[koiman]

i understand that if you are on a low carb diet the best option is spirits, say gin or scotch, but if you are on a low fat diet and still want a drink in an evening. whats the best option?
red wine?

Apart from Baileys, there is absolutely no fat in booze whatsoever.

No that is correct wardy, Voddy is nil pois on the weightwatchers chart and so it is quite ok. I have been on a low fat diet and lost 10ibs and that is with having a few drinks. I am now considering a career change and applying for a job as the new mature look 0 size.

Michelob lager is low carbs...available in most supermarkets but quite expensive. Might be worth checking it out.

If you are on a low fat diet you are in effect controlling your calorie intake. If you want alcohol as a treat, decide what is your favorite drink and have one.
All alcohol is empty calories and high in calories. So you can only have it as a treat rather than working out which is the lowest amount of cals and then having two or more.
For some people their treat would be two squares of a chocolate they really enjoy rather than a low fat rubbish bar, or an ounce of quality cheese rather than 2 ounces of low fat tasteless plastic.
