    roughly 1 every day, 3-10 on the weekend if I choose beer over liquor. (I'm in college)

    In future I suggest adding humor to your jokes so they will be more recognizable.:slight_smile:

    If get together with my college buddies I can do 20+ in a day but in an average week I would say 24-30.

    I try to stick to the CDC recommendations; 15 drinks per week. I used the Alcodroid tracker for about 6 months to get the feel for what each size is (Enjoy By is 4.2, or close, drinks for instance). I've been very happy with the tracking, both health-wise and wallet-wise.

    I try not to drink during the week but occasionally, I will drink during the week. If I do drink during the week, it's usually only one. I try to workout during the week and it somewhat interferes with being productive. On the weekends its a different story, its about 5-6 per night.

    15-20 unless there is an event or friends in town.

    I work at a brewery so I try not to count. It would get depressing.

    try to average 7 a week, not more. no longer have the metabolism of a 20-something, so... I treat every beer like a meal.

    Due to trying to reign in my beer budget, the fact that I am starting to work out again. I am trying to limit myself to MAYBE one a night. Or take an off night and have two during a basketball game. But its primarily about the budget.

    Roughly 7-10 a week but this is mostly because I'm trying to get my cellar number down. I intend lower this number soon but we'll see if that happens. Just too many good beers that keep popping up.

    THIS. I keep telling myself "I wont buy anything new that comes out..." and then I justify buying a 12 dollar limited release stout. Gotta tame that urge.

    6 - 12 beers a week depending on bottle size, ABV/style, mood, and how much sh*t I need to get done in the given week. Having an 8 month old daughter has definitely changed the volume consumed in a week.

    4-6 alcoholic drinks (95% beer) consumed mostly on the weekend. This seems to be the number that fits my lifestyle the best. I have considered adding a couple more post-gym weeknight beers/wine pours/scotch pours in the rotation because the negative health effects would be minimal, if any, but I worry about a snowball effect.

    I think it's best to step back once in awhile and assess the situation. Do you really want to drink 2500+ empty calories per week?

    0-2 90% of the time.
    0-3 5% of the time.
    > 3 5% of the time.

    I realized this will vary by season. Typically 1 a night in the months I drink much higher ABV beer, winter. I drink 1-3 a night when it is much warmer out and ABVs are really low.
