How heavy is your drinking?
 
I almost never drink these days. Maybe once a month. It would probably be better if I had a glass or two or red wine daily, health-wise.

I think I’ve had three beers in the last 37 years.

So not very heavy.

No booze for decades.

Used to be 1 or 2 beers a night… then heart incident… then palpitations.

I’ve had one beer with alcohol in it since early July. I love good craft beer but these days it’s dealcoholized corona or Budweiser zero…

I have lost weight and feel good but surprisingly my blood pressure is still high without meds.

3 beers every night. I like beer but I know any more than that would be bad. At 70 years old I'm not sure it matters though.

I used to like to have a few beers on the weekends but to be honest, ever since my Dad passed away and then my sister's husband passed 2 days later, I just have sort of almost quit entirely. I tried having a few like I would on a Saturday night but I would get very depressed. My wife asked me why I stopped having so much beer and I told her I just got tired of crying so I quit.

I have one or two beers a week and once in a while a glass of scotch just because I think I should. Basically I don't have much interest in drinking. I usually won't drink beer unless it's from a frosted mug from my freezer.

The human body is 60% water. Gallon of water weighs 8.33lbs. Average 4.5-6.5 beer ABV so 5.5 average. Math something.

About 12 ounces. 500ml if it's an import.

Not very much booze, beer occasionally

I should drink more wine

I drink socially only which is not often. Maybe a glass of red once a month. Sometimes Scotch on ice but no more than three of four times a year.

One of my uncle has been on the 12 step program since the late 1970s. He's now in his early 80s and still dry.

Once a week, typically. I’ll have a beer in the afternoon, some wine or whisky with friends, a couple cocktails at a Halloween party. I am sometimes immoderate when I drink at one of my own parties, but haven’t been semi-blotto for many years.

Tonight, being a Wednesday, I've had two large-ish glasses of a good pinot noir. Same as I do most nights. It makes me happy, switches off the day. Life does rather seem to be a bit of a s***storm these days, so it's nice to be able to just not care for the evening.

One beer with the meal when we get dinner out.

KFC911 11-01-2023 02:18 AM

I don't do a lot of stuff these daze that I did for decades ... I just don't want too. Drinking (lots of beer ... occasional shots of good tequila) on weekends and when seeing live music (literally several thousand shows) for decades with friends.... rarely at home ... never alone. WAY beyond excess ... it's what we did ... :(.

I've had mebbe 5-6 beers in the past 5 years ... back then ... I was just starting for the evening....

Learned the "hard way" not to drive .... exactly 30 years ago... to the minute.... I was asleep in my Supra at 6am on the side of road ... after a local band's annual Halloween show ... only time I EVER pulled over too.

"WE" were irresponsible idjuts ... growing up in the excesses of the 70-80s .... times change.... so did I.

It can be done :)

Friday night is date night for my wife and I . We go out for dinner and I will have 1-2 beers . So 4-8 beers per month is the norm for me .

jcommin 11-01-2023 03:14 AM

I'm not a beer drinker but will have one on occasions. I cook with wine and always finish the open bottle. My drink of choice is Manhattans. I will order 1 or 2 when dining out but that is infrequent.

I go thru about a case of beer and a bottle of bourbon per year, mostly around thanksgiving thru new years and then birthdays in march and july for the liquor, the beer is one every few weeks

shadowjack1 11-01-2023 04:06 AM

I have wine every night. My wife and I cook a very healthy meal every day.
