heavy dark beers), champagne, whiskey, wine... i just make what I'm drinking fit.1

Vodka is a huge Yes! I love it with my Sprite Zero and a fresh twist of lime. I also have cut back to Michelob Ultra, it is the best beer for your buy. I warn you though if you where a craft beer nut like me, it took sometime to warm up to the Ultra.

Vodka mixed with anything & Coors Light...I'm more of a volume consumer so if I try to drink heavy beers, I'll have 6 of those just like light beer...
just make sure you account for the calories and it works like anything else.1 -
Gin and tonic.

Vodka and lacroix is good! That way you are getting some hydration in too :P0

Vodka and magnesium citrate. Clean ya right up. Low calories too!1

To my knowledge vodka has the lowest calories out of all alcoholic drinks1
-
A Harvard study shows that moderate tequila use can lead to weight loss because of the Agave used in it.1

Rum and Diet Coke
Vodka diet lemonade
Rum and diet cream soda
Gin and tonic

Isn't there a new study that shows diet soda makes you gain more weight?

The nearly 30 pounds I lost in the last year suggest otherwise. An article on Jillian Michaels' website isn't a study - there's nothing in that article other than "research shows..." without links to said research.
Also, diet soda isn't bad for you. Another member here just posted this: http://seriecientifica.org/sites/default/files/scl_enc_butchko.pdf
Aspartame and other artificial sweeteners aren't dangerous.

Vodka soda with lime. I keep Crystal Light in my purse to add to the drink.0

Vodka, gin and lite beers are the second best options, after abstaining if course!

I enjoy the occasional nice Islay Scotch neat or a dry red wine. Unless I'm looking to get white girl wasted. Then all the drinks. Followed by deep fried food and a trip to McDonalds and a day of me hating myself and my life. I don't get white girl wasted much.0

Gin and tonic, none of that diet tonic stuff as I end up adding another shot of Gin. Which also works too
