I have been doing so well with this whole thing ,did good during Thanksgiving and Christmas.. But Now it's New Years and every year I have went to a Bar or Party.. and I do drink.. So guess my question is . Is there anyone else out there that is going out this New Years to Party and if so what will you be drinkin.. since I can't have beer.. what are some other good choice out there that I can drink?

Personally I don't drink others I've spoken to do. They have vodka with cranberry because it's more of clear liquid then say orange juice (which the acid might upset your stomach.) I don't think having a few would be bad just make sure you drink alot of water with it so you don't dehydrate. Good luck and have fun! Happy New Year.

I don't drink alcohol, but we make virgin daquaries and things like that instead.

We are having a party and are going to watch all the amazing fireworks that they light off on my terrace. our house is on top of a huge hill, so we can see the entire village, and also the next big city perfectly. It's going to be so awsome!

I don't drink with any regularity, but I do have a drink or 2 occasionally. We often have Margarita's at our favorite Mexican food restaurant. I have had an amaretto sour...

I have avoided all carbonation...and I have avoided large amounts of hard liquor, as I figured it may be hard on the stomach---but I am somewhat of a lightweight when it comes to drinking anyway (imagine me a lightweight at ANYTHING!!!).

I get migraines with wine---but hear others say they drink it just fine.

Good Luck, have fun....Happy New Year!!!

coffee & liqueurs work - no bubbly. And Yummy!

Happy New Years!!

Bourbon and cran with a splash of pine or apple. Juicy and good and NO fizz....

wine is good too....

Juices can be WAY high in calories so I always order a tall Vodka water and add those quick and easy packets of Crstyal light or these calorie free energy drink powders called Replenish. Delicious ! Just watch the Vodka quantity as it has plenty of calories also. Have fun...

In va it is illegal to bring your own to mix with, a party is different tho.

Also sure juices have some calories and natural sugar but you need SOME calories to survive...also juice is good for you.

Alcohol all has alot of sugar in it but geez, i gave up food to have the band, i am not going to give up life.

I dont think one party is going to make or break your band

Sorry, i am not a calorie slave... if i did I would go crazy within a week.

I don't drink much at all and had not since I was banded, But when I went under 200 pounds, my wife and had a shot of Tequilla to celebrate. No problems upsetting the tummy.
