Drinking while watching your weight

[cranberry]

Ok I just started going out to clubs/bars. I'm not a big drinker or anything like that...I will not be going too often, maybe once every two weeks.

Right now I am eating healthy stuff generally everyday and running 30-45min almost everyday, and I plan to go out with a group of ppl next weekend to the bars. What kinds of drinks should I be drinking w/o getting a beer gut?

A couple of weeks ago when I went (1st time) I had a few mixed drinks (they were small though) and a BudLight...

I heard mixed drinks are the most cals so next time I am going to avoid those.

Any thoughts?

thanks in advance

Yeah... when I'm watching my weight, I'll drink light beer. Apart from that, as long as you aren't having more than a few drinks, you should be fine. I know some people who order diet coke with their Rum and Coke or Jack and Coke, but I think that's going overboard....
