I have a couple of glasses of wine on a Friday Saturday and Sunday night sometimes I can finish a bottle one night 😬 🤪 It's something to enjoy and look forward to of an evening whilst watching the tv in these current times 🤣
How much alcohol is everyone drinking at the moment? Honestly 😆

Same as teddy..I'm sober and smug.

I want to give my body the best chance to fight this bastard!

Alcohol never makes me feel depressed, I love it! If it wasn't poison and didn't give a hangover... I'd happily continue.

It is a weird thing being both a stimulant and a depressant.

The bottle of wne and 2 gins is daily, sorry.

I don't drink at all and never have but don't ask about my chocolate consumption!

That doesn’t add up to 2-3 bottles a week then, surely?

Sorry, much confusion and thats without a drink. The friend consumes a bottle of wine and 2 large gins, more at weekends.
I am tapering down successfully.
I was pondering how friend could be OK on this amount. Thanks

Oh no, that’s my mistake — sorry!

I have a friend like that. She’s on 2 bottles of wine a day minimum, maybe up to 3 or 4 per day at the weekend. 😱

I have to really work at it. I try and have 4 dry days a week. Otherwise I would probably drink a bottle of wine a night and that makes me fat, depressed, unhealthy and I don't sleep.

@MacbookHo, does she show any signs of wear and tear?

BooFuckingHoo2 · 12/11/2020 12:58

I was drinking half a bottle of gin 5 nights a week.

I’ve cut back to nothing as it was becoming a problem!

3-4 bottles a day......how are they not sick?

My alcohol intake has shot up about 6 fold, to a couple of glasses of wine a week Grin. I am however about to do some cocktail making glasses Gin so this week will be a bit higher. The suddenly increased alcohol intake might complicate the zoom quiz on Friday might [grin Grin
