One of those days where you just need it to end. Which brings me to a fitness question: When having one of those days that you just need to end, does anyone have a "healthier" beverage of choice?

I'm going to assume you mean an alcoholic drink... in which case I make room for a couple glasses of red wine. Other than that a vodka soda or water with a lemon and lime or a bourbon and diet coke are my go tos.3

By the time I get to a drink my nutrition dance card is filled for the day so I don't care about anything other than calories.6

Nice! I rock the vodka soda...low cal option compaired to IPA's2 -
Yes. Definitely referring to adult beverages!0

Vodka Soda with Lime1

Pure Blond beer - 92 cals/bottle.
It’s apparently low carb, though I really don’t care about that, I like the lower cal count and it tastes good to me. If we are out I’ll usually alternate a beer with a soda water (plain with just some fresh lemon or lime) - it’s fizzy, and social and no cals.

Ooh, I wouldn't mind a grand (or otherwise!) mariner, on the rocks or anywhere. You can hold the cranberry splash though 😉😝😂2 -
Glass or two of wine. Sometimes it fits in my calorie goal, sometimes it doesn't.0

I take a couple shots of either whiskey or rum (approx 105 calories each). Diet soda is an okay chaser.0

Eeeeek, I got to ease myself into that head change 😂1 -
Gin and tonic, wine, or a hard seltzer.1

I'll usually go for a vodka and (diet) sprite, but if I have a little bit extra in calories I really like a screwdriver. I'll usually water down the orange juice anyway because it's tart.1

When i drink, it's usual a margarita with anejo tequila3

In the winter I usually just do Vodka Rocks or a glass of Red Wine. Now that the weather is nicer, I'm going to play around with some cocktails and just to come up with sugar free varieties. I'm really hoping to find a recipe, or come up with one, for low carb pina colada0

I don't do low carb but I make a low cal pina colada with unsweetened almond milk, coconut extract, frozen pineapple and fat free vanilla yogurt for thickness. With some rum and a maraschino cherry of course.
