In everything I do, I’m either all in or all out. Haven’t found another way to be in moderation. My daily drinking is usually 3-4 beers or half a bottle of wine.

4. Normally drink Friday - Sunday. I used to be at 0-1 during football and basketball season, but I cut down on my during the week drinking because I noticed I was more tired and less likely to go to the gym the next morning.

None except for occasional. That being said I had no intention of drinking Saturday til Aubie started their JHS mojo. Had a 6 pack of Kona all after the 3rd qtr. started and before game ended. Didn’t hardly feel it til game was over. I was a bit drunk once the adrenaline wore off.

I'm 48 and never tried alcohol. My dad was an alcoholic and I promised my mom when I was a kid I would never be like him and I will never ever drink one drop of alcohol. She's 90 and still asks me if I have kept my promise. Lol

Sunday-Thursday every week, but I don’t drink every weekend either.
Only time I drink during the week is if I’m able to get out to the golf course and then it’s just 1 or 2 beers.

I generally have a cocktail or 2 every night. Nowhere near enough to be drunk but to take the edge off the day.
For many years I'd give up all alcohol consumption for the entirety of Lent----not even on weekends and suffered no ill effects.
Now, at my age, and my take on organized religion and their beliefs, I just don't care to do that anymore. I prefer to enjoy whatever years I have left without giving up things.

Similar tendency. But if I drink good beer, 4 pints would make me feel like arse. So the standard beer on hand is Miller Lite just shy of frozen. But it's hard to control the volume of slushy beer-water.

5ish. Some weeks I have at least 1 drink from friday to sunday. Sometimes no on Friday or sunday.
Pretty much never drink Monday-Thursday

4-5 - generally when I am working. If I'm off then 1-2. Figured out a long time ago my mental capacity is greatly diminished if I drink during the work week.

Im in college. I drink Thurs-Sun.

This is me. The wife and i can easily polish off a bottle of wine every night at dinner. So for us we maybe don't drink 1 or 2 nights out of the week.
I usually go completely dry during lent.

I only drink on Friday and Saturday, but I used to drink more. I do this for health reasons since I am older.

Used to be 0. Now it's 7. Wish I started sooner. It's never too late to stop drinking, baws.
