I'm usually great during the day and during the week, but come happy hour... I'm toast.
What do you folks drink to help manage calories intake? I'm looking for all sorts of suggestions: beer, wine, liquor.

Vodka on ice in a tall skinny glass with Pellegrino and lemon or lime juice. If you drink from a tall skinny glass you drink slower....0

Stay away from wine. Drink clear liquor (like vodka), and Michelob Ultra of Bud Select for beer. I love Coors Light, though. Not low in calories, but I will not drink any other kind of beer. Just pre-plan everything and do not go over you amount of calories.0

I like my wine and margaritas... I never tried them, but they make skinny margarita's now, think like 100 cal's each... I like Moscato for my white wine and Lambrusco and Oliver(who has different flavors) for my red wine about 130-170ish each 5oz0

i had a shot of whiskey last night with dinner and it was only 69 calories ..drank it down with lemon ice water0

I stay away from mixed drinks for the most part, so its Heineken Lights 110 cals 7 carbs or Michelob Ultras 95 cals 3 carbs for me.0

Captain Morgan and diet coke is only 60 some calories0

I like the flavored vodkas with "Zero" products. For example, 1.5 cherry vodka and Sprite Zero for 104 cals or 1.5oz Whipped vodka with Coke Zero 133 cals.0

vodka or rum for me... and diet soda or a juice to mix.
if you're beer drinker... then the light ones... but really, why bother?0 -
I have been told that Vodka is the lowest in calories. I do not know exact numbers but with diet pop it shouldn't be to bad. Also those low calorie beers have less alcohol in them than the regular light beer. So you will drink twice as much of them to reach a good happy hour which means your calories are about the same as drinking Coors light versus Bud Select 55. I have a friend who counts every calorie. He drinks Grey Goose vodka and 7up. I hope this helps.0

ultra light beers, skinny girl marguerita...I find it strong, throw in a truvia, on ice. Or rum and diet coke...two limes please! I do better with less of something strong then sip it for a long time, ice helps.0

If your talkin just straight up calorie wise.....MGD 64, its a beer and only 64 calories per bottle. You can have 4 beers and still be sittin at about 256 calories. It has less alcohol per bottle than a regular beer tho. Thats a good thing for me0
