    Vodka all the way- I think it's the lowest calorie spirits drink I know of?!? Have it with diet pepsi/ diet coke/ coke zero/ water and a lemon/ lime slice if you're wanting to keep it as low as possible!!

    I go for red wine (I favor the sweeter varities), and it's just under 100 cals per glass. :smile:

    I LOVE a drink that one of my fav artist's Miranda Lambert "created"....it's called a Randarita! You mix a packet of Crystal Light Raspberry Lemonade singles, bacardi ( I use bacardi limon), water, and a splash of sprite zero!!! It's amazing and it's under 100 calories!!!

    Vodka also happens to be strong and expensive.
    If you want to go out and drink to be social not to get drunk then I suggest white wine spritzers. Half the price of a vodka drink, half the alcohol and still only around 80cal. I also find that having a less sweet taste to my drinks helps me drink slower.

    RED RED WINE!! jajaja I love to drink to but reduced my consumption almost entirely and so when I know I'll be dinnig with wine I try to male adjustments. Thats why I love MFP just put it all in there, make sure to have a great breakfast and the light lunch and dinner, do some exercise and then at night go out for some drinks and dancing, trust me you wont feel guilty. Especially if you dance the night away with a hottie hahaha! ;)
  • Vodka or gin and key lime zero water. I see you can't have tomato juice but for those of you who like bloody marys.... Use okra pickle juice instead of olive juice and use the okra pickles instead of olives as your garnish. They even come in spicy flavor. It's only 10 calories for 4 of them and it still tastes great!
