    I just chose to “ignore” how many calories were wasted in wine and beer. I too am a beer snob, while my husband and I can walk into a bar with 100 varieties on tap, he’ll stick with his Miller Lite – ew!

    But now, I’ve ditched the wine during the week and on the weekends, I make wine spritzers – chablis wine (1/4) mixed with lime selzter (3/4). It tastes just like a Bartles & James to me!

      Ew indeed!

      I’m trying to limit the drinks to the weekend, too. It’s harder in the summer!

    I LOVE beer as well, but here in canada we use clamato and its similar to tomato juice, so I am used to having caesars, yumm yumm, I love Iced Coffee as well!! Lately I have been addicted to the Starbuks Lime refresher with no lime – although its not alcoholic still very refreshing! I also discovered Molson 67 calorie beer and that is very good, although you might pass its like a light beer!

      I’ve seen that! I’ve never tried clamato and honestly it kind of scares me……..

    I’ve never checked to see how many calories are in an IPA, that’s a bummer. But when we need to cut back we choose to only drink on the weekends, even then it’s only 1 day and that has worked well for us. It is a good reminder that drinks have a lot. I would much rather eat my calories than drink them.

      Sorry to rain on your parade. I was definitely disappointed when I realized how many calories were in my favorite beer. 🙁
