[True or False] Hard alcohol is low in calories.

:shock: False, false, false.

I did some research recently to try and determine the most alcohol-efficient drink, namely the most alcohol for the least calories. Yes, if you are really serious about your diet, drinking should be OUT, but I still want to have a little bit of fun 1-2 nights a week. Yet even one night of lawless drinking can really add up.

I was always under the impression that hard alcohol is much more low calorie than beer, but god was I wrong. A shot of pure alcohol has 162 calories. A shot of Vodka has 69 calories, yet is only 40% alcohol.

I figured out the calories/alcohol ratio for a bunch of popular beers, alcohols, and mixers, and some of the stuff is pretty suprising (such as Jagermiester is terrible with 294 calories per 1oz alcohol absorbed.

1 gram of alcohol has a little less than DOUBLE the calories of a gram of carbohydrates.

1g Carbs = 4 kcal.
1g Alchy = 7 kcal.

People who say hard liquor doesn't make you "fat" are fucking stupid. My ex-gf was one of them. Damn she was fucking stupid. What a stupid bitch.

Remember that time in Gladiator when maximus was fighting that masked guy with the axe and the lions? Well, the guy gets smashed in the face with the shield, then stabbed in the toe with the point of the axe. She goes: "That's so stupid, you wouldn't bleed from your mouth if you got stabbed in the foot!"

Goddamn.

Then when the movie ended and they left the emperor there and lifted Maximus up to bury him and honor him, she complained saying something stupid like: "How can they just leave their emperor there on the ground and pick the other guy up?! That's so disrepectful!"

The movie fucking went over her dumb cunt head.

Jeeze.

gosh jeez golly.

anyways, good info! thanks for the heads up.

ya i pretty much just do vodka and diet coke. but a pint of vodka is over 1000 cals then when your drunk u dont give a fuck and want to eat some delicious mexican food and then u wake up and ur metabolism is fucked for up to 3 days and your testosterone is lowered.
