My drink of choice has been vodka tonics for a few months. Silly me, I kept wondering why this wasn't the official South Beach drink (instead of rum [which I've always thought of as a sweet tasting liquor] and diet Coke)--I mean, tonic can't be THAT bad for you, right? WRONG!!! The other day I looked at the label and saw that it's 90 calories per 8 oz and 23g of carbs, 22g of sugar!! Guess I need a new drink!

So true! Seltzer is better for you! Just make sure you ask for it and tell them that you DON'T want tonic!

It's awful for me, but I LOVE the taste of tonic and I hate seltzer. I might have to try it though because I don't think most bars carry diet tonic! Though I did find it in the grocery store--so I can drink at home like a lush at least
