I am going out with some of my girlfriends tonight and want to be prepared to stay on track!

When dieting, my go to drink has always been vodka and club with a splash of cranberry. I always thought this drink was around 90 calories if using 1 oz (or shot) of vodka. Is this information correct? Because when I searched for it on MFP, I got a variety of calories from 80-100.

Can anyone else suggest a low calorie beverage that I could order out? I know there are many when making them at home...but that is not the case for me tonight!

Thanks!!

    that is a good drink to use. rum and diet coke is also good. if the shots start happening. go with Vodka with a lemon slice no sugar. I found last night that the Lemon drop is not what it use to be. They put sugar in the shot with sours. It was a hybrid of a Kommokasi

    Yes I can't spell that one!

    Have fun!:drinker:

    I think you shouldn't stress, you have to break out sometimes. Try to be moderate but have a good time, drink what you like and want not what you should, just make a note to do 50-60 minutes high impact cardio the next day to run it off.
  • Stick with white Liqour, minimize sweet mixers, and you can't go wrong. Have fun!
