    I am agreeing with this. It's my one thing that "I" get to look forward to for "me" at the end of a long day.

    I do this. But have you tried drinking a DIPA with spinach? Automatically dream of Pepperoni Pizza.

    Maybe I picked the wrong profession..

    If you haven't maxed out on your daily exercise maybe up your cardio routine so you can consume a few hundred more calories ie half a slice of pizza

    I only drink on days that I can and that I feel like drinking. That's anywhere from 2 to 5 days a week. On my drinking days, I have anywhere from 1 (work nights) to hangover (once or twice a year).

    I might be an outlier in BA land, but I drink for the flavor and not for the buzz. Mostly.

    1 a day during the week, usually make it something hearty. On the weekends all bets are off, but probably ave 3/day.

    I don't drink every day because I live with my parents, and their rules until such time as I move out.

    But even if I were living by myself again, I probably wouldn't do more than 1 or two per day, maybe every other or third day, it gets too expensive haha.

    I go in phases...summer I will drink 3 to 4 beers a day while still working 65 hours a week. Winter time I tend to focu more on exercise and will only have 1 day a week where I eat whatever I want and will buy 2 really good 4 packs of beer.

    If you must restrict your diet to 900 calories, you are on a full on weight loss plan, which if you are not obese is not too healthy. So yeah, maybe, but that's the life of a model, I suppose. As a middle-age attorney living in the Midwest, it is not a world of my experience.

    The question should be whether to drink once or twice per day. One with breakfast and one with dinner, or just one with breakfast?

    Drink what and how much you want as long as it does not affect your work or family. If it does, rethink your habit........

    I drink fri/sat/sun and might have a random beer during the week after a stressful day at work. A little while back I went 3 weeks in a row drinking at least 3 beers a day. I put on 8lbs so the drinking everyday I cant do even though id like to

    Same problem here. One beer things are probably ok. Two and already bad decision making happens. Three and it's carte blanche to drink anything and head to crif dogs

    I love to drink beers everyday, not get drunk but drink one or two maybe three everyday, but recently I decided to switch it up and I am not drinking during the week. I actually do enjoy beer more when I can have it...so maybe there is something to this.

    I drink until I feel like not drinking. Usually every day. Some days, I'll have one beer on my days off. Others, I'll kill a 6 pack and a bomber during the week. Hell, I'm 26, I can still drink that much and not have an old man hangover the next day.

    Suck it geezers!! :grinning:

    I can not believe that 3 beers (5% abv)per day can be damaging to anyone 160 lbs or heavier now that I have thought about it..

    I have a beer almost everyday and by "almost everyday" I mean 9 out of 10 days so pretty damn often. I have a stressful job (only because of my supervisor) that also keeps me physically active. I run very often as well. I don't like ice cream, cake, and most deserts so calories aren't a problem. On work days I eat a small breakfast and then don't eat from 7am-3pm.

    I prefer my beer daily, I eat healthy otherwise so calories aren't a problem.

    I do love my cheeseburgers too so frig off! Mr Lahey drinks the liquor and I pound the beer and burgers. (only TPB fans get it, I love the cult fans)
