    Water, white soda and sparkling grape juice for this momma to be :)

    This. I'm in your boat :smile:

    So jealous of the get-to-drinkers!

    Rum and diet coke - and lots of it ! It's the end of the holidays so after that I will buckle down and give up the booze for awhile.
  • I think lemon drops are pretty versatile as a low cal yet festive drink. Im a bartender and have seen many ways of cutting the cals on this one!

    to make:

    in a shaker muddle 3 lemon slices with ice, 1/4 oz triple sec and a packet of sweetener (splenda is my choice)
    add 1 to 1.5 oz of vodka (can use lite vodka such as voli lyte to half the cals in the booze)
    add about 1.5 oz of lemonade (diet lemonade, crystal lite lemonade, whatever works!)

    shake and strain into a cold martini glass, garnish with a lemon (sugar rim adds more cals than youd realize...)
  • I've decided to just drink whatever I want tomorrow and then I'm not going to touch a drop for the rest of the month. Alcohol is a bit of a problem for me - not in an alcoholic dependent way or anything but I know that I waste too many empty calories on drinking (fond of a whiskey or a big glass of sauvignon blanc...) but actually, I don't think I like drinking much, I certainly can't afford to drink much living in London and I get the worst hangovers even when I don't get drunk.

    So tomorrow is my final hurrah and I shall probably opt for Amaretto and Diet Coke.

    Here's my favorite diet drink- water, vodka and fresh lemon. Here's the best way to order it at a bar " vodka, water and five lemon slices..." unfortunately most barsdon't havelemon water on hand. you gotta detox while you intox!

    Jameson. As usual. Why tamper with perfection?

    if it continues as it is looking, as much as possible.

  • either white wine or vodka and diet coke. not gonna worry about it too much though as I won't be drinking for a while after that!!!!!! Am also having a drunken wii party with my sister so will probably be burning off some of the calories lol!!!

    Whipped cream vodka and diet orange soda. Just like a creamsicle and so, so good. 75 calories a pop!

    Bruichladdich Octomore Islay Scoth. Nothing like a peaty scoth to start off the new year right! Maybe a French 75, but we'll see how the night goes and where I end up!

    A couple Palomas. A great alternative to a Margarita. Tequila, limes and diet sour soda, lots of ice. I usually do on the rocks, but you could blend it (it might take longer to drink that way)

    I think my husband and I will finish off our Christmas Ale. It will be poured in a frosted mug with the rim dipped in honey and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar. They are Awesome!

    Something pink and sparkling. But only 2 (or 3) glasses. Hmmm, well, maybe more!

    Don't waste your money on the Skinnygirl products. They are NASTY!!!
  • water. oh maybe i'll go crazy and have a nice cuppa strong espresso that night so that i can stay up until midnight..or not.:yawn: depends on how entertaining the drunken posts here are, lol. (DBF will go to sleep at 8 pm like he always does, we have opposite biorhythms which actually works well- i get quiet time at night and he gets it early morning while i'm fast asleep) .

    Let's see...

    Going to do at least 1x glass of champagne with a wee scoop of haagen das raspberry sorbet.

    I make a drink that's not really a margartia but I call it one because it has tequlia and triple sec (shot of tequila, shot of triple sec, fill it up with water and add some of this: http://www.amazon.com/MIO-Orange-Tangerine-1-62-Ounce-Pack/dp/B005VOOQGO It's good, and only has the calories of the alcohol). Will probably have a couple of those.

    Oh and probably a rum and diet coke.

    I'm having rum and coke.

    But I won't be logging any of it, or anything I eat after about 8:00pm because there's about an 85% chance that I'm gonna throw it up anyway :glasses:
  • Just get me an IV drip with vodka in it.

    Honestly, I am going to be having a mixture of things. Beer for beer pong, champagne for when the ball drops, jello shots for whatever, and probably some mixed drinks with whiskey. Not looking forward to the following morning after that but def. looking forward to one hell of a good night!! :P
