Hi, I'm 19 and still a student so quite a lot of my social time is spent in pubs! I will of course be exchanging pub spending time for gum spending time! but odes anyone have any idea about what sort of alcoholic drinks have low calories?

cheers!!

Hey, I'm a student as well...keep in mind most alcoholic drinks are very high in calories, so I can't think right off the bat which ones are low in calories. Not sure I ever heard of one. Generally what I usually do is order a virgin strawberry dacquriri (sp), or water.

Hi chubby88,

Here is a website that lists the calories of hundreds of alcoholic drinks: http://www.calorie-count.com/calories/browse/1401.html.

Personally, I stick to white wine or hard liquors mixed with diet pop or sugar free fruit juice. I savor a few drinks over the course of a night, and focus on the company

yeah cheers that sounds the right thing to do, my friends are over at the moment I've had 2 vodkas with diet coke. but i think i will just drink water for the rest of the night. I am only on day two of my diet so i don't want to be evil. but i imagine that i will be tested by going to pubs etc so its good to know! but i think "I savor a few drinks over the course of a night, and focus on the company" is the best advice for those both on a diet and not!!

chubby,

Ooo - sounds like fun! Best wishes
