Bublu Bhuyan Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 What's the standard amount of alcohol you consume on a given day? A couple of pegs? A quarter? 6 pegs? A half? If it's beer, how many bottles?
velu Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 If i take draught then i usually take 2.5 liters and usually i take it twice in a week. ( 5 liters ) Normal beer mean 1.5 liters and i usually have it twice or thrice in a week ( app 4 liters ) So in a week i consume arnd 9 liters . :yay: But when i was in india i use to take it on alternate days and i usually take 2 bottles of strong beer .. It comes around 5 liters per week. But i take lots of chicken , egg and nuts when i drink. :nervous:
EnterTheVoid Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Seriously, what the **** bubble gum? You are diagnosed with diabetes at a really young age but you experiment with heavy drugs and alcoholism? You really are an idiot if you keep repeating the same mistakes, in your case, it is somewhat self inflicted I fear. Meh, to each his own.

Nah, I merely asked this to figure out whether I drink more than the average bunch.
EnterTheVoid Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Oh gawd :wall: :wall: I feel for your general practitioner, he must feel like he is banging his head against a brick wall.
Anonymous Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I only drink on the weekends usually but do drink two or three glasses of wine when I go out for dinner on weekdays. Apart from that Beer and whisky are my favorite drinks. Lets say I drink about 5 pints and maybe two or three whisky pegs in a week on an average.
King Khan Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I quit alcohol after 7 years of heavy practice (10 yrs in total) due to some medical alerts, since then about 4yrs passed I dont feel addicted to it anymore. I'm quite happy with my a pack of Rizla per day atm. :king:
Swing_n_Speed Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Hmm let's see, while partying on the weekends, so perhaps a can or two of beer. In addition to that during the week maybe a drink of Kahlua or a cocktail or some red wine. That's probably two glasses of alcohol. So cumulatively in a week I drink like two cans of beer and 2-3 glasses of cocktails/wine.
nikred Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I stopped drinking anything except beer about 6 years back. Now, I drink beer maybe 2-3 times a month but do not go beyond 4-5 pints.
vvvslaxman Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I can count how many glasses i have had in my whole life. Haven't touched in the last 10 years.
yoda Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I have may be 10-15 drinks in a year, mainly beer, during office parties.

I'm quite happy with my a pack of Rizla per day atm. :king: How did u do it? I quit smoking cold turkey, but alcohol addiction is hard to quit. esp when you get addicted to hard liquor. Alcohol consumption in moderation is not bad, I am told, but the hard part you are the moderator, you go lenient sometimes. The best way probably is to hit the gym, and eat regularly.
Desi Cartman Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I stopped smoking and started drinking :P and now I need to stop drinking so Im working on it. from 1.5 ltr in 2 weeks ( say 3-4 days a week) to 1.5 lt in a month or month and a half. I am getting there. reducing alcohol is easy as compared to giving up smoking
Precambrian Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Daily a quarter vodka (180 ml) with Bacardi Breezer (330 ml) (smirnoff - absolut - magic moments), weekends/holidays it becomes half (375 ml) with a couple of Breezers. esp last 3 months have been dire. Have decided to stop as I eat too much when I drink and has gained 20 kgs in last 4 months.
Precambrian Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Worst thing is I started out only recently as an avid drinker (1 yr back) and basically wanted to test my dependence and now I realize I am dependent on it. Now i want to test my willpower whether I can stop it once again permanently. Otherwise planning to get medical help.
Crookbond Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Question - Is it true that 1 peg a day helps lifestyle? Heard from ex army men and Parsis.
