    I drink the low-calorie beers (Bud Light Select 55 or Miller 64) - they taste awful, but I don't feel like I'm deprived. Also, Jack and Diet Coke (or most liquors mixed with diet soda) are only about 70-100 calories, and you can't guzzle them without getting sloppy. Plus, if you're going to a nightclub, dance dance dance! Great calorie burn :-)

    Have fun!

    Alternate booze, spritz perhaps and sparkling water.

    I go with the lowest calorie route - shots with chasers of water :P Although, it's just because I've realized mixed drinks and I DO NOT mix well together!

    I have a friend who does that ALL the time! She drinks Vodka-waters with a lime wedge...I haven't tried it because I'm not that big on vodka, but I agree it's a great way bto cut cals :-)

    I think Vodka/soda is one of the lower calorie cocktails available. With that said, I usually go for the michelob ultra, as i'm not really a hard liquor drinker.

    It was a night club and besides the awkward walking in place while taking my one in only shot with a water chaser it was non stop dancing from 10=2 then after club walking the downtown strip for about an hour i have been on the move ever since lol. Only problem is i started my food diary as early as 3 this morning and my excercise for today i started at 12:00 am since i was on a constant move since then I totally picked bad foods to eat u kno tht college kid mentality lol.
