    If u liked fruit loops as a kid...look up LOOPY vodka. I mix mine w/ sprite. It tastes and smells like fruit loops.

    That sounds yummy! Does it taste like the Sprite Remix they used to make? I always thought that tasted like fruit loops.

    Is that pinnacle? Pinnacle has marshmallow flavored, cotton candy flavored and a bunch of others. Probably not so low calorie though. I haven't checked though.

    I second the dirty martini! Vodka, vermouth, splash of green olive juice and you even get a bonus olive snack lol. Low cal, low carb and classic. Plus I've noticed guys are usually impressed by a girl that appreciates a good martini or a good scotch :)

    That sounds like a stiff drink. Every shot is 100 calories.

    OK, so its friday and I decided to have a few drinks. Usually, I make my drinks with about 4ounces of vodka and 8 ounces of whatever Im mixing it with. Does that seem like too much?

    Not unless you are pounding one down every half hour for three hours. Just use something either low or no cal for a mixer.

    Nope not at all...Id say every hour and a half to the drink. And Im using a Zero Calorie Arizona Iced Tea. Not the best tasting but it works.


    I don't see a problem then.

    try the vodka with a flavored club soda or seltzer water with a piece of lemon or lime..no calories or sodium except for the vodka

    This is my plan when I drink. Raspberry flavored seltzer is great! If you're not into sugary drinks like I am, you'll love it! At a bar I would order a vodka and soda water with lemon and lime.

    BTW - I can't handle artificial sugar in any form...so its the real stuff or nothing at all.

    vodka tonics with lime. If shots, lemon drops. Lower cals and still get all the fun. It's all about making better choices but still leaving some room for "fun". :laugh:

    This. I do vodka with tons of ice and soda water with a lemon or orange wedge. I like to convince myself that I'm hydrating while I'm drinking.

    I just looked this up today....basically one shot is an ounce...and that adds up the calories, oh well right you don't drink ALL the time.....

    My husband says if you mix it with crystal light you can't taste the vodka

    This is completely true! You have to be careful because it could be dangerous, haha. You cannot taste the alcohol AT ALL.

    OP, that doesn't sound like too much to me as long as you're okay with dealing with all the cals! 4 shots is normally what it takes for me to get tipsy/drunk, so that's about how much I drink on party nights :P
