Then keep it clear! Apparently the clear spirits are more waist friendly than any other form of alcohol.  For example, a vodka and soda water has half the kilojoules of a schooner of beer and a third of those of a glass of red wine. Adding ice dilutes the alcohol even further! So try a nip (or two) of vodka in a tall glass over a handful of ice and fill with club soda.  Add two slices of lime and two slices of lemon (squeeze some lime in on top) and attach a slice of lime to the side of the glass.  Simple, alcoholic and kind to your waist.  Oh, and if you hold your drink with your non-dominant hand apparently you'll drink less.
