Default Re: Drinking for dieters

If you are interested low carb diet, I'm not talking an all out one like Atkins, but more like South Beach, then you have decent options.

In South Beach and similar diets you eat good carbs and balance fiber against fat. You do get to eat carbs, protiens, and fats. There are plenty of things on the phase I, II, and III lists to eat and some things you should stay away from. No calorie counting and no carb gram counting either. Just lists of foods to stick to, mostly avoid, and completely avoid.

To the point: If you go with such plan then vodka w/ diet Mist or diet sprite or Rum and diet cola are options. So is Gin and diet Tonic. Add lime or lemon to any of those. Also you can go a bloody mary route if you choose very carefully and don't do it every day. Add Tobasco.
