Having kids has made me a proper lightweight 2 glasses or red is the limit usually 3 times a week. I just can't cope with a 3 year old bouncing on my head at 6:30am after drinking anything more.
ThisI used to be quite bad. Most nights during the week, friday night, saturday night & all day sunday session.
Now i'm lucky if its a couple of beers during the week, maybe a beer on a friday, couple on a saturday & dry sunday.
I just decided to cut down as i wanted to see my youngest growing up & try to shift weight gets harder the older you get.
Doesnt help that i have a https://www.beerhawk.co.uk/perfectdraft-keg-machin... constantly filled :-)

Did dry January, dont drink at all mid week really unless perhaps there is an occasion that warrants it, there hasnt been this far.
If I am on holiday I will have a few most nights but when working, dont on "a school night", I go in my local for a couple of pints once a week or less, have a few at home Friday and saturday, maybe four pints or a couple and a couple of glasses of wine, have stopped buying spirits for afterwards, no good comes of it.
Am down 45 pounds or so since Sept, so want to drop the last bit of weight, keep on track and not get back into bad habits, can still enjoy a drink, not every night though, I think with booze that is is very enjoyable, but there is an equal and opposite effect, we crave that enjoyment and how it enhances social occasions but go overboard, too much, too often and then wonder why we feel crap, are skint, overweight and getting various medical problems, we need time off from booze. I watched a relative rink two bottles of wine a night for years, always miserable and I swear he was trying to relive good times, it was like he couldn't understand why it didnt work, but booze is only part of a given situation, the place and the people are a big part, drinking gallons of wine on your own wont ever be that memorable.

I know lots of people who are proud to be "beer fit" from lots of practice. Well worth reading up why it doesn't affect you much. You're well on the way to causing lots of harm to yourself.
Indeed, tolerance is built up, like anything else, with your liver being cranked up into overdrive, it'll deliver a large bill one day.
