Question: Trying to lose weight and lift weights yet still want to drink...Suggestions on low calorie/carb drinks...? I'm working my butt off this summer trying to get in phenominal shape but im still in college and love to drink about twice a week.

Answer: White wine is a pretty good choice, relatively low in carbs and alcohol. Mix it with seltzer and a splash of lime to make a spritzer. Very refreshing and not too bad for your diet. Whatever you do, don't drink that low-carb sorry excuse for a beer, Michelob Ultra. It's really nasty.

Question: What is a Low carb alcoholic beverage? BEST DRINK? "Healthy" drink? I have a high tolerance for alcohol so if you could think of one with high alcoholic percentage please AND healthy that'd be great lol? :)

Answer: Unfortunately all alcohols that i know of are just empty calorires--meaning they will break down into sugars easily. I know that they do make some beers that are lower in overall calorires (like the ultra-lights etc... but honestly I don't think they taste very good)... This is my two-cents, if you are going to go out occasionaly and have drink with friends/family, then just go out and have fun.. If you drink regularly, I would recommend either reducing the amount of drinks you would have a sitting. Or another option is, if you are into mixed drinks... you can try and mix with reduced cal/diet mixers... this might be hard at a bar, but it is at least an idea... Cheers

Question: Is gin the best alcoholic drink for a low carb diet? Would it be best to drink it with tonic? Are there better choices?

Answer: Most hard alcohols are zero carbs. Beer has lots of carbs. Gin is a good choice if you like the flavor of it. Vodka or tequila would be fine also. Whatever mixer that you like is fine. If you want low carbs ask for sugarless tonic or mixers. Regular tonic is full of sugar and has very high carbs. Sweet liqueurs have carbs in them, the sweeter the more carbs. Baileys would have alot of carbs. Free Delicious Smoothie Recipes http://www.squidoo.com/smoothieparty
