I'm not sure about carb free, but rum and coke is low, as well as Michelob Ultra beer (2.6 gram carbs and only 95 cal) that's what I prefer...I need to keep it simple! Red Wine is even less than the Michelob, I hear!
see ya!

You know, I bet one of the problems with any alcohol, though, would be the lowering of inhibitions and the increase of impulsiveness. If I go out and have something to drink, my big problem is that I start rationalizing that I "need something on my stomach" to slow the alcohol's absorption rate. That's when I get stupid and get into the pretzels.

White wine has only 1 carb per 3 oz serving--i find most typical serving size is 5 oz.

Rum and coke is not low in carbs.
Your best bet is to get vodka with club soda and lime. That's what I drank when I did atkins. What didn't help was getting so drunk on those that I ate cheese fries on the way home!!! LOL!

According to Atkins alcohol carb counter, the plain version of Bacardi Rum has zero carbs, add diet coke and you're good to go Smile I drink it all the time, well not all the time as I'd be quite the drunk, but when I do drink, this is my tipple Laughing

So frustrated!
8 pounds in a month is pretty great. That is 2 pounds per week. That is the far-end of the range of what you can leave and keep it off.
