    if i only drink a few then i log it in and try to allow the extra before hand. if its a weekend and im gonna party i wont log them but once i start drinking i dont stop moving. i will dance all night and throw in some zumba moves so i dont think it catches up to me too bad.:drinker: could use a cold one now as a matter of fact but not drinking before my zumba class. that could get ugly

    Beer beer and more beer :D. I loooove beer. Drinking amstels at the moment which are surprisingly low cal for a beer but I like pretty much any beer except VB or XXXX. If I'm out clubbing I'll drink scotch and soda water because I love scotch but hate scotch and coke. And scotch and lemonade is too sweet.

    :drinker: OMG!!!! I must have my Cabernet Sauvignon or my day will not be complete nor will my family speak to me. I can be a real beast at the end of the day! I sit at a desk for 8 hrs and sit in traffic for at least 90 mins a day. I have TERRIBLE Road Rage :explode: and if I don't take time to relax I would never feed my family:ohwell: . I would yell at them :devil: for hours on end instead of preping a meal. I must also get my work out in daily. Without it, my attitude would be on 10 all day. I recently read in; eat this not that saki, rum and vodka are best for calorie counters. I say consume what you like as long as you get moving for at least 60 min a day. Best of luck to you all!!! Or... should I say Cheers & Bottoms Up!!!! :blushing:

    I have no regard for calories when I drink. It might as well be poison if I don't like how it tastes.

    This list is probably indicative of a slight problem. :indifferent:

    cheap chardonnay with curry
    cheap champagne and mango or guava nectar
    malbec and dove dark chocolate
    tawny port wine

    tequila (Cazadores)
    vodka and cranberry (for alcoholics with a UTI)
    rum and pineapple
    Jack & Ginger

    Asian pear martini at Cheesecake Factory

    It's essentially impossible to get CAMRA-type real ale in the US except that a few brew pubs are beginning to mount engines. That or make it yourself, of course.

    If you're drinking real ales, a dark mild is probably your best bet for calories. Even then, though they won't be Bud light because of their residual body and sweetness.

    Pretty much, it's all about willpower and moderation.

    Yummy! I'll be having some vodka (straight up and neat) with my best friend tonight! Only 69-ish cals per ounce and I usually am at a nice buzz after the 4th or 5th ounce. And yes, I allotted my calories for it. :)

    BAJA BOBS!!! They have zero/low cal mixers to go with the liquor. Have LITS, Margarita, Pina Coladas, Etc.... They are awesome too.. You still are drinking the cals a bit with the liquor but if you stick to clear liquor its much better than colored alcohol. Probably not so much for beer.. but with the mixed drinks you save anywhere from 100-1000 cals!! Check em out out bajabobs.com (shipping takes like 3 days too!)
