Social drinking & your weight loss

When you go to a club or a pub or simply have a drink during a party, do you think of how many calories you are taking in? In a way it takes the fun out of "drinking" if you are forever tracking calories right? My friend after seeing some of our weight loss success, has gone over board - he's tracking all the drinks he's "drowning" as of yesterday ....lol....

We went down to one of the our usual haunts to chill. Guess what, he usually order beer (245 calories)  but yesterday he went with white wine ( 84 calories ) . I wanted a bloody Mary (140 calories)  ,I always drink that but he said no , & get a wine for me. Someone wanted a Jack Daniels & coke (199 calories) & that got him really mad. In the end we were all  'forced' to drink the white wine! Hmmm.... are we going to look even better from now on with all this wine drinking? Sure hope so !
