Are you over drinking ?

[Albion_Dave]

Probably.

 

[Garage_Doors]

No, I'm not. All good here.

 

[El Presidente]

Never tasted alcohol.

 

[Hamilton]

I'm not over it yet, no.

 

[Yoda]

Usually at the recommended limit or just over with 2-3 cans at home during the week, but do my best not to go more than that. Hardly ever go out and drink but football days are another matter.

 

[Return of the Rev]

Probably drink 2 times a month on average ABOUT 2 PINTS EACH SESSION

 

[Tricky Dicky]

The government advises that people should not regularly drink more than the daily unit guidelines of 3-4 units of alcohol for men (equivalent to a large (250ml) glass of 13% wine) and 2-3 units of alcohol for women (equivalent to a 175ml glass of 13% wine). ‘Regularly’ means drinking every day or most days of the week.

A large glass of 13% wine puts a woman over the daily guidelines. Another small glass (125ml) will put men over the guidelines

Not a lot to go over the limit.

Yup. I had a small bottle of beer over xmas, maybe on xmas eve, I can't remember. That's it for the last 2 months or so.

I hardly drink at all during the week . I work evenings, so going out is difficult, plus I'm not that much of a home drinker.

I guess I catch up during the weekend though. Football Saturdays can be heavy ones ,as I also go out Saturday night. Plus then I like to go to pubs on a Sunday.

I'm pretty much the same. Only time I drink Monday to Thursday is if the Albion are at home, and then it's just a couple of pints because I have to get up at stupid o'clock for work. But then I do tend to go a bit ott at weekends, and getting into double figures of pints drunk is not rare, especially as you say on football saturdays. I guess technically, according to whoever decides these things, that makes me a binge drinker.

 

[happypig]

I quite like going to the pub and would be happy going there a couple of times a week, having 3 or 4 pints and not drinking at home but the Mrs always has some reason why she doesn't want to go so we end up having a drink at home and I will have a bottle of wine or 3/4 pint bottles of ale. I often top the evening off with a (rather large) brandy.
I keep thinking I should cut down or stop completely but, apart from football, I'm bored shitless with my dull home life, dull (but reasonably well paid) job and virtually non-existant social life.

 

[BLOCK F]

Don't drink as much as I did in my younger days.Don't feel the need and can't cope with hangovers anymore.
Drink very little beer now,only 1or 2 pints a week unless away on holiday.Probably drink too much wine at home,but love it.Also enjoy a decent cognac and malt whisky.
Can't imagine a life without being able to enjoy a drink.

 

[BLOCK F]

Never tasted alcohol.

Why not?

 

[seagullmouse]

Doing Dryathlon. Amazing how much more energy I have already. Sure it won't continue after January but hoping to cut down.

 

[Hamilton]

Yup. I had a small bottle of beer over xmas, maybe on xmas eve, I can't remember. That's it for the last 2 months or so.

I has a small bottle of beer on Xmas eve as well. Can't remember much since then either. Must be the whisky.

 

[albion534]

think the Government should sort their own stuff out before they worry about how much i drink

 

[Trufflehound]

I'm not over it yet, no.

Over Macho Grande?

 

[Uncle Buck]

Self confessed binge drinker.

Not had a drink since early Sunday morning. Suspect the weekend will be messy, but heh ho.

 

[Bold Seagull]

I did read that to enable your liver to recover you should:

Not drink for 1 day a week
Not drink for 1 week every month
Not drink for 1 month every year

 

[rool]

Absolutely, once I start drinking I don't want to stop. One bottle of wine isn't enough for me, two or three will satisfy me.
I attempted to do the dryathon but lasted three days into the new year, however, so far I have just shared 1 1/2 bottles of wine and had a can of Stella since Jan 1st.
I don't suffer from hangovers which means I don't suffer any short term consequences of drinking too much.
I either am already or on the verge of alcoholism as my other half stopped me drinking any more one evening and I kept popping into the kitchen to swig from a Hennessy bottle. Frequent memory black outs and one trip in an ambulance suggests I have a problem.
I am giving myself this chance to moderate the drinking myself before going to the doctors.

 

[El Presidente]

Why not?

Ees complicated!

I think your first sentence ought to give you a clue.
